I wonder what year this Denon was released?
I had run my system with optical cable before using the older Kenwood. Something failed and it started cutting out. I was forced to change connection...

Thank you for the help! I really appreciate it.
I'm an old analog person that tried to stay that way for too long. When I saw the first digital mixing consoles while on tour, they scared the crap...

I had to read what 4K HDR meant. It's the problem for me trying to come up to current standards. Everytime I learn something, it changes.
Ah crap! it looks like it has it?...

It's now settled. I bought an older used denon AVR3313 receiver that has everything to help me here. It has preamp outputs so I could use it to drive my amps if needed. It claims to have plenty of...

I should have also stated that I am currently running 5.1 surround in the family room with the Yamaha RX685. A big part of this is to decide to upgrade? to 7.2. I have never heard 7.2 surround yet. I...

1 It is going to connect to my TV and other components with HDMI connections
2 I only saw one Marantz preamp model when I searched. I'll have to go to there website and search for other models...

I thought I could ask here instead of a brand new duplicate type post.
I just got some of the JBL 500 series speakers to add to my house system. They seem to like better power than my Yamaha RX685...

i believe there are different versions of the 2426. Not all have threaded throat design. I believe I have some (most) that have regular bolt on mounting? I'd have to check.
I also believe that the...

I never thought much of any black friday sale before this. I always thought it was too gimmicky. I saw bait and switch stuff and other things that left me ignoring this day.
I happened to browse...

Thanks!

I have had these things laying around for several decades. I bought them many years back and a local sound supply store. I just can't remember what for? , crossovers to be built, but what exactly are...

from here the best that I can tell, the gap looks bad. It maybe locking up the diaphragm causing that distortion.
Oops! missed your post that it's already cleaned up. This is the before picture?

To the best of my knowledge, the diaphragms are installed snug, then they can be slid slightly to center them in the gap. It's connected to a tone generator and run up thru the freq. to check for...

for anyone interested in opinion!
The Selenium drivers on those EV bells sound very sweet to me. They aren't harsh and seem nicer close up in the house at high freq.
Outside I had the system turned...

I have these for comparison as well.

BTW I was going to use those 1 1/2" horns for stage monitors. If they throw well and sound good, they'll be on FOH.

I did get a set of the new type bells for comparison. One thing for sure, it beats the heck out of lugging around the old huge aluminum models.

Thanks Rob.
So is the final exit throat diameter of the 2450 2" and the throat of the 2451 1 1/2" or do I have that wrong?
I'm interested if it adds harshness to higher output volumes coming out...

I might be mistaken about your post here. Do you mean the 2440-2451 JBLs?
This is obviously just my opinion!
I run my stuff for PA use. I have had 2440s, 2441s, 2445s, 2446s, and now I finally got...

Forgive this off topic post if you will. JBL4ever,
Are those JBL 4550 bins in your avatar? In your house?

I now have these both of these amps (newer XTIs and CDIs). They were easy to update to the latest software versions for free online.
I have had Crown amps and JBL speakers all of my career. I'm a...

That's interesting. I did not do any tests. I saw it being used by others and thought it would be at the least, a healthy alternative.
I will try and remove it from one of my cabs and try a...

I used the white snow sheet material that's used at Christmas on displays (or pillow stuffing) for my latest project PA system. I worked in a insulation factory and worry about using any real glass...

Now I get to resolder everything again! Urrrgggg!
