I think that is what I will do. Thanks
I want to mount an Array 880C on the wall below the TV, and I was wondering if anyone can advise me on the best way to do that. What's the best way to attach a bracket? I think the cabinet is all...
Wow beautiful job! I imagine those have a huge sound with the Sub1500s. Enjoy!
Thanks for the compliments. I tried to make them look like the JBL originals, as much as my woodworking skills would allow.
I could never have built these without the help and encouragement of...
Thanks for the kind words. Real compliments coming from you guys!

I finally got them finished. I have been listening to them without the batteries installed in the CC networks, hoping to hear the difference after I install them. They sound really good without the...
This is how I am going to build the tops. I plan to paint the tops satin black and veneer the bottoms with walnut veneer.
Thanks to all the members who have helped advise me with this project....

I finally got these put together enough to give them a listen. So far I'm very happy with them. I think they sound better than my Performance Series stacks which is saying a lot! The bass cabinets...
Got it - I'll also make sure the voice coils are aligned. Thanks so much for checking.
I had found this post stating 38 mm from baffle to front edge of horn:

Thank you for the data. It appears from pictures I have seen of the Array 1400 that the "lip" of the horn, where the horn meets its enclosure in the SAM1HF, appears to be aligned with the baffle of...
I'm starting to build my bass cabinets and need one more bit of information: What's the vertical distance between the bottom edge of the horn and the top of the woofer on the Array 1400?
Larry,
Nice looking cabinets. Thanks for the advice on the volume. I'm used to my performance series PS1400 / PT800 stacks which have great bass and I don't plan to add a sub, so I think I will...
Thanks for the compliments! I did my best to keep the wires short. I drew the layout in CAD. Those boards are still not small - 7.5" x 11" each. I'm looking forward to building the cabs now.
Well I finally finished the networks - better late than never! Now I will test them and get started on the cabinets.:bouncy:
I want to thank this website and its members for making this project...

JuniorJBL:
Did you replace the 47uF capacitor which is an NPE on the stock network with the "charge coupled" equivalent? I looked at your...
The schematic in the link above shows a C1 = 56uF, but the schematic in the pdf file "Technical Manual1400 Array Project Array™ Series" show C1 = 47uF. Which is correct, why is there a difference?
Thanks for sharing your project. It's very encouraging. I'm putting together a parts list for the crossover networks, and I noticed you used air-core inductors in the low frequency crossover. What...
Of course! - I have thoroughly studied that thread already. Nice looking job. Did you finish the cabs and mount the xo's in full view? Pictures of the final product?
Rob - I think these coils could do the trick, 600W.

Thanks for letting me know - I have not heard them since I don't have an active xo and biamp setup to test. I will get going on the array 1400 crossovers.
Thanks Rob - I appreciate your advice on this. I'm sure the power handling would be fine either way. I don't want to add any audible distortion if it results from the ferrite core saturation or...
I guess there are really no shortcuts, and I don't want to compromise the performance.
I think this is the correct schematic for the stock Array 1400 crossovers. ...
