Thanks Derek. It's great paint.
I removed the baffle from a 4343 and took it to Sherwin Williams and had them match the paint with their computerized scan. It was so close to perfect, I could tell no difference.
Thanks for the suggestion. But I believe I'll leave well enough alone. It looks good.
Thanks for replying B Scarpia. I used linseed oil and it looks close. I also used red root oil which added a slightly reddish tone. Woodworking is one of my many hobbies BTW.
One of my 4343's was damaged while moving recently and I decided to repair it. I replaced the old veneer with new only on the top and also repainted the baffles. Now I need to find out what type of...
Try Jammin' Jersey. I've bought from him before and he's a good guy with lot's of JBL parts. https://jamminjersey.com/
If he doesn't have them get it touch with Edgewound.
Or eBay...

I found this in Australia although shipping may be high. https://qsr.net.au/shop/speaker-parts/speaker-cones/jbl-2203h-cone/
You should consider Aquaplas coating. The cones will most likely...
Just spray them both the same.

Have you thought about coating the cones?

And I did find some repair kits on eBay from Simply Speakers and Looneytune in Florida and Mojobrands in Springfield, Missouri.
Why is there so many Velcro pads on the 4343 baffle? There's only six on the grill but there's ten on the baffle not including for the lens.
Edgewound would probably know or be able to supply them.
Mine are fine but I did find a high quality replacement on eBay from this guy in Poland.https://www.ebay.com/itm/333380915137?hash=item4d9f0d0fc1:g:U9AAAOSwhY1dtzW7
Thanks JB.
Are the grill pegs removable on the 4343's? I want to repaint the baffle.
Ian.
Thanks for your very informative and concise explanation. From what I have heard from my newly acquired 4343's, your assessment is spot on. They are great with jazz but can be harsh on rock,...
Ian, can you give your impression of the difference in sound quality between the stock 4343 and the 4344 and 4344MKII? If I planned on turning a 4343 into a 4344MKII, I would attempt to update all of...
I should have said
4344 Mk II.
If someone wanted to upgrade their 4343's to 4344's wouldn't be better to upgrade them to 4344 "B's"?
Rob.
Wouldn't it be trial and error if you used the real Aquaplas coating as some on this forum have tried or wanted to try?
Robt.
Well. I don't know. It would depend on how many coats. How much needs to be added?
Has anyone here tried coating speakers with Rustoleum as suggested by Simply Speakers? https://www.simplyspeakers.com/jbl-recone-kit-aftermarket-jbl-2213-123A-3-RK-JBL2213.html
Can use Rust Oleum...
Do you believe the aftermarket kits are better?
