I refinished my L-100-A's and they look great. Trouble was I hooked the first one done up as per the handbook that came with them; (it shows the woofer black to greeb black, green to red) ; and I had put a note on the wires(when I disconnected) showing black to red.
Since it appears that what I wroteconflicted with the instruction manual, I hooked them up as per the instruction manual. I then went to play the first one done on the left channel, with my 4312 on the right channel. After a bout 1 minute, it activated my amp protection circuit (ouch!!)
First, I suppose I need to play the L-100s in pairs, will a 4312 on one speaker and a L100 on the other channel cause an imbalance in my amp to activate the circuitry, or did I just drop the ball on the hookup??
How can I trouble shoot the problem to absolutely verify correct hookup, since I really dont want to fry anything in either speaker set; as I'm already working on three other JBL speaker pairs for my media room; and they're costing enough already...
Did I damage the speaker in doing this??
the woofer involved is a 123A-3
I'm going to to the battery (polarity) test described here:
http://www.audioheritage.org/vbullet...ghlight=123a-3
the battery test showed a positive AA battery to red was a negative displacement of the woofer; and when reversed (black to AA positive, the speaker had a positive movemtn toward you.
however any further help is appreciated.
