Those look great! I seein yiur sig you gave KLF-30's. In your experience, how do they compare? Thanks!
Honestly, I've never compared the 2 models. I have the klf30s in my home theater and haven't done much stereo listening with them.

I haven't been on here much in awhile. I haven't been using these much and that's not fair to them. These are in great shape. One grill has one scar, that's about it. They sound great. The original spikes and covers have been removed, but I have replaced them with threaded inserts and plastic feet. I will include adjustable feet for the front for tilting. I'm asking $1200 for the pair.

you must be one of the only, if not the only one using a sealed sub in stead of a hornloaded. Have you also used a hornloaded? or is this your first try. very curious on how it sounds. i currently use two THTLP subs.
I have not used a horn loaded sub. I've never experienced one. This SB16-Ultra fell in my lap for less than half price new and it's been working/sounding great. Like I said, I needed to change how it was wired and configured because of going to a new preamp. I either need lessons in xconsole or someone to help with the dsp on the SVS.

Xconsole is very daunting at first... you're not only learning a new software package, it forces you to look at how you listen to music and what effects SMALL changes in signal control can have on the overall sound... so you have to learn about sound reproduction (in terms of speaker settings) in addition, unless someone is feeding you settings.
it takes time to become proficient, but it's not an impossible task if you have some dedication and are semi-fluent in computer operations.
I've found the Xconsole to be a very powerful tool...
Oh I completely agree that Xconsole is a very powerful tool, I just don't understand enough of it. I need someone to offer a class or 2, or 100 😕

You mean using XConsole? It's a bit quirky but stick with it, you will get the hang of it. It is A LOT easier than using the front panel controls.
I don't know enough about crossover settings to actually do it properly.

ChrisA? OK you're good
Yea, he's been awesome, I just haven't heard from him. Hope everything is ok

You have XConsole SW? And a measurement microphone and REW?
Yes, I have a umic1 microphone and all the software, I just don't understand the programming. I can take measurements and import setting configs.
I've been having Chris A help me but he's been busy. I just started this subwoofer piece last week.

So your Jubes are 2 way with a Xilica 4080? If so use the Xilica to do all the crossover and PEQ to the sub. That should make it transparent and easy to swap input preamps except for level.
That could work for me, but I don't understand programming the xilica enough to do this.

I'd set my sub/svs upper 'cutoff' lower... what kind of slope are you using for that xo point?
Also, The Xilica 4080 will do a three-way AND a sub.
Lower is going to have a more pleasing hand off to the Jubilee bass bin imho... as the two signals briefly 'Cross Over', they (hopefully) 'Sum' and if there is to much overlap, they will create a bump in output at that frequency range.
I'll play with the svs crossover some more. Everything I was reading about setting a sub crossover was to set it around 10hz higher than what the speakers can do.
As far as having the xilica handle the sub, I still don't really understand what I'm doing as far as settings, so I have been having someone help me with that.

Will that even remotely keep up with the Jubilees?
The sub has been working really well using the sub preout on the Parasound preamp

I'm currently using a Parasound P6 preamp with a subwoofer output with built in crossover. I'm trying to change my setup to use my subwoofers settings to manage bass instead of my preamp. This will make demoing preamps without sub outs easier since we are thinking about upgrading. Jubilee bass bins go down to around 45hz. I currently have my SVS crossover set for 50hz with a slope of 6db.
I'm really not certain what I'm doing. I've basically been taking measurements with REW and making changes. I've been trying to keep the frequency chart as flat as possible with trying to let the sub go as deep as possible before roll off. Any advice?

So what are the top speakers ? Home made ?
Yes

They look like heresy horns, drivers, and crossovers with KG2.5 or 3.5 woofers. Pretty well done cosmetically speaking.

In case anyone is looking for replacements, this is what I bought, they look nice and they are made of metal

Just look up 'plastic finish washers'. There are tons avalable.
Thank you! Now I just need to figure out the correct size. Thank you so much for the direction.

Yea, they are plastic. I didn't think of those cabinet hanging washers. That might work.

I can't find much information on these crossovers. My buddy has a pair of Cornwall verticals from 1963 or 1964 (B is the serial tag letter) that we've been trying to restore. The crossovers are Type 2. I know Type B are typical for the original Cornwalls, and can't find much info on these Type 2. They use the same cap values and we already recapped them with JEM caps. Besides the obvious visual differences, are these sonically different than the Type B? Thanks

This is a center channel which was meant to be used next to TVs of the era, so they are magnetically shielded. You can probably leave that piece off if using a modern flat panel TV or projector.
