As an installation tip, a person on another forum shared a tip that I used. Buy some women's panty hose and put your arms down the legs and you head in the middle. Works great.

I remember reading, some time ago, which Thiele & Small parameter was the best predictor for successful mating for use in a traditional single front loaded horn enclosure (in this case JBL...

All:
I am trying to attach 2470s on to 2370A horns. What size screw fits into the 2470s. Every size screw I have tried binds up going into the 2470.

Both the big reconers on the east and west coast say they have JBL E145 kits. Are you saying that even if one bites for the price of the JBL kit, one might not get original performance?
Do the...
Thank you to all for your input.
I have had these cabinets since the 70s. I have the 2220s that came with the cabinets, the E145s that replaced the 2220s, but all are in need of reconing. Good...

"Without getting to far off the subject, the 2446/2382a combination does roll off pretty abruptly at 10 KHz. So, I would recommend that you add a UHF driver to your system."
I also have a 2380A...
Thank you to all who have replied.
Most of my initial thinking came from viewing JBL product lines. The why of a midrange at all comes from JBL, in both consumer and pro lines, use of a cone...

I am a PA used-to-be who is looking for additional thinking for a midrange speaker for a new system. Be it known that (1) I am not much of a woodworker and (2) I want to use stock on hand.

I ask about the same question on the Pro Sound Web - August 20, 2003 - and Tracy Sherwood of Design Direct Sound Inc. was kind enough to take the time to answer:

Can anyone point me to an article that discribes the procedure and test equipment needed to tune the port of a speaker/box.

Was there something inherently wrong with the 2227H - it seems it did not last to long in the lineup?
Thank you,
Bill
I have a pair of 2220A's (and 2470s) left over from a past life that used to live in 4560s, but I sold the boxes over a decade ago. I'm trying to decide now what?
I've looked at the curves in...
Which T/S specs should be considered when deciding if a speaker would work best in a horn loaded or vented box?
Thank you,

What is the difference is sound with the 802D/511 driver/horn mounted on top compared to inside the cabinet?
Thank you,

Friends:
I have a pair of 2220As I would like to put back into service. Is JBL still the best place to have them returned to pristine condition? Do I want the de-mag/re-mag service?
Thank...
