The bracing took me two weeks.
I wanted to brace the baffle and the back panel in the middle (horizontal) and then connect them from with each other.
Rest of the bracing is a mix from the Design-Cut drawings and keeping the vents clear in the back.

Nick: Found the box; it has a brand and even made in Germany.
Maybe you can find it there.
Found a way to support the 2425 on the back frame/panel.
I thought it was better when the support is not touching the ML enclosure.
Jblp, stellar work as usual. Thanks for posting that info. I'll check the manufacturers site. See if I can get my hands on one here in the states.
I bet you can't wait to get them playing?
Looking good,
Nick
Hi JBLP,
Great work, especially the details!
One more pair 4344's in the Netherlands
I painted the inside with a wood primer to make the cabinet less sensitive to humidity.
The baffle is painted with a wood primer in color. It's blue, but for sure not the JBL one.
I'm still looking for the right JBL blue.
I have used BRILLANTBLAU RAL 5007 with good results.
Very nice job with the wood work!
What a labor of love... very nice.
Most likely the most beautifully finished interior of any JBL extant... factory made or DIY!

What a great project... but very dangerous. I thought I had got all that refurbishment stuff out of my system, but I can feel the old enthusiasm starting again. I am really looking forward to to seeing the finished product. Best of luck with all the work still to be done. What you have done so far looks really excellent

Hi JBLP,
As I mentioned before (through PM?) It seems that the original JBL blue paint is impossible to match right.
The color will always bee too vivid/bright compared to the original.
Still, it looks good! Klasse!
