122A VS. 128H WOOFER comparison

[HorizonMike]

I'm probably going to get some scrutiny for this question, but I'm curious. A couple months ago I put some 128h woofers into my JBL l166 Horizons. I was just wondering the Sonic and acoustical differences between the two? Alli can say is what I put in there is a lot better than the JBL loud series woofers.

Hard to tell!

Why would you get scrutiny? JBL actually lists the 128H (128H-1) as the recommended replacement for the L166 when the 122A is not available, so I would feel that at least on some level that it has their blessing. Using the 128H over the 122A should have a number of advantages, including twice the power handling, longer Xmax, no alnico demagnetization worries, etc.

What are you referring to by "JBL loud series woofers"? I am not familiar with the phrase.

All the information is here in the library and or tech posts as far as specs are concerned
This is thread number 3 now-as for "Sonic and acoustical differences between the two?" I would think you would be in the best position to make a determination on the sonics being as you've got them right there in front of your ears to compare!
Get your mid working?
Or decided which version of the LE5-xx you like to use?
Conversation might be a lot more coherent and meaningful if you'd just post all your wonderings in the same place/thread

There is a few of those as well as the fact that this conversation appears to be happening at several places at once
I think he's talking about some car woofers that came in his boxes when he got them
