Any time I see the D130 paired with the LE175DLH it makes me think of an early system where JBL set up "building blocks" in stages so the average...

Good point re fiberglass. Obviously, I don't want tiny pieces flying out into the house. But if there is a way to mitigate that (cheese cloth), then...

Hi, I have had several Orbans 674A and never had any problems and they are good devices but if you have a little more budget invest in a more modern...

Hi Ivica, Nice to hear from you. As a first “diy” loudspeaker project simplicity should be a priority. What this guy thinks and what he...

Hi Ian and Anti K, May be 2265 x 2 per box, can be used, if 2269 or 2242 are applied in separated boxes as subs. Applying 2.8V to 2265 x 2...
