    So who's going to step up and agree to coordinate getting these plans and crossover info together?

    A mentor is a must!
    Hello Ian - If you or another forum member decides to build a "Product Profile" on the 4343 - 4344 - 4345, I would be happy to provide the plans that I have accumulated for these monitor enclosures. I have detailed drawings for the 4343 and the 4345. My 4344 plans are lacking a few details but are close. Although the original baffle layout on the 4344 has flaws, I have original baffle info should anyone want it.

    My plans are no more than detailed drawings of how JBL built the cabinets and of course, as you well know by now, I do not have the electronic background to assist beyond cabinet construction. I would gladly provide what I have with the understanding that they are just detailed drawings. There is no amount of information that could be added to these drawings, that would allow an individual with no skills to produce a quality end product. The individual builder must have the knowledge to choose correct materials and make necessary joints to build the enclosure.

    I did some time ago provide detailed drawings of the 4350. To my knowledge nobody to this date has bellied up to the bar and started building a pair. The information is none the less there.

    I don't think money should change hands for this type of information. Unless I've missed something in my time on the forum, the members have freely shared info in their respective areas of expertise. I have benefitted many times from you, Giskard and many others on my projects. I'm happy to return the favor and provide any info that I have.

    Some good thoughts and some rambling - Rick

    Some reference reading for you.

    Google Search ( for ) JBL Cabinet Plans.

    This website does have some most excellent plans for a 4344 on it ( albiet with a modified // better layout )

    Depending on the amount of handholding you might need, you may want to employ Ian as a consultant for your project.
