Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] Assistance with schematic and pcb- 3way active crossover

2006-12-03 by david.mcauliffe@propadog.com

Thanks for that.

What I'm really looking for is some help going over a circuit that has  
been hacked from stereo back to mono and making sure that all the  
wires connect up (so to speak), on schematic and PCB.

Any takers?
