So I've got this now:
It follows the original Goodman's XO with the mid and tweet being out of phase.
I haven't connected in series yet, because I wasn't sure what way round to connect them? + > Bass > Mid > - ? Will that be a problem if the mid is out of phase? Just to clarify, why is the treble from the woofer an issue? Are we talking damage to mid or the way the thing sounds? Because I don't think it sounds bad at all how it is.. If it's a sound preference thing I might try both for a bit. If it's a burnt mid thing, I'll change it immediately.
The 22uF is a Clarity Cap. The 4.7uF is the red AE cheapo. The mid has had a liberal coating of Plastidip and that's it. I'll wait for it to settle and keep listening. I sprayed the paper until it was quite wet and did both at the same time so they match.
I had to repair the cones first on these. The PVC ring was rippling and had moved and the centres were pushed in. I tried popping the centres out but they kept springing back in. They'd obviously been like that for a while. I wet the centre with water and gently made a tiny pin hole with a safety pin and used that to lift it back out - seal with PVA (tiny piece of Rizla if needed - decoupage!) afterwards. PVC rippling can be fixed by using hot air to soften the adhesive and manipulate the PVC ring back into place. And finally: PVA on the cone to glue back to the PVC.

PVC issue (google images): Sorry I should have taken a pic of mine. See the ring has crept up by several millimetres at the bottom. Keep the hot air moving you only need 10-15 seconds once the gun is up to temp (if that!) and you can push gently and slowly the ring back into place. I also had to manipulate it in other rippled areas even though it didn't look like it had slipped. The PVC probably just stretched with time.
After fix and plastidip (actually mine):
Got a bit of orange peel on my plastidip at the top on the PVC which looks ugly but I quite like the way they look. I really should have taken a pic of them before, they were a shipwreck!
So what's the verdict? The series/parallel issue aside:
I owe you a tenner.
They are - but when altered like this they are better IMO. However, I am going to give the pristine pair to my Dad.
