Wilson Audio MAXX resistors


I am about to replace resistors on my MAXX-1 which is in use for the last 10 years. There is no information in the instruction manual and i have absolutely no idea which resistors are to be used for mid/hi freq.. Does anybody have any information on the effect and procedure for resistor replacement/selection.

Al,
You beat me to lt, reading this thread with interest and for education as well.
Pbnaudio's explanations and reasoning appear to be undeniably logical based on sensible engineering principles. Why use a resistor in this manner?
As an outside observer I find Peter's decorum admirable and he's been very respective of the Wilson product. He has noted an unusual application for a resistor in a speaker and clearly explained he opinion{hardly "chump" behavior}.Yes, there are many ways to skin a cat. There's no reason to aim an insult toward peter{Montana comment} for offering a well reasoned viewpoint.
Bjcab, in terms of "chump" do you have a mirror nearby?
Charles,
Bjbcab,
I believe nearly everyone can relate to the occasionally "grumpy mood" type of day. Keep in mind that no one has questioned Dave Wilson's talent or the obvious success he's earned with his speakers. It's only curiosity regarding an unconventional use of resistors in an audio product.
