Spica TC-50 crossover repair


Recently got a pair of Spica TC-50 speakers in a trade. Nice looking speaker that from all accounts is a nice sounding set as well. Original boxes and original stands. Problem is one of the speakers has a crossover that was in the process of being repaired and is missing the three coils. My question is: is this worth the time and effort to repair or should I give up the dream? I have a schematic that lists the parts required, but the web site I got this information has a caveat that reads "Spica carefully graded and tested each woofer. Then based on those parameters a service code was assigned and paired with a matching crossover. For this reason, it is unlikely that your components will match these exactly" I assume if I were to replace the coils in one crossover, they should also be replaced in the other (complete) crossover. However, this statement leads me to believe it may never be completely "right". Or will difference likely be negligible? Lastly, are any electrical DIYers out there that can tell me any relatively easy ways to test the woofers as Spica did in order to select the proper coils to rehab these speakers. What is the opinion out there? Thanks, Whyland
