Hi There Jeff,
Sorry to hear about your damaged L300 grill assemblies. Even without the feline issue they still have not held up well due to age and use of deteriorating particle board.
Glad to...

YES, that is the JBL factory slide rule. Well now at least I have a pic!
Earl,
Thanks you for following up and taking the time to scan and post these PRO-NOTE publications for all of us to enjoy here in the forum.
Some really great nostalgia contained in these vintage...
A BIG thank you is in order!

Anyone out there in vintage JBL land happen to be able to share a copy of:
JBL " Pro Note" Vol. 1 Issue # 7 July 1973
JBL " Pro Note" Vol. 1 Issue # 6 Jan 1973
I really enjoy reading these......

The heads are to wide and do not fit unless back cover holes are modified.. It would be necessary to drill out the holes on the back cover to a wider diameter to accept the larger head socket screw...
Hello All,
I would like to share some more passion for vintage JBL with you. I just had screws made that will fit the rear covers of 2" compression drivers. Yeah, you know those special narrow...
Thanks for responding Widget. Makes me feel better that you made a comment. You are correct about the shrinking numbers of folks willing to do what I do with vintage JBL. When I do my clone builds...
If anyone is interested I will be more then happy to send out a few samples to anyone who is interested. I would love to get feedback. They have been tested and are a option as a replacement to the...
Hello All....
I am super excited to share some vintage JBL info with you. I spent some time with an engineer friend of mine and we came up with a 99 % perfect affordable replacement horn throat...
Yeah.... I'm beginning to think that the 2309/2310 is too nostalgic on my part but there are better sonic(smoother freq response) options... perhaps I go with the true and tried 2311/2308 combo. I...
It is a consideration (single 2245H) for a few reasons.. 1. I already have a 2245H I used in a SUB many years ago. 2. It would help reduce the tower I am creating... If I were to go this route, I...
Hello All,
Been a while since I've posted.... I am in the planning stages of designing a modified 4 way system. I have been using my 4355 clones for about 5 years now and really enjoy them....
YES, labeling.
THANKS for the info... now i can sleep at night! And if I recall correctly the 2405 HF drivers had some inconsistent 8 ohm and 16 ohm impedance labeling. I am pretty certain it was only available as...
I am getting conflicting info on what version LE85 driver was used in the L300. I see pics of some L300's that show 8 ohm and others 16 ohm LE 85 drivers. I do not see JBL listing the impedance of...
Not sure if you saw " i am interested in the router table"

I was on the grills all day today! And I just did the inner frame pieces. I made enough grill corner blocks for 6 pair. 48 in total! I also made the top rails and all the support blocks(6 per grill)...
I forgot to mention.... Did you not use the 1/2" X 1" walnut pieces that meets up with the glass top?

Yes would be interested in the table..
yes that would work as well. Can't quite picture the relief groove and you say you installed them after the boxes were assembled? any build pics you can share....
I have to agree with you as well. The next set that I start next week WILL use the hardwood edges. As I mentioned I was losing sleep on this decision :) I have a plan now to execute the "real thing"....
THANKS for all your interest and considering me to make clone L300 cabinets for true JBL enthusiasts. It a true passion for me- Audio meets fine cabinet making! I have always really enjoyed the...
Here are a few.... I have dozens and dozens of build photos. Need to organize in a logical order...
