I visited a friend and measured B on a brace of JBL drivers, remagged some. I saw that a few were probably re-gaussed previously because they had B values marked inside, but that writing was on some of the 10-odd opened drivers only. The "magic" numbers, however, could be found on every driver and every fram, no exception. Hence i believe they were written at manufacturing time. I saw them on old and new drivers, ferrite, neo and alnico. Does anyone know about them or can provide a link to info on the meaning of JBL's "magic numbers"?
Attached a few shots. The "+1" fram came from the "-3" driver which looked like never opened (but i bought it 2nd hand...). Numbers i saw range from -3 to +3
Any clues?
