Thank you POS, you are always a great help! Why would 16 ohm be a better choice? What am I giving up, 3dB?

Thank you POS, you are always a great help! Why would 16 ohm be a better choice? What am I giving up, 3dB?
This thread is gold! Couple quick questions: Is there a difference between the 2450-SL phragm and the 2451-SL?
Assumption: I can use an 8 ohm phragm in a 16 ohm body and it will operate as an 8...
Thanks for your thoughts Jeff. I am using the 2384 horn which is drilled for both bolt circles. Lucky me!
I just wonder if the Be diaphragm in the 2435 trumps the advantage of the 4" SL CD. From...
Ohhh, thanks for responding Barry! I was actually considering a PM to you directly. You're the best!
I did find some good condition 2435HPLs, but think the 4" SL CDs sound better. Am I crazy?
Would the 2447h with SL phragms be equal to the 2450-SL? I realize the differences in mag types.
Thanks again for your feedback guys. I am curious what your thoughts are on the 15" waveguide in the attached picture (AM6215/95). I am very close to being capable of measurements.
I love that quote!!!!
What CDs are you using? I use 2 x 2447h w/ the 2450-SL phragms and one 2450-SL. I really want to do the Be upgrade. Is it worth it? Some say yes, some say no. I had...
Looks really impressive! I recently re-constructed my space to add subs on each side and build a baffle wall for the front stage. I am running active bi-amp with Crown DSi amps. This week I will...
Hi ivica! Thanks for responding. Would the addition of either make it a 3-way then?
I have a few JBL drivers sitting around so I might as well build some boxes. Here's what I have:
2 x 2430's
2 x 2431's
2 x 2352 wave guides
2 x 3110A networks
2 x 2035's
2 x 2225's
2 x 2242's...
Barry-
Where would the 2035 be placed in comparison to the 25 and 26?
I did not opt for the Apollo upgrade, wish I had. I agree, the lead time is an issue. It has kept me from buying more.
I must be lucky, the Crown amps are dead silent. No hiss at all.
Thanks for the props guys! The DSi amps have presets for my speakers that set the x-overs, limits and other elements. It really is plug and play. The cavity behind the wall is sealed and very...
I quit my job recently so had some time on my hands. I have wanted to do a baffle wall for a while, so I tore into my existing front stage and constructed the BW. It is made using 2 layers of 5/8"...
me likey Chrap!!!!
Not to mention the truex is a little cheaper than the 2435 phragm, last I looked. As an aside , you could put the SL phragm in your 2452.
I have an AE TD18h+ across from a 2245 in the same room (near field). I'd say it compares favorably. Very clean, low distortion.
Are you using the 2245 woofer? Will you equalize too? I am building a traditional 8 cu ft (net) cab with 2x6" ports using my 2245.
I have the earlier 4622's. Replaced the 2430's with 2450-SL's. Just sounds less harsh on the top end. And I'm running active bi-amped with DSi amps.
http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/multi-way/274647-diy-woofer-wave-guides-they-work.html I'll know soon. I just ordered one for testing.
I'm interested in trying these 15" waveguides. I'm using that term loosely...
Can I buy these from JBL pro? Any suggestions?
...
So Jonas, please explain how you wired the cabinet and also the CD. It would be great if you could help me with this! I have the same amps.
Excellent points pos/Barry! Is the 2431 considered an upgrade over the 2430? Then I saw this http://www.audioheritage.org/vbulletin/showthread.php?3182-2430-and-2431-comparison but it doesn't...
Absolutely! I used to use three of the MRX512's as theater LCR's. Then I got an AM6215/95 for the center. Now I have a trio of 4622's taken from a defunct cinema. A few over on AVS have recently...
Why is the 2431 phragm so expensive? It's over $100 more than the 2450-SL. I don't get it.
