Hi All:
Have been away from the LHS forum for some time so I'm not up to speed on what you guys have been doing lately. I keep in touch with a few via phone and email but my on-line cruising time...
Hallo All:
On Friday Sept. 16th we will hold the 5th Lansing Heritage Germany gathering. Our last one was in July 2009. Last year HP and I simply could not make the schedule work.
The...
Hi Beer:
I think you'll find the S7R Oly to sound better then the S7 Apollo. If you look at the minimum cabinet volume specs that JBL offered for the LE15A you will find that the Apollo cabinet...
CLONES - Clones - Clones
No need for continued discussion. Everything is wrong with these - port tubes, screwed in lower baffle, no beveled face trim, rear panel has a terminal cutout that is...
UPDATE - All recent orders from within the U.S. have been shipped. All overseas orders will be shipped this coming Monday via USPS.
UPDATE - The remaining cloth supply is lower than I realized. I...
Yes - I'm still alive. I hope all will accept my apologies for being out of the loop for so long. I have received several requests but have been unable to sit down and get every one taken care of -...
Just saw a sales flyer for the new release of the 4365 monitor. Thought I'd pass it on. I guess JBL is still in the market. Price is near $10K per pair.
Little Known Facts About Sculpted Foam Innovations !!
This guy started into the L100 foam grille market by contacting forum member INDYCRAFT with the claim that he wanted to place a very large...
Thanks for the persistance Scorpio. As usual, I'm behind in updating threads that I have been involved with.
The C.C. 3155 networks have been in the cabinets for several months now. The...
Thanks Grumpy. I've bookmarked that site. I'm not a real big Altec fan these days but if I had to choose one it would be the Model 19. If I could keep everything I would not have sold my last pair....
What economics? I don't think there's a single answer to your question. Individual components have always sold well on eBay. I've been buying them for over 10 years. Motive for buying is the...
I have to share Mr. Widget's observations related to cabinet making in today's market.
Simply driving up to a business who has Cabinet Making as part of their name will usually result in...
I've received a number of inquiries asking if I still have grille cloth available. I'm thinking this thread is buried too deep for some to find it so this post will move it back on top for a while.

Thumper:
Thanks for the compliments. If I cooked up my woodworking skills over the course of a couple months I could understand jealousy, but I've been doing this forever. Any dummy should...
Hi Johnny - My Norway Sovereign Friend
Thanks for your kind words as always. I've done a couple dozen projects over the past two years but kind of stopped posting all the stuff. I figure they all...
three 5/8" holes on 2 5/8" centers
I'm partial to the black ash on the baffle too. All told - 4 pairs of 4345's scattered between Japan, France and the U.S., and I've done a couple other models with black baffles also. It looks pretty...
These baffles are white oak with a water based blue stain applied after using a grain sealer coat. Finish coat is 6-7 coats of satin lacquer over the top. I have used white ash before which yields a...
I didn't take any pics of the inside details of pair #2 but they are similar. Also there are no plans so if someone wants to something similar you'll need to do what I did - build the boxes and fill...

For anyone interested in pursuing a similar project I'll post a bunch of pics on the construction.
Pair #1 started from a pair of baffles already cut for standard 4315 layout. I overlaid the 2301...
Thanx Earl and Ron:
I've talked to Giskard at length about this project, including the short-falls. Without reasonable attenuation the potato masher's scream at you. The temp fix before a custom...
I've been playing around with this project for a couple of years. I've always liked the 4315's and wanted to experiment with some variations. This is the second pair in this configuration I've built....
Hi Scorpio:
Good timing on your post but you were looking for information that I have yet to post. The 4354's have become a permanent part of my main system; as permanent as I have seen in a long...
