    That should work fine. Just make sure that the tweeters are flush with the front edge of the L200. You don't want reflections from the 077's off of the top surface of the L200.

    Hey, Angel...

    Since this is a L200 lovefest, and there ain't no L's to bust , if you've not got the L200 brochure, here's a Link to it on the Lansing Heritage site (it was too LARGE to provide here as a re-compiled .pdf... )

    And, to comfort you that the 077/2405 fits nicely in the baffle (provided you can get a clean cut ), here's what the L300 looks like, and a Link for it's literature, too...

    OK, final thought...

    I personally think the 4333 layout is best, with the 2405 to the side of the horn - that way you could mirror image the pair (putting the 2405's to the outside of each baffle, L/R), which some of us find quite pleasing...

    Hi Bo

    The original 4333 had all of the drivers aligned on a vertical axis like the L300. You can see this in the picture you posted above. The speaker with the grill off is a 4333.

    I think it was on our old forum that Giskard weighed in on the advantages of a vertical alignment (I couldn't find it on a quick search of this forum). You may want to get him to reiterate his assessment on this.
    Regards

    My opinion was soley based on the 1st version as Don had mentioned. I hadn't realized the differences were of that degree! Sometimes It's not so good to be consistant as I am.........correct some of the time, wrong most!

    Hey, Don...

    I shoulda been specific to 4333A. Duly noted.

    And, I know Giskard is fond of vertical alignment as per this Thread: http://audioheritage.csdco.com/vbull...=baffle+layout

    but, the dood also is fond of paired imaging, too.

    This quandry might drive him ...

    Wow! ask him if He has a wood cabinet for a 3600???

    I have a pair of L-300s which are kind of the next evolution fom your 200s. I no longer feel the need to upgrade speakers. What people Don't like about them I love! I would like a pair of 4343s are many others but I just don't have the room!

    Allegedly the vertical alignment isn't "supposed" to be as critical with the 077/2405 since it operates at such an extreme frequency, but JBL made mirror imaging available regardless. Of them all I personally think the L300 arrangement sounds best in a home. I've determined that unless one does a direct A/B and can actually come up with a preference it isn't worth fretting over. Personally, if I was starting from scratch with a pair of enclosures I would just use the L300 alignment (transducers mounted off centerline though) and forget about it
