JBL 4343 build.....

[ARMED]

So I decided to build a 4343....my original plan was to build a 4333, but I know after couple of months, I will end up building a 4 way...
so to save time and money....why not just go straight to a 4 way...i know im in over my head on this build...
So please help me out....

I will be running 2405, LE85/H91, 2122, 2226...i will have a 2235 maybe after i get rid of some stuff...
I do not have the crossover yet, this is my problem....id like to get a DIY 3143/3144....i know it will be hard to find an original one...and if theres one
for sale, its probably going to cost me an arm and a leg...

this build is probably not going to be an exact copy...this is my first DIY from scratch..ill try my best to make it look like the original...

please comment if theres anything i need to know or watch out for while doing this build...thanks in advance!!!!

oh, and i do not have all the cool gadget to test the frequencies and all...like all the graph thingy that I see from other thread/build..
so this is basically a build and listen kind of deal...and hope that all will sound good...

Hi ARMED,

I would suggest You to use 244x & 2311 instead of 242x&2307

I agree with Ivica. You should follow 4313B's 4345 build except on a 4344 cabinet.

[ARMED]

back panel with the door...yeah its not like the OEM...

door for the LE85 and 2405H

It looks like everything is proceeding nicely.

[ARMED]

dog house...it will be glued and screwed on the sides..

Hi,

Our forum member 4313B has suggest something like this:
so You can start from here, and adjust the driver sensitivity.

I have read about hundreds of posts about the 4 way network...even 4313B said the 3143 belongs to the museum..
I guess ill go with the CC network...I just hope I don't mess it up...

[ARMED]

thanks for the help!

[ARMED]

thanks ivica...

this is going to be a nightmare

[quindecima]

It will be easier to build the exact copy than to formulate your own, those plans are already out there. I agree with the others, follow 4313b's plans you can't go wrong with them.

[ARMED]

thanks berga12!!!

not so much here....still trying to figure out what kind of brace i need to use... might go with the poplar 1x2 (3/4x1.5)

[ARMED]

[ARMED]

Krunchy...i cant wait!!! almost there....
crossver i think will take a while...

GO PACK GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
