Whats going on with those 2231a surrounds....?
FWIW. After quite a few years use I'm still very happy with my active DIY take on the Array 1400 using 2206 bass mid with the SAM1/2435Be and the bottom end below 80hz taken care of by a BK XXL400...

And yet we use speaker grill cloth a few mm from the port openings ....the ladies tights idea works and doesn't restrict air flow.
Another worthwhile tip to go with the hairspray(extra hold) is to stretch some 40 denier black stockings material over internal port openings. It pays to be in touch with your feminine side ;-)
Hairspray, much better than paint and pretty much designed for the job.
Great work (again!) Rob. I STILL haven't got round to making a passive network for my 2206/2435Be/SAM1's and have been running them active via AllDSP LMS controller.
One thing I have noticed is I...
I think the salient point here is the extremes KEF have gone to in the construction of what is already a small rigid(small panels) box.
The larger panels in the JBL are broken up with asymetric...

That's the one! I knew I'd seen it a loooong time back, thanks for posting.

Thanks Rob, that's just what I had in mind. Yes the 2206 is 97dB/W. I'm currently running DSP/active but just had an Mark Levinson 380s/No 333 come into my possession and a passive version starts to...
Thanks Dave , that starts the list.

Cheers Mac, much appreciated.
If I was to replace the 2206's in my 70Litre 2206/SAM1/23435Be 2 ways which 'available' 12" JBL driver would fit the "worthwhile upgrade" criteria in terms of bass extension and midrange fidelity?...
In a search for 'on spec' replacement 4" voice coils for some 2206 bass mids I came across a goes-into that included the 2226 among a few others.
Did JBL use the same vc's across some drivers?
Can...

They look lovely, beautifully proportioned.
If you do it yourself yes, I personally think they aren't worth paying out for someone else to do the work from a value/return pov. More importantly they were voiced in a particular way so do you...
You'll need some nice H9800 horns and ME150HS drivers to go with them so give me a pm.

Hi all,
Just came across these.
Is this a joke or for real?

Well the place has definitely taken a turn for the worse though to be fair singling out the 'evil' comment ignores a shed load of personal ad hom garbage that has gone before it. I decided long ago...
Is that genuine JBL shaving foam?
OK. Lesson learned.
Ah I getcha. You'd need about 80g to coat 2 15" bass drivers(beats 2 mass rings!)...
I'm guessing its exactly the same beige clay like material regardless that needs to be emulsified(ish) before application.
