It is a funny thought, which drivers DO go together? Well as long as the speaker is technically good enough and measures as intended, all components together creates a group. Is it perfect? No, and...
Hi Dan
The 2245 is a special driver! Itīs not really a subwoofer, but not just a woofer... You look at it and think of it as a "pro" driver, but not really minded for reinforcement. Itīs in...
Hello Dan!
Nice work! I like to read about what you discover during the comparing of different drivers! :applaud:
I thought you ended up with the 2118 last time, for being better than the 2122...
Hello :)
I think the lowest compromise you can do would be a 6 ft3 tuned to 41 hz. That will keep the speaker within -3 db of its sensitivity from 45 hz and up. It depends on your system...
Hello boys..
This is a question for you if you have both the 2240 and the 2245. If you gently press on the spider on both woofers, are there any difference in the stiffness on the spiders?
I...
Nice!
I can see where itīs going ;)
What about the rest of the 416īs you are missing? If you need around 8 pieces in total, you well end up with a whole lot of conearea! :)
Hei..
No, I have not heard the dual woofer cab yet. I have only worked with one pair at the time so far. I believe you will get 3 db more of it all when adding a second pair :) maybe not in the low...
Hello!
Nice job with the horns!
I use to have the 416 z drivers (not GPA) in my 828/A7 cabinets. There motor design are not made to perform that "slamfactor" some likes. We are all different,...
Very nice setup you have there! :)
I had a Crown K2 for my sub system as well for a while, and liked it a lot! Very transparent, strong bass amplifier!
If you want LFE, you would probably have...
Hey
The 2226 performs good punchy midbass, up to 500 Hz, then many other things sounds better. For one year I crossed my 2226 at 800 hz and had the same feeling about the sound as you. Then I...
So... Now must be the time for some pictures again :D
Did you manage to make that big 18" sub disappear?
Iīm sad to see this thread! It is way too personal, if nobody see this as NOT OK... then we are the ones with the biggest problem...
How does the 2245 go with the 2226? In my world...
How does the 2245 go with the 2226? In my world they do "sound" different. Can you make them work together?
Nice!
Are you happy with the size and tuning?
Good job! :)
This looks like a perfect way to spend the Easter days :bouncy:
Looking great! Is it going to be a center placed sub? What amp are you going to use? It reminds me of the 2245h that I have laying...
Hey guys..
I donīt know if itīs the auqaplas it self, that does the difference. Or is it what it does to the cone...(weight and stiffens) that creates that extreme balanced speaker? Just keep in...
Hello!
Did JBL use aquaplas on all the 2245 drivers, I thinking the monitors as well? I see no reason why not, but I have one here that tells me that not all of them were coated with aquaplas... ...
Hello.
I tried the Mackenzie 2226H recone kit last year. All I can say is that they delivers the performance!! Iīm using them in some Altec horns, powered by my 4 watt OTL amp. Great attack! :D
...
Hello guys!
Nick: To make a very good passive crossover isnīt easy. So going with active crossover gives other opportunities and advantages as well. And it is easy to try out new components...
What kind of aquaplas did you use? Something you sprayed or painted on? Got some ideas you know... ;)
Best
Martin
Interesting! :) Did you discover a change in the tonal characteristics? Of codes there is a change in the curve, but Iīm thinking in the upper bass. Not "mass-ring vs aquaplas" but with and without...
Hello!
That makes sense! Thanks for sharing! I remembered something about the 35 grams, but was not sure. I looked at the differences between the 2234 and the 2235īs mms. Iīm glad there is a...
Hi Ivica
Thanks, Iīm just surprised that the 2235 has a mms at 155 grams and on the 2245 itīs 185 grams. The mass ring weight is 50 grams. So in other words, without the mass the weight itīs 105...
Hello everyone!
Iīm about to build a B460 next summer as a DIY project. And I have some technical questions about the 2245H that goes in. Does that speaker have the same massring under the dust...
