What horns do these appear to be?

[mikebake]

I'm thinking of rescuing these components before they collect more dust.
The lower cab seems to be a 4560BKA and the upper one contains unknown drivers, but they are almost certainly JBL. I haven't been up there for 4-5 years.

Hello Mike

They look like the 2360 familly to me. Good luck

Seems right. I have a fun project in mind for them...............I'll keep you posted! It will be interesting to see what the subs are. Bldg. was constructed in about 1980. It is a mono system.

2365's perhaps (40x60deg variety)? + 2445 or 2446's...

Probably close. 2360 short throw 2365 medium throw 2366 long throw. Not srue which I'm really hoping they are. These ahd to cover s distance of maybe 100-130 feet to the back of the theatre. I have to climb up there soon and refresh my memory. I am hoping the diaphragms are still good.

2365. easy to tell by the side flare and the 2366 was a good 24 inches deeper. I have a pair of them outside the wood shop door as mice condo's.

The throats alone were used briefly as the HF horn in the concert series wedge monitors and were given the model number 2396. JBL ground off the chain loops and bullnosed the outside edges. If you really need a tower speaker that's only a foot wide, use
these and (4) LE111H.

Think of it ( acoustically ) as a slot / slit diffraction source.

Think of it ( manly ) as a 2405 on steroids that can go to 800hz.

Interesting. Thanks for the info.
You don't happen to have the mounting brackets for them, do you? ANy other thoughts on the 2365? I'm considering trying them on top of the quad 2226H boxes for my outdoor movie rig.

I do have a smattering of 236X brackets parked in the woodshop. I know I have at least 4 of the original issue wood ones and *maybe* some of the metals???? How many do you need? It's gonna be an expedition thru the snow drifts to see.

I gave a pair of 2309A's to "norealtalent" when he came shopping some time ago.

The advantage of full vertical pattern control is very noticeable in club settings but for you it will probably save a few squirrels from certain deafness when you do your outdoor "video" shows.

Har!
Well, you nailed the horn; wanna make a stab at the cab hanging above in the photo?

[subwoof]

Gee - a lot to go on NOT

get more pictures or dimensions.

you know - this site likes full frontal views...

Hey, that'd be easy; even I could get it then!! The front is 30 feet over the audience and not accessible (ast least easily) for viewing. I like the mystery.

[subwoof]

Well my bet is it's a 4550 dual 15 horn. Since there are already 4560's there, and flying scoops ( 4520,4530 ) is a wasted effort, and there were essentially NO other JBL cabs black theater back then, I win.

Send beer.

Someone said it looked like an MDF box; I thought of the 4550 too. I'd rather it be some sort of sub; little use for a 4550, but I'm sure it coud be fun somewhere. Come to think of it, it would be firing into the catwalk area and not at all into the audience, like a 4550 should be. It ain't pointed down like the other stuff.

Question: Mount the "2396" vertically?

I have all of the parts.

Tell me more!
