I am looking for some advice from all the experts out there.
I have inherited a set of what looks like Hartsfield speakers.
They might be copies but not sure the boxes look professionally built but the speakers inside are newer.
it has a2305b woofer, 2440 horn and 2-2405 tweeters, all 16 ohm.
There is no crossovers and please excuse my ignorance but I do not know much about speakers.
They have been in the basement for as long as I can remember maybe 30+ years.
Can anyone help me out on what I have?
Also received a set of D51 Apollo 3 way speakers which came with the Hartsfields.
I have pics but havenÂ’t figured out how to attach them.
Any help would be appreciated.

Welcome to the forum. Please do try to attach images as it will be very helpful.

Here are instructions: http://www.audioheritage.org/vbulletin/faq.php?s=&do=search&q=photos&titleandtext=1&match=all

Based on the model numbers posted, these were likely built in the '70s using JBL Professional series drivers instead of the JBL Consumer drivers that would have been used in the '50s and '60s when JBL was producing the Hartsfield. Take a look at the woofer again. A 23XX model number would be the model number of a JBL Professional horn. JBL Professional woofers almost always are 22XX. Perhaps your woofer is the 2205B?

Hello Mr Widget,
thanx for the reply. Yes u are right it is 2205B.
I will attach pics but on the link to the User Control Panel I do not see a
“photos and albums” link. Maybe I am missing something.
