Doug, Nigel,
It was the "K" that didn't have the inductor, same cartridge, amp and speakers but slight variation in the crossover. In my Continental, I have put a switch across the inductor, which I can access through the coin box door, so that I can experiment switching it in or out depending on which phono cartridge I use. The inductor just cuts the higher frequencies to the 12" speaker.
Norman.

Hi Doug,
Go with your suggestion, it will be fine. I've had a C1 for 30 or so years and sorted the crossover out with those values years ago.
Regarding the coil. Some had this, and some didn't.
We experimented years ago. If I remember correctly, Norman Macraes (a member on here) didn't have a coil and mine did..tbh having the coil there or not didn't make a great deal of difference..just replace the cap and resistor..
Regards
Nigel

Dear People, I hope someone can provide a little guidance for repairing or replacing the crossover for my Continental 1. For reasons too complicated to list I bought the unit for renovation from a dealer in Coventry and started the renovation but it then had to stand for about 20years. I have only now continued the renovation. I decided to look at the crossover and I find that there is a replacement bass driver and a horn tweeter that is not connected (to the crossover or anything else). Please note that it is not a piezo tweeter. Thecrossover is also not connected to anything and appears to be the original. It has a coil, value unknown, a very old electrolytic .cap - 3.0 mFd 50V one 27 ohm 10% resistor and one 22 ohm 10% resistor. Can anyone please suggest how suitable this might be? I plan to replace the resistors and cap once it is know what should be there or alternatively what I should replace it with.
