    Say, "Ahhh..."

    Sorry the exit of the compression driver is not focussed! Tough shot to get.

    NB: there is no distortion of the pic - that is the true shape of the horn.

    The, ahem, "other" end...

    Sorry the medallion glared - it's polished chrome finish (like the 435Be)...

    The talented hands of Mr. Widget were left-in for scale...

    045Be

    The 043 was a typo. I have subsequently corrected this in the thread title.

    what kind ?

    What type of diaphragm does it use, I realize it's Be., but is it simular to an 075,6,7 -2404 ? anular, I think ? I talked to a guy at Westlake and man was he drunk with TAD stuff ! Not that it isin't any good. I asked them about the rumor that they "bought up" all the 076's and the guy replied , "NO", we bought a "production run of 2403's". My biased curiousity begged the question: "Great tweeters huh ?" He said he'd rather have TAD. I asked him what the equivalent TAD UHF driver would be and ( ha-ha ) he said he didn't know but he'd rather have TAD. That gets me to my question. Does JBL sell these new Be. drivers to the public ?, to anyone like , say, Weaklake ,uh ,Westlake? Sorry, I just had to rib them a little.... Great copies of JBL designs, Pioneer, right? Oh, yeah, they made the "super-tuner" car stereos....

    The picture below shows a disassembled example with its 1" diaphragm.
