Morning, Friends,
I have a pair of JBL 2420 drivers, and also a pair of Altec 902-16HF drivers. I wonder if the diaphragms for these drivers are interchangable? I am seeming to remember that the hole patterns in them are different, but can't recall, for sure. Also, I dug out a pair of NIB Altec #3467 diaphragms, and am considering changing out the 16 ohm diaphragms that currently reside in the 902's, with the 8 ohm version. But, I also considered trying them in my 2420's, just for grins. However, none of this will actually happen until later this Summer. Just wanted to run it past you all before thinking further on the matter. Take care, and God Bless!
Every Good Wish,
Doc
P.S. Somewhere on this forum, I found a discussion of the EV T35A, with lots of interesting opinions on both sides of it, both good and bad. This morning, when I was down digging out my goodies, I ran across a box in which I'd once mounted my 2420's, and I had forgotten that I actually used an EV T35A inside that box with the JBL! I recall being very satisfied with the musical sound of it, and it definitely added some sparkle to the 2420's on the high end of it! For what it's worth, thought I'd mention that here, just for grins.
