I have had these JBL L86 speakers about three weeks. They sound very
nice. Last night I heard a buzz. Inspected surrounds and guess what.
My questions are 1)These have rubber surounds,seems every one sells
foam for this speaker. Will foam work or should I try to find rubber ?
2) Do I have to shim the voicecoil when doing the surround ? I have done
a few speakers but have never shimmed. Only used a 1.5 volt battery.
I have read JBL's have a tight voicecoil clearance on some models.
These speakers are a cut above my others and I do not want to mess
them up. Any advice is welcome.
Thanks
