After careful examination I discovered a second damaged area. The 2235 is now boxed and on its way to SpeakerWorks for a recone job.
In the mean time I learned the hard way that installing a heavy...
This is regarding my DIY 4350.
While reinstalling the four 15" woofers (2235's) I damaged one, somehow I cut a tiny hole in the surround, These woofers were reconed about 6 years ago with original...
My two cents since I do have a DIY 4350.
.
The difference between 4350 and 4355 is minor, the difference between woofers is not major, at least if these speakers are evaluated in residential...
Seeking opinions on JBL S4700 for two channel stereo, never seen one of these in person but from the looks they look fairly similar to more expensive K2 speakers.
Love to hear from owners of these...
Here is my take on 4430, if you are primarily into vinyl you will love the sound of this speaker, the lack of high frequencies at the very top helps mask off the surface noise and other nasties that...
Not exactly what you are asking but my reply is probably close.
For my DIY 4350’s I have two 5234A JBL active crossovers, one has the card for 4350 @ 250 Hz, the other has the card offered for...
Generally speaking any tube amp would do well with the upper part of 4350, tube amps shave off the rough edges of 2440 at higher volumes, the main problem with stock 3107 crossover.

If this comment is in reference to my DIY 4350 let me clarify:
.
Regarding the three “holes” seen on the baffle board, the one at the top and to the left of 12” driver (2202) is actually a hole...
This is probably not what you are looking for but here it is my all vertical DIY 4350.

I built this a long time ago, do not have any plans, it is big and heavy, 36” wide and 55.5” high.

I have pairs of older 5234 activecrossovers, one with 250Hz card and the other with 290Hz card, I have triedboth with my DIY 4350 and hear no difference at all.

4350 for dynamics.
DD55000 for looks
When I was building my DIY 4350's I considered pair of 18's instead of 15's but the 8 cu ft. enclosure for each 18 gave me a pause.
Is this just one speaker or a stereo pair?

Both 4430 and 4435 use the same hi frequency driver, and I agree they have no highs.
Low frequency response according to JBL original catalogs are 32Hz for 4345, 30 Hz for 4435 and 4350, 28 Hz for...
I am in partial agreement with your comment and that is why I am trying to learn more about the new generation of JBL’s past 43xx and 44xx, so when one shows up I will know what to do .
One good...
Thanks for your tips.
On the 2" compression driver, they are 2440, purchased new in 1981 so yes they are old, they remained in the box until I assembled the system, I will contact the person who...
I have 2440's so that may be the problem

In our area modern big JBL’s are not very popular and are hard to come by, what I am trying to do is to start doing my homework ahead of time just in case one shows up at fire sale price.
I am...
I have a DIY 4350, my 2235's have been re-coned once using original JBL parts.
My question, going beyond 43xx and 44xx series, if I ever decide to get one of the newer JBL's, no Everest's thank you,...
My wife is of the opinion that I am too ugly to be featured on the Internet, so here are the dimensions;
36” wide (left to right)
55” high (top to bottom)
Top of speaker is at 64” measured from...
More like 800 pound gorillas.

Mine are even taller than yours, big & ugly, but I never cared for the horizontal arrangements of 15” woofers in larger JBL monitors, be it 4350, Everest or whatever.
I stacked the 2235’s in...
I did ask this same question a while back, got no reply.
Mine are for 4350's, I have three 3107's, one is spare just in case, these are over thirty years old and I am assuming that perhaps an...
I use two McIntosh SS amps for my DIY 4350, initially I used2105 for highs and 2205 for lows, several years later I replaced the 2105 withanother 2205, this way I am using two equal power amps for...
Well, if you can’t get 20Hz from Everest for all that money,don’t despair, get a B&W 802 D3, specs say frequency response is 17Hz to 28kHz!!!!!!!
