Speaking of twits of the year!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVYA3oTG8fg Rob :)

Haha so what your saying is money doesn't make ya smart....just rich. Twits of the year contest anyone?

Xmax of .3" at 20Hz (also it's resonant frequency) will be pretty easy to hit in free air and it won't be loud to warn you. Woofers can start to...

This has become a very interesting discussion. David on the topic of alternative loudspeakers. Over the years l have corresponded with some...

JBL 4429 1200FE-8 Low-Frequency Transducer Featuring a 300mm (12-inch) pure-pulp cone woofer and large-aperture ferrite magnet and...

I am totally into this self-confirmation of beliefs; this is a topic I still explore in psychology (self-deception and the dynamics of beliefs) , so...

The HF compression driver is 175nd: aluminium diaphragm with aquaplas.... Only UHF is titanium.

Check out ePay, I built mine using OEM parts I found there, I still have a pair of horns if you are interested.

IMHO the T nuts are a POS, I used threaded inserts for my speaker builds. :applaud:

I have little to no woodworking skills, but I have a ton of drivers. I used to have a cabinet builder years ago near Toledo but he has more important...

David. I do compare the 4429s to the 4333s frequently. The 4429s does have a tendency to exaggerate the bass my room. I also think the 4333s have a...

Totally agree with Ian and Widget. I cannot see how 4425 or 4430 would stand any objective comparison to the 4429. The modern wave guides are...

No worries. It’s obviously a new sound but is always useful to understand why? Your not imagining the difference and there are a certain...

In 2017 I pad 9200 Euro's. That included the horns and shipping. The shipping was 1400 Euro alone. So the box and horns were 7800Euro They were...

The woofer clamp mounting holes are far enough from the driver cut out to not be a problem even on MDF. Most of my experience is with baltic birch...

Thanks to both. I'm working on a test box, closer to 24" x 36" x 48", just to ring out issues. Meanwhile I'm working the interior bracing to...

A couple of things I've learned about Tee nuts in speaker baffles that aren't 4355 specific. Don't hammer the Tee nuts into the holes, press them in...

The tee nuts are on the inside of the baffle to hold down the woofer and mid range. The horn and tweeter have screws coming through the front of the...

I decided to give them a second chance. Mr Widget is right, might be a question of being acustomed to the "new sound". I don't have the time to...

looks beautiful! Are you comfortable sharing the cost? I assume it is more expensive than the vintage Paragons you can find online?

Hi all those viewing this thread. Before l can start the 2451 measurements l need to fit the 2451 driver to the flange. But there’s a problem...

Yes it would be. Perhaps shack up with a nice punter in Manhattan overnight. See my attachment below. That’s what l would do…Lol. Why do the...

Hello Ian Things are a bit different the past couple years. There is a lot of track maintenance and improvements and some are posted some are not....
