tigerwoodKhorns Posted March 11, 2019 Author Share Posted March 11, 2019 Very nice. Have you done any mods? I know that the tweeters probably need a new piece of foam under the diaphragm and I'd like to build charge couples crossovers for them.

Welcome to the club. Good to see I am not the only one running JBL and Klipsch rooms. I run Chorus II's also. Here is how I am set up currently. It is a small room, so compromise is required. They just sound so much better in there than in the open concept upstairs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
314carpenter Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 I am not looking forward to the long days ahead when I begin the process of uninstalling, disassembling 14 jbl tweeters, removing, cleaning, replacing the speaker foam inserts, final reassembly, and then reinstalling. Fortunately all of the foam vent plugs in all of my JBL woofers have been removed and replaced with metal screens. I have had all my JBL woofers professionally rebuilt by Bill at AudioVentures in Waukesha, WI. Along with the foam surrounds, he also replaces the spiders, regaps the coils, and installs new dustcaps. If you are thinking about doing anything with those crossovers, better start saving up now. I am adding a pic of the stock JBL 250TI crossover for those out of the loop. Please note: on the second pic is 3.466KG. That's 7.641LB stock. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are indoors and upstairs and it is way too hot to keep the windows opened this time of the year. Is Teak Oil or rejuvenating oil a good start?

The Dude Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 Had a pair of those given to me. Both the lf driver surrounds were shot, had a local guy redo them for $150 each. Bottoms of cabinets were shot, ended up selling for $1200.00. Sounded great, just power hungry. Sent from my SM-G986U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I have wanted a pair since I first saw and heard them as a kid at a stereo store. My first speakers were JBL L60T's. Bought new at age 19. Should never have sold them. L19s for me.. 50 years ago. ..😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently have 250ti, L20t, Century 100s, L7s, LX55s and 2600 bookshelfs. Yikes, six pairs, didn't realize that I had that many. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it stinky? Fumes bother me and as of today, our AC is working like crazy so we cannot open the windows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
