Earl: my mistake. No, there is another amp. The C34's are driven by the ARC D-76 tube amp. But the B380 subwoofer is driven by an ATI 1502 solid state amp in bridge mode. There is a Paradigm...

I would love to use 150-4c's... but the expense is beyond me, I think.

Given the insights (thank you!) by forum members in this thread, I think my best option would be either the JBL 2227 or the...

Thank you SpeakerDave & Richard. I appreciate your replies.

Dave, when I said "keep up", I meant that on complex bass passages in rock music, the 130a seems to struggle to articulate the...

Has anyone tried a 12" JBL driver in a C34 or C40 cabinet?

I recently added a B380 JBL subwoofer to my system. That change made a significant improvement below 70z or so. But at higher volumes...

JBL's early C-series cabinets were available in a wide variety of finishes. A quick look at the JBL 1952 - 1962 catalogs in the Library section of this website lists a wide variety of options that...

I'm working on a pair of C40 Harkness cabinets and have noticed different wood screws on the backs and for mounting the crossover + baffle boards. Does anyone know what the correct wood screw size...

Thank you all very much for sharing your knowledge.

The drivers work. I'm going to see if I can come up with a way to mount the 175 + H-1000 horn inside my C-40 cabinet. Owing to its larger size...

I'm looking at three drivers and trying to understand what I have here:


1. A gray 175 compression driver with early label, serial number 21233, large manufacturer's label is Jim Lansing...

I'm wondering if the arrival of the JBL Energizer amplification option (1963?) correlates roughly with the first particle board JBL cabinetry?

I haven't seen a plywood-based cabinet with the back...

Does anyone know when JBL first started using particle board construction on its factory cabinets?

Is it possible that some of the longest-running designs, like the C-36, C-38, and C-40 used...

@BMWCCA,

I'll look at the L96 & L112 speakers, as you suggest. Thank you!

Off Topic: Favorite Nordschleife "tool" was my 1962 Marcos GT (FIA historic Class F). Light and quick. I took a...

Seawolf97,

Thank you for your suggestion. I'll try to learn more about (and listen to) the Ti-series JBLs.

Also, I agree about the speakers in the link you sent; the C-53 is one of the...

Hi Dave,

I have one C-40 with 001 and the other is 030 -- the two work surprisingly well together. They were mono-age orphans that I pulled together to make a stereo system.

The room is 24x24...

I'll take a look at those JBL monitors, Fpitas. Thank you. I'd prefer something more vintage if possible, though.

Any my other suggestions? I like the direct, highly efficient sound of my...

Very nice studio, Don! Steinway Model B?

Request Forum members' advice: I must downsize to smaller bookshelf speakers and put away my much-loved (but admittedly large!) JBL C-40 Harkness speakers. What should I consider as smaller,...
