Wrench722 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 I kinda been using some Speaker Lab and a little others I have found here and there. Then I do a lot other stuff to reinforce them. I ues 3/4" and 1/2" plywood and stanless steel tee nuts and bolts and brass screws. I have been selling a package deal for $25.00. It has four diffrent kinds of plans. But for you just check your email. I get the 15" driver from Bob and the mids I find 511's on Ebay and the driver from Bob and the high I use the JBL 2404 and crossover ES-5800 and ES-400T that I build my self.

greg928gts Posted August 16, 2008 Author Share Posted August 16, 2008 Thanks Wrench. What I meant was, are you selling the KHORNS and if so, how much are you getting for them. I'm just wondering how the market is for your speakers. Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrench722 Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 For just the cabinets I am getting $2500.00 and with the good innerds around $5000.00 a set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEvan Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Astounding...though I've seen most of thses photos before this was the first time I looked at the JBL restorations. Not only is the work beautiful as everybody mentioned, but so creative (as evidenced by the Heresy reconfig). A minor edit: It's "Heresys" as in two of them, not "Heresy's" as in 'Heresy is'..

Marvel Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Greg, I love the work on the JBLs. My 4311s (I'm the original owner, got them in early '70s) have at least one of the tweeter dust caps pushed in a little. I think my daughter did it one time while laying on the floor in front of the speakers. The original grill cloth doesn't really afford too much protection. I have never noticed any difference in the sound quality. Since these were primarily made to mount up higher or in a soffet, the mid and tweeter are on the bottom. This tends to make the higher get sucked out if you have them placed on the floor. While I had mine on the floor, I turned them upside down to get the tweeter higher. With the logo now upside down, they didn't look as nice, so I redid the graphic on the aluminum plates, but did so redoing the layout. I was going to have new ones silkscreened. Alas, like many of my own projects, I haven't finished the job. I also still want to refurbish the crossovers. Bruce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg928gts Posted August 16, 2008 Author Share Posted August 16, 2008 Bruce - I didn't know which way to put the ones I restored, I had seen them set up both ways. I could have sworn that they came to me with the tweets on top (emblem on bottom and right side up). Maybe that was the L100's, I don't remember. Both sets were sold to a guy out in California. The quality of the components was very good, and the cabinets were well built, but I really didn't like the sound of them that much. Not my cup of tea.

Marvel Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 So it's not Heresies? We went through this a long time ago, and most agreed it would be Heresies for the plural of Heresy. They still show up written both ways.I still like my JBLs, but being totally DRs, the sound is a bit different than horns. I don't have mine connected to anything at the moment. Perhaps if I get the crossovers recapped, I'll compare again. I used to have the settings for where to put the L-pads so they were more flat, but I've misplaced it.

fini Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 The proper plural of Heresy is Heresy loudspeakers. [] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fenderbender Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 The proper plural of Heresy is Heresy loudspeakers. So would the plural of Klipschorns be Klipschornys or Klipschornies???[] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
