Whose Jubilee? Klipsch's or JBL's?

JBL make a "Jubilee" beside the L250 variant?

What have you got in that box?

Disregard my question, found your old thread. Why didn't you sell as you had indicated?:

Was your "Jubilee" a home build as well? How'd you get hold of plans? (for the Klipsch)

I had heard both the klipsch jubilee and the Hartsfield. I didn't like the way the Hartsfield base sounded with that top load 15. But the speaker cosmetically is one of the prettiest speakers ever built. since the jubilee and the Hartsfield were so close in external dimensions, I simply built the Hartsfield around the klipsch. I built 3 sets when I did these years back. Mine have the pioneer woofers that are now discontinued and jbl 2452's. the bass sounds amazing. but I can't get those woofers anymore. so its either crites' woofer or I have to find a woofer with the same specs and field parameters as what I have.

That is a nice looking loudspeaker.
