Just wondering if they are still for sale, I'm looking for a pair.

Kevin

I agree, I believe the box is a bit too long. Actually I got the plans for this box years ago from a speaker repair shop here in town where I live. I had woofers in the box before (no problems) and...

Hi,

I put together a centre channel cabinet for my home theatre system using two 2118 drivers. I did some testing using a new SPL meter I picked up and found that it has a huge box resonance...

Thanks for the info Subwoof, much appreciated!

Hi,

I was snooping on ebay the other day and I noticed a JBL driver for sale a 2427H and the gentleman was saying it is a 2" driver? Correct me if I am wrong but are not all the 242_ model drivers...

Thanks rdgrimes,

I found some on ebay.

Hey Scotty, think I talked with you way back on one of my first posts, if it was you, I had listed all the different speakers (drivers etc) and you came...

Hello All,

I was wondering if anyone would know where I could get some JBL emblems for the speakers I am building?

Thanks,

Kevin

I wanted to point out that the humblehifi.com site was not the site I suggested Dino check out just in case there was some confusion there. If anyone wants to check out the MCaps check out...

Hey Dino,

To be honest with you, I really don't know. I have never done a A/B comparison. I know there are some 'highend' guys out there with golden ears and a bank full of gold who believe they...

Hey dino,

A friend of mine sells Mundorf Caps (Mcaps), I could put you in touch with him if you are interested.

Kevin.

Interesting stuff guys, Baron and Ian, I have been doing some reading on crossovers and think I might go back to the active crossover, seems to have WAY less complications, not sure if I can swing it...

I'm working on one at the moment also, so far the plan is a couple 2118 8" mids, a 2445/2397 horn and a 2405 tweeter. If I don't get enough LF I might replace the 2118's with a couple of Part Express...

I would never make fun of a "Time Lord" :applaud:, I know what's good for me! (I have a big smile on my face, just try'n to get ya going, haha!) I do respect you, anyone who can eat pasta and figure...

Ok "Time Lord":), so all I need with for my low pass on the 2012 is 1.38Mh and a 49uF?

Kevin

P.S. Is that you selling the wooden TAD horns on ebay?

Hi Ian

I was just wondering, with your measurements a few posts earlier, you achieved an 18dB slope with a second order xover, is that common?

Kevin.

Hello Ian

I'm glad you approve of my using the 2012 and the 2226 together. The "peaky response" of the 2012 has generated a lot of interest on this thread, it's been kinda cool watching you guys...

OK, sounds like a plan.

Thanks for the info and advice, very much appreciated!:)

This is a great forum, so much input and knowledge being passed around and backed up by people who know their...

Three 2445's? ching,ching:( don't have the bucks for them, but who knows maybe one day when I'm rich and famous I'll take you up on your advice and go for it.

So, the Ti diaphragm is the stock...

Yes, I hear you. If I find there is to much of a mismatch, I can switch back to the 2370a.

Thanks for the advice on the 2445, it needs a diaphragm, which material would you suggest, aluminum?
...

Oh,oh, Mr. Widget now you are opening another can of worms (good question though). If you have seen the other posting from me on "Which Components Should I Use?" (first can of worms,lol!) you will...

Hey Guys,

Thanks for the advice. Maybe I should just take Johnaec's route and cross the 2012 under the 1kHz with a third order? Actually at the moment the 2425's are crossed over at 800Hz, second...

I was planning on using a 2397 horn along with a couple 2118 mids with a 2405 tweeter.

Kevin.

Hmmm, well I just spent at least four hours trying different set ups, tweeters, amps, passive or active etc. I have come to the conclusion I would like to keep it as simple as possible (well, except...

Wow! That's a big center channel! My room is about 15X25 ft. but do not have room for big woofers like that. I was going to use one of the drivers with a 2397 horn and a couple of 8" mid-bass units,...

Thanks Baron, I will check it out!

Well Rob to be honest with you I'm not much of an electronics guy, but I try hard. The way I have been testing my speakers in the past is with a good old...
