In general, audio repair of any kind doesn’t pay well, and attracts people who do it for the passion rather than the money, and they don’t always have the best business sense. I have used Audivex in...

Congrats on your find! When you say blown, I assume you mean nothing whatsoever comes out of the right side - is that correct? LE15A’s originally came with white surrounds on the cone made of...
Very cool - you’ve got quite a library of drivers to play with :)
I think I read it right that you have everything except enclosures to build SK2-3300’s. I would start there - get something...
The Tweeter in the Ti series is titanium, but instead of having the stamped titanium diamond surround we’re used to in a U.S. titanium tweeter, these have a polymer roll surround.
Both of these...
These are totally different speakers. I have S3100's and Ti2k's (Have not heard Ti6k's). The Ti series is much more of an audiophile speaker - it will give you more pin-point imaging, where the...
If you watch Ebay, most old recone kits go for $170-200, with some occasional rare ones going for a little higher. I’m guessing you can count the number of people looking for a white 128H recone kit...
Bad news - I looked for about an hour and a half, and couldn’t find them. Out of desperation, i went through my DM’s on this site, and found that they’ve already gone to another member on the forum...
Awesome - I have a spare pair as well - let me know if you’re interested. I’m headed up to BC end of this month and could ship them from there if it helps. Have fun with your build - 4430’s are...
Are you doing a 3D copy because you can’t find a pair used, or just because you like a challenge?
Ha - jinx Widget :)
No on the Google image search. I made the assumption that no self respecting audiophile or audio engineer would have his picture taken in a acoustically treated room with fancy speakers and Bose...
No one could make a set of speakers that cool unless they could also make the worlds greatest headphones :)
I’ll give you a few of my opinions, and you can use them, or don’t. First, I also cook a lot, and have a pair of in-ceiling speakers in my Kitchen, though mine are sealed can Triads with a 5.25”...
This is a hobby because there is no one correct answer - the only thing you’re going to get agreement on is that MDF is still too expensive :)
That said, build a test box for one of your 10’s and...
Very cool! You could put together a 1980's Miami Vice style sound system; wear your pastel suit, and find some of the old Adcom equipment that was available in white :)
On your pics, you may need...
Here’s a link to Widget’s latest (?) build:

Is your woofer a SUB1500 or a W1500H? The SUB1500 wasn’t used in much; one...
Sounds like a fun project :)
You may find researching the 251J/2251J a little frustrating, as there were several variants with really similar model numbers (I think they maybe did some -1 and -2...
There is probably no way to find this out. I have never seen a pair in white, so if you have them, post pictures! I would also be very suspicious of a white pair being black originally, and...
I would consider having your electrician run a second 20A circuit to your equipment rack for your subwoofer amplifier. I don’t know all of your equipment, and do know your VTV amps are very...
Yeah, I thought about including UREI, but was not sure the JBL fans consider UREI JBL enough…
I’m going to interpret your question as “Which large, pro monitors can be single-amped?” I am going to define “Larger pro monitors” as those designed for far-field monitoring, and playback at...
Just can't shut the moderator switch off, huh! :) First pic was copy/pasted, and didn't make it...

This is with your (Widget's) old Array1400 L/R and Array880 center speakers. One of...
At one point, I considered doing a M2 build with a 476Be driver, which I think at the time were $7k/pr. I could kind of justify it by selling off a few pairs of speakers (one of my rules with this...
Thanks, but most of it is going away - my youngest kid just went off to university, so now we’re “Empty nesters”. I want to build a smaller house, but my wife told me that there is no way we’re...

Yup, Waveform Acoustics Mach 17's. These are turning out to be more of a challenge than the others, as there are so many system variables. To those that don't know, the speakers are triamp...
Next up, something maybe JBL adjacent - here’s a few hints. Originally used a JBL woofer, Made in Canada, company closed in 2002 after making about 500 speakers over a 16yr period. Any guesses?
