    JBL 2225H testing time - JBL heaven:)

    But first a little update on some new mid bass horns I built.

    Here they are in the workshop



    Square peg in a round hole





    These were modelled and built for the Eminence Kappa 15A drivers.

    They kick ass more than the shorter larger throat ones with the same driver. Great for rockier / heavier music... (Nirvana Lithium, ACDC Back in Black etc etc)

    I've been listening to them for a while now, However I thought I'd share this too:-

    Then today I was able to loan a pair of JBl 2225J 15" drivers.

    I loaded them into my shorter / larger throat round exponential mid bass horns for a trial - I have a pair of JBL 2220H's on a slow boat from Canada arriving at some point so the 2225 are for loan and a test out.

    Initial thoughts were that they were a bit lighter on bass compared to my Kappa 15A's on the same horn.
    Played all sorts of stuff, but centred around rock and heavy rock / bassy stuff they got better and better.
    2 scenarios came to mind. One is that they were NOS as they look absolutely mint and we are running them in and they were freeing up. The other is that they are little used and have sat on a shelf face down for years and years and the suspension etc went through a similar freeing up.

    Bit of a revelation really!

    So I have high hopes for the 2220's that model slightly better than the 2225's do on my round exponential's. Lower Qt among other things.

    Good show, speedysteve! Many audiophiles have little concept of the potential phenomenal accuracy and ultra-involving sound of such a time-aligned horn system as yours. Listen to favorite LPs with the lights out and time travel to exotic destinations. Best wishes as you continue your journey!
