I was just about to post your pics...

What are those 4350B's on-top of, anyway...?

You must have some help slingin' them around!

They are sort of speaker stands (really a 2x4 framed box covered with oak plywood) on wheels............very helpful when I have to move them............

FYI....you CANNOT recone a 2241 with a 2245 recone kit....not a factory recone kit anyway. I'm sure it's possible to do something with aftermarket parts that are available...but then again it WON'T be a JBL product....I don't care what the "reconer" says. There is always someone out there who is willing to tell you what you want to hear and take your money to accomplish what you want to do...and think is possible. The fact is...ALL Genuine JBL Factory recone kits are preassembled cone/voicecoil/spider assemblies that are designed to fit specific frame/magnet assemblies. The ONLY Genuine JBL recone kit that will fit a 2241 frame is a 2241 kit in either 4 or 8 ohms. How do I know this? I am a JBL authorized recone technician since 1988....and I've seen lots of hack jobs that people actually charged money for!! You have to be careful what you buy...because some things are just not possible. Thanks for listening.

BTW...The previous posts are correct...2245, 2240, E155 frame/magnet assemblies are identical and can be reconed with 2245 recone kit.

I am getting together 4 blown 2241H's and recone them as 2245H, If I can't get the flat wire, I´ll make it.

Hey, Alex -

Giskard had posted this redirect, for you:

And, edgewound, you might wanna "copy" your experienced perspective there, too!

Good to nail this question in the forehead.

I finally got only 2 2241 baskets, so I used 2245 cones and surrounds, 2242 coils and spiders; I have these Frankenwoofers, but have not found the time to test them, will let You know.
