I do have my system going through a parametric EQ. If I were running it without any type of tone controls, I'm sure the "more mid band" would be obvious to my ears. My point, IMHO, the MWA cone kits...

I can't speak for McKenzie kits, but I have a set of 2235s that are all MWA parts. Actually they are 2234s because I didn't want the mass ring. I use them in my L300s. I wanted to compare the sound...

I think I will get some new diaphragms for the LE-85s (once I build my new networks) and compare the two.

I have the original tangential (LE-85/2420) diaphragms. The DCR on mine are 6.2 and 6.5 ohms respectively. The 2470s sound better to me. It could be the crossover (40+ yrs old), the equipment i'm...

I personally think they sound better. Makes me kinda wonder why JBL didn't offer that particular setup.....077, 2470 and 2235

So I came across a real nice pair of 2470's (phenolic diaphragms) on Ebay. I was going to put some titanium diaphrams in them and compare them to the LE85 diaphrams (Original D16R2420). But my...

So I talked to a Rep a JBL pro service today and he told me that they drastically dropped their prices for parts back in June in order to keep up with the competition

Is there some type of sale going on at Jbl? I called JBL pro service today to get a price on 2421 diaphragms and they guy told me they were $99 retail. A few months ago, they were around $180. Parts...

I have my presence at approx -0.5db and Brilliance is flat. I'm running an Emotiva Fusion 8100 with a two XPA-100 mono-blocks (250 wpc)

There's nothing poor about those Jubals (IMHO). I just got lucky when my father (FINALLY) decided to give me his 300's (which were rotting away in a basement for 30years, lol). To my ear, those...

BEAUTIFUL!!! I was actually looking to get me a pair of L-65's before the L-300's fell into my lap :D

Very Nice. I'm sure you're going to enjoy your L-300's just as much as I enjoy mine

Personally, I would use 2 sets of 16/4 stranded. One loom for the 2420/2421 l-pad and one loom for the 2405...

Actually, the 4333 has two L-pads per speaker; one for the 2420/2421 and one for the 2405

Here's a matched set in case you're still looking (No affiliation):

If you can't find any woofers on ebay or craigslist, your only alternative would be to use an aftermarket kit i.e., MacKenzie, Simply Speakers, Speaker Exchange

Unfortunately, JBL no longer makes recone kits for the L-100. You may be able to find some woofers on ebay with good cones, that may just need to be refoamed. The woofers that are are compatible with...

Sounds like you bought a 800hz low pass filter (not crossover) instead of a 800hz 2 way crossover. A 2 way crossover should have 3 sets of terminals; 1 input, 1 low output, 1 high output

That just pains me to look at that.:barf:Why not just buy a 4430?? :crying:

I've read on this forum that a resistor ranging from 2MegOhm-5MegOhm can be used at the midpoint of biased caps. My question is, can I just arbitrarily choose a resistor value (2M-5Mohm) or does ...

Yes, a very sad day indeed. Much too young

Thomas, looking at the catalogs, it looks like early L-100s had the badges in the lower left corner (2nd pic). In the 1976 catalog (1st pic) JBL moved the badges to the top right corner. Hope this...

Anyone have any experience with the ART CX311 active crossover? How does it compare to the Ashly XR-1001?

Thanks a lot Giskard, I really appreciate it. One last thing, if I wanted to do a Nelson pass top section (mid and high frequency, leaving out the low section; it would be connected to an active...

The series cap would go in front of the 0.3mh inductor or right before the speaker terminals??
