  I also have the Radian 475 and my woofer is a Jensen P15LL.
  
  XO at typical Altec 2 way of 1200Hz.
  
  These DIY two way variants are da bomb. And super cheap in comparison especially with modern compression drivers. I sold a $2k vintage Altec 802B and replaced it with a $200 used Radian with no downside to my ears. I think the Radian has a bit more energy on the top which alowed me to get rid of the Altec top end booster network in the XO.

    in the past with this same Z19 xover and results were very nice. My brother came over when I was letting play after i finished it. I was playing Wes Montgomery on them and he said he thought there was a real guitar player playing in the room, and he was a really good guitar player. That demo over was using cheap film caps too. but this new one will be using the Erse caps. I bought these right before ERSE stopped making them here in the USA.
    
    So this time I will use the Radian 475 and should be enough top end that I', looking for. I heard the 475's a while back and they do cymbals and strings nicely along with vocals.
