Hello,
I'm new to the forum and to JBL and wanted to say hello and share my find.
I found these speakers buried in a craigslist ad for video stuff. From the time I spoke to him to the time we shook hands I was expecting to miss out on the sale as a few days elapsed from the time we spoke to the day we met.
Heres a pic of what I found when I arrived:
Peering in the back
No sound from the HF section and the bass sounds funny, this may be the problem...
The bass bins are loaded with a D140R and a 2245H. I have another D140r in a box. It may have a problem, I have not swept it yet
Here's a pic of the XO's,2445J, bullet tweeters and that interesting acoustic lens
The price was $350 which I think was pretty darn good.
I want to build a pair of speakers using these parts and my first question is
"How appropriate are the D140R for hi fi use and should I be considering getting another 2245 for LF use?
Due to my listening room, I will likely go with a traditional vented box but I am open to suggestions.
