(Rob asked a question about the “rig” in my avatar. This is a project I will be starting soon. )
“Big Mo” (short for Big MF ), is a 20-year-old sound system that is badly in need of some maintenance and upgrades. But it still has good sound and loads of headroom. It is 4-way amplified.
The 2395 lenses have 2425H 1” drivers, the HF is two 2405 (as you can see). I forgot which driver I used for the 15” low-mid. I have already replaced the sub and low-mid amplifiers. The two upper channel amps are Hafler 120s, low-mid is a Crown XS500, sub is a Crown CE4000.
I have a JBL DSC280 crossover ready to add, I’m using an Ashley now. The drivers are all JBL, the wood horns are EAW, but I have an old pair of 4560s I may switch over to.
I want to upgrade from the two B460 subs, probably with four 18” drivers, but so far I haven’t found the solution.
Windows and doors of the room have been insulated and boarded up, and heavy insulation has been added above the hung ceiling too.
I have plenty of time to upgrade this system, and I’m hoping to get some ideas here. I’ve been a JBL fan since I was a child. It sure is great to find so many JBL enthusiasts in one place.
