Hi
Here is a photo of a modified L 300 which is for sale here in Denmark. (4500 USD). Have you guys ever seen such a modification with buttcheeck-horns in a original L 300 enclosure?? Seller says Its been done by a pro JBL-shop several years back.
its looks not like an improvement to me. Or am I wrong?
cheers
I doubt the 077 would think it improved anything. Or the grilles, either!Quote:

That just pains me to look at that.:barf:Why not just buy a 4430?? :crying:
Isn't the horn interrupting the 077 dispersion? Looks bad to me.

The 077 is suppose to be in the middle , must not be a L300 cabinet. Maybe a 4333 ?
Kinda misses the point about the development of that horn, not to mention the compensation circuit that goes with it. Cabinet definitely looks L300ish.
... a lot of speculation. If the 4430 network was hooked up and with some HF spray (maybe add some foam behind the 'buttcheek ear'...
or rotate the 2344, as has been noted in -two- threads now).
It could sound pretty good (up off of the ground). Looks like a modded L300 cabinet to me. If the grill fit still, it might be a reasonable
(if unfortunate, value-wise) mod. It's just speakers folks. :duck:
As 2344 dispersion in the horizontal and vertical planes up to 10kHz is almost the same, but with 077 included, FR over 10kHz would be reproduced by 077Quote:

OK. So other than likely/seriously compromising the originals, value-wise,
they play mildly amazing. The owner may well have thought it worthwhile
at the time.
Seriously though... $4500USD seems like a stretch unless for exactly the
right buyer... one who understands and values what Mr. Ludvigsen has
wrought upon them (and perhaps what a Højtalerene is).
