    Thanks for asking. I appologize for failing to update.

    We were planning to work on the crossovers as a father-son project over the holidays, but Zack brought his girlfriend and they were hardly ever home. (He's a 2nd year Electrical Engineering and Computer Science major at MIT. She's a 3rd year law student at Boston College.)

    In addition we were waiting for the rest of the Jantzen coils to arrive. (They showed up about a month ago.) So the current plan is to build at least one of the new XO's next week when he's home for spring break.

    I do have a few questions about the crossover parts inventory that I never got answers for:

    I received 4 "extra" 15 ohm resistors, and I'm missing 2 @ 7.5 ohm. Am I supposed to double up the 15 ohm resistors in series to make 7.5 ohms?

    I'm also missing one 2.7 ohm resistor (2 req'd), and I received a 2.2 ohm resistor that I don't need. I assume the 2.2 ohm resistor was sent in error. (The markings are very hard to read.)
