Vandersteen 5 HP Filter settings for RCA unit

I need to get the Vandersteen Model 5 High Pass Filter settings. I misplaced the tops to my filters and would like to know the correct settings. Thank you in advance. If anyone lives in New Jersey that could lend me their RCA HP filter for a day, I could measure the setting on your units versus mine to confirm, that would be great.

Happy Listening.

You need Vandertones CD available download
off Vandersteen website.
Hook your Volt Meter set to AC Volts up to the speaker wires
at the amp or speaker with the High passes start at 50 k.
Play track 27 on repeat which is 1000hz and adjust your pre amps volume control to read as close to 1 Volt AC.
Next go to track 30 which is 100 hz and if the meter reads .707 or as close as you can get your set. If not start from beginning on trk 27 adjust dip switch settings repeat various listed settings until you get there.
