Reservoir JBL’s full range “Lets go to work”.
At the present time, with more time, on my hands I’m dealing with the matching LCR yet again with the two subs playing the same range in the low end department 15Hz while the remain frequency response sweeps though up to 16,000kHz.
So far applied a frequency cut on the left channel as it was a bit high between 15Hz and 47Hz a little Q not going to talk about the rest of the sound politics too much until its finalized.
Now I have a few more things to address and attend too. Same technique of “In & Out” I get out of the room while it does the full range sweep, as to not disturb the sound waves.
Also I decided too have a little fun, but being serious at the same time.
Now you channels’ will all be using allies on this EQ. Here are your names.
Left channel you’re Mr Red
Centre channel you’re Mr. Purple
Right channel you’re Mr. Blue
Why am I Mr. Purple?
Because you’re a poof, okay.
Why can’t I be Mr. Red?
You’re Mr. Purple!
Something even bigger coming…!
A close friend called yesterday and asked if I would like a 32” Panasonic CRT FST. I asked how much? £50.00 pounds I asked why and that I’d be surrounded with CRT he laughed and I asked isn’t that your old CRT that evidently he gave to his girlfriend and that she’s got a flat screen now.
So I said done, deal. :)
Only problem now is? What do I do with the SONY 27” CRT and to think I was just getting used to it.
I have the Toshiba 20” in the bedroom for myself and Sooty my cat. The kitchen is no good as I’m only meters away from each room. I measured/sized it up no way impossible to fit in the kitchen and besides its waste of electricity. I might put it aside on the floor in the bedroom and place the SONY in the bedroom.
Now the other issue is colour strain due to the subs on each side of the front, that’s right there placed back up front again. I’d soon find out if there’s a colour strain issue and I need my friend to stay around for while, while I try out different positions as its rather heavy to lift on your own.
Also this would change the front JBL control 5, height placement. There positioning at present is spot-on for directional hard and half dialogue panning and I’m not about to screw that up because it takes hours to get done right.
The width of the Panasonic will push the JBL 4645 over slightly to the right more, sigh. If I can get the platform built it would help with the LCR placement where I wouldn’t have to stack the JBL control 5 onto tower speakers and empty boxes just so that the height is correct.
Anyway not sure what day he’s bring it over and I’d pay him half now and another half in few weeks and he’s cool about that.

Just had a rather inspiring bright light idea for JBL control 1 LED project!
While looking at the new JBL LSR 2300 series which as blue LED placed in the middle of the baffle and while watching one of my favourite Star Trek original laserdisc to DVD-RW the motion picture (1979) as Enterprises leaps to warp 1, leaving a colourful light trail of colour behind it.

I was suddenly thought there’s enough space behind the grill to baffle where the JBL badge logo is, what if I place a three segment LED type on small PCB glued to the back with the wires hidden. It would then produce a colourful bright backlighting effect when the lights are turned OFF.
Now one of my friends dabbles in electronics for living as he teaches this each day at school and has he’s own production company. Now all I need to get from him is his opinion on LED type and size, I’m sure he’ll find it fascinating.
I know the price of the LED’s is cheep and I only need 10 LED or maybe a few more extra?
I was just thinking what about sticking inside the enclosure I mean I haven’t seen the light-bulb fuse light up since I’ve had the JBL control 1 as I keep levels within reasonable SPL db and it takes a bit of loudness to light them up.
