Sometimes they are worth less http://cgi.ebay.com/Pair-JBL-2800-Floor-Standing-Speakers-Oak-Finish-125W_W0QQitemZ190032011936QQihZ009QQcategoryZ61377 QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

And sometimes one tweeter is worth $50.00 http://cgi.ebay.com/JBL-Speakers-TWEETER-Titanium-Dome-Model-2800_W0QQitemZ170028280231QQihZ007QQcategoryZ67852 QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

508G stamped frame ventless, coated paper cone, foam (or coated rubber) surround, convex "linen" dust dome. 1.5" voice coil, nearest I can measure visually at the spider.

Re = 6 Ohms, Fs = 54 Hz, Qes = 0.68, Qms = 7.14, Qts = 0.62, Le=0.73 mH, EBP=80

Nicely constructed disposable driver, "Made in USA."

Nearfield response of two units in closed "Mini" box below. Compare to other 8" drivers here:

Has the "warmth" of 116A without some of its FR anomalies, but also 10 Hz less bass extension in this alignment....
