My original 2245H cines have 17 stiffening ribs as does my JBL recone kit. Cannot find oem kits anymore and need at least one more. Looking at aftermarket 2245 recone kits but they all have 22 ribs. I note that some 2241 & 2242 kits have 17. Did JBL do a 22-rib cone 2245?

Hi

Some good 2245H cone info HERE! (http://www.audioheritage.org/vbulletin/showthread.php?32562-2-2245H-with-different-cones-but-which-one-is-original) , courtesy of subwoof .

He has always been to go to guy for variations ( of a model ) like this.

I also know there's more out there ( by subwoof ).

Pretty sure he posted a comparison of the cones that showed the 3 most common.

:)

Thankyou Earl. Aftermarket sources appear to emulate the 3rd version. 22 rib, black aquaplas back, black/grey foam roll. And I have 5's I guess. How to match? Does anyone out there have JBL kits with the 17 rib cone?
