    Safely packing 15" drivers from JBL 4350's

    I am in the process of moving, and will need to store my vintage 4350's. To make them easier to move, I plan to remove all the components and simply have movers carry the empty enclosures....

    I'm back with a question. I am done cleaning up the first driver, removing rubber and glue. However, my question is about the rim of the paper cone itself. As can (hopefully) be seen on the attitude...

    Thanks Grumpy, you guys are really great.
    I actually highlighted the problem (present on all 4 drivers) by running a 25-30Hz sine wave through the 4350's. But to be honest, I am unfamiliar with the...

    Thanks all. Between your advice and the instruction video , which are 100% correlated, i feel well equipped to do this.
  5. Thanks Rob. As mentioned before, I wish i...

    Thanks Rob.

    As mentioned before, I wish i would have met you earlier but upon watching the online video from the place where I bought the surround rims, they indicate that it has to be glued on...

    I wish it showed up first on a google search, although I thought $39 versus the perspective of having to ship heavy 38cm magnets was appealing versus a full outside servicing. Thanks for the feedback...

    I don’t think I should have used the word recone. What is damaged and almost fully unglued now is only the rubber rim connecting the cone to the metal frame. There is no damage to the cones nor the...
  8. Reconing 15" bass drivers on JBL 4350A's: Need a pro shop

    I have a pair of JBL 4350A's and I had those re-coned by a JBL service center (which I forget where) back about 15-20 years ago. Now, the rubber rim connecting the cones to the frame is frayed and...
  9. 4350 room placement (high mid and tweeter section)

    My room is about 14 feet wide by 22 long, speakers positioned along the smaller side. They are located against the wall, in the corners, with about 4 feet between them. Currently, I have them laid...

    I'm told a ground loop would impact both channels, and besides, all preamp and amps are wired together and there is nothing else. So unless a ground loop could impact one channel only, I suspect...
  11. Hum in left channel of 5234 JBL crossover (for 4350 monitors)

    I just noticed a mild, but audible hum in the lfet channel. I did all the tests to narrow it down to the crossover itself, not cables or other hardware in the monitoring chain. It unit is obviosuly...

    Trading McIntosh C38 pre-amp for C40

    I'm switching my system to digital sources via high-end DAC (probably Weiss DAC2). The distance between my preamp and the DAC is 40ft and that cannot be changed, thence the need for an XLR balanced...

    Well, the issue of oversampling is really at the heart of the matter. Wadia claims to have a vastly superior algorithm in their products. Granted, my CD player is 15 years old, but let's assume for a...

    I am definitely re-importing them, that was already a given.
    My question is whether I re-import straight into Apple Lossless format from the computer's CD ROM drive, which is effectively 44.1/16, in...

    Potential problem with polarity on Riessen 3107?

    I'm finally changing the original 3107 from my 4350A's with crossovers I bought from Rick Riessen about a year ago. Upon inspecting the units, I observed that there seems to be a polarity inversion...

    Raising 4350's by moding the cabs

    I plan to raise my 4350's by about 12 inches to properly line up the high-mid and high tranducers to my seated listening position.
    What I was thinking is to have my carpenter use pretty wide wood...
