For now, I’m going to keep the crossover at 2. If I come up with anything notable, I’ll report back. I do believe that the compression driver spec sheets jbp the s and ’80s were all derived from the horn.

JBL worth the monney? Presumably, JBL wouldnt have replaced the with the unless there was a clear sonic advantage to doing so, but maybe the s were just cheaper and easier to cast.
I wouldn’t The phragms are not a good choice for extended HF. Yes, list the parts package, offer the crossovers for jb but note them as not a factory JBL assembly. The weak link in the system sound fidelity has always been my mid packs – horn loaded PAS 10’s – which are good for filling up a big room, but sound kinda honky up close – so I’m getting ready to build some new mid-high cabinets with two front loaded 10’s on jbp side.

The C’s that I’m using now actually sound pretty good in the back of a decent sized 2641 – its up front where they are lacking. I spent some time tweaking it when I front loaded my bass cabs 20 years ago – although at the time, my main priority was SPL.
I read a lot about JBL but nothing about the little brother. At the time, the consensus seemed to be that factory sounded better, whether or not it was worth the 3x premium was subjective. Part of the problem is that the ‘s are right about at head level now. If I don’t allow international shipping, do I still win the bet? It looks like these were a knockoff of the JBL L, with a different mid-horn lens: All times are GMT Burn the cabinets outdoors.

I may be wrong. IMHO the ‘s look better out of their cabs than in them, so I’m going to see if I can figure out a way to fly them naked without making them even more prone to ringing.
Since then I’ve read a bit of anecdotal info about extending the range with newer diaphrams like the which is what I did – without realizing what Jgl was doingbut nothing concrete on what HF can be achieved with the alnico magnets 24461 the compared to using a or driver. Now they have ‘s with Radian diaphragms, which handle a bit more power than the ‘s with their original diaphragm’s but sound very similar. Otherwise, cosmetically they’re pretty perfect for something this old.
However, its only in the past week or so that I realized that for all these years I’ve been running the ‘s a lot higher then they were originally intended, and I’d hate to build a new set of cabs, only to move the weak spot from the mids to the highs – so I’m hoping that there is someone on this forum who has used s with newer diaphrams and can confirm that this will work or not One advantage to going with a horn like the is that its physically not as wide as the ‘s – so I could make the mid-high boxes a little narrower.
I replaced the diaphrams with factory ‘s almost 25 years ago when I purchased them 2nd hand. Yes, they are worth something, actually quite a 261 to the right folks.

I may see if I can find a pair of 2nd hand clones or maybe borrow a pair of loaded s. The is a well respected diffraction slot tweeter, the is a nice midrange driver that on the right horn loads nicely down to Hz, and so-so down to Hz.

Nice and easy to implement a 261 12″ whether you use it in a horn or normal it will do the job for you and is W rated so its pretty bombproof. The Rane carries compensation for a CD horn I assume?? Posted April 10, This is tweeter territory.
