    JBL 2245 Ideal enclosure

    I have been reading the enclosure guide for
    the JBL 2245.

    Does everyne follow this guide? It doesent
    seem to go as low as i want it to go.

    What is the ideal design if i want it to be down
    to 14 - 16hz

    maybe lower the FS of the driver in some way?

    You aren't taking into account natural room EQ. Read about it on the Internet. Buy some books. Know the room you're building your system for.

    The 2245H doesn't respond real well to corner placement. Use single 2242H's instead if you're planning on doing that. Try sealed first and then ported and see which yields the prefered response.

    How do you know it doesn't go as low as you want? You have some previous experience with it?

    Perhaps you need to look at running the 2245H in a B6 alignment. Put it in 8.0 to 10.0 cubic feet, tuned to 20 Hz and then apply a 20 Hz auxilary filter with Q of 2.

    No, the B460 is a B5 alignment with an auxilary filter at 26 Hz with a Q of 2.

    That`s realy right.

    Hey Niklas, I have seen 3 2245 and one 2240 on ebay. What is a good price for a recone needed 2245/2240 in EUR?

    Lightbulb Field Service Manual

    Today I found some Informations about enclosures with 2245H. These are from JBL`s "Field Service Manual" from 198x. I got it from a local JBL-Dealer. Next time I will get it to scan it completely...

    I'm surprised. That`s nearly the same result as I have calculated here:
