The baffles on my L96's are painted or coated with a thick plastic paint layer. It is nice because it smooths out the rough texture of the MDF underneath. I am building a set of speakers and I'd...

Can the 806a be upgraded with the tangerine phase plug?

OK....so back to the drawing board to re-think the project. I am thinking I probably scrap the 806's for another driver. What drivers would be optimal?

The DC resistance measured on the 806's is 8.5 in one and 9.2 in the other.

I am thinking about blending LE10H's with a set of Altec 806 drivers I have. I also have a set of N96 networks and cabinets from L96's.

My questions are:

1. What would be the best horn to...

Does anyone know of any people matching up the LE10H's with horns, and if so, what was the result?

Thanks.

Aaah yes it does!! 1100 Hz...

Thank You!!

Question for you JBL experts; What is the frequency handled by the LE10 in the L96? Where does it roll off?

Thanks.

Man I just checked my woofer connections on my L96's and they have been wrong all along (since I refoamed). Why would JBL use the black terminal as positive?!?! Totally against my convention of...

Thanks for the great information

The horns my friend had were, as he described - P&H knock offs of JBL baby cheek horns. They were rectangular but almost as tall as wide.

I like the idea of...

I recently got into tubes. I have a Sansui 1000A receiver and run it through L96's. A friend has a horn setup and we ran the 1000A through them and it sounded great. The horns were Altec 802D's...

Using this new forum software I search for L96 and get the message "Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms." WTF??

I have three sets of L96’s and have determined that I am not getting all the tweet and or midrange, as designed, out of a couple of them. I, therefore, have decided to do sometuning-up/ restoration...

Would someone be so kind as to please advise what are the various types of cement used in this process??

Thank You.

What is the reputation of the 066 tweeter now? I mean...are modern tweeters significantly better? Are subsequent JBL tweets alot better?

I am curious because I read about these new (many...

It is a nice glue though...seems to setup nice and fast. It is expensive too.

Thanks all...

Regarding the adhesive...I would recommend 3m Super weatherstrip adhesive #08008 (black in color as opposed to #08001 which is yellow).

Great Info...Thanks alot.

I'm in the process of scraping off the old glue from the surround (yes I cut off a perfectly good surround last night in haste) and need to pick up some dust caps and a...

OK You convinced me. What type of material did you use for the filter...and where did you get it?

Is the filter really required? Gordon says he just leaves it open. My LE10's also have the little screen at the bottom of the hole anyway.

That is exactly what I did and I have freed it up. Both you and Gordon were dead-on with the foam filter...see AK thread...

I bought a pair of L96'w almost two years ago that needed refoaming. Just noticed tonight on the one that the LE10 was making noise. Pulled it off and the movement is real stiff and binds unless I...

Love "The Dan" man.....probably my favorite band....period.

Attached is a diagram of my basement and the location of two L96's. The basement is unfinished and the system sounds fantastic, but the bass sounds dramatically different while standing in different...

I actually oriented them horizontally so that they have a lower side view profile....looks better....they sound very nice by the way. I do have one LE5 that has a bit of a stiff cone ...not very...
