I'm curious why did old Westlake designs use a 2425J (or equivalent) 1" compression driver without a horn while having a Be TAD on the midrange, what was the designer trying to achieve? I thought the...

Hydrogen peroxide makes the 123/2213s white as snow again, I wouldn't bother with any kind of additional coating! I've done it with peroxide on multiple 4311/4312 sets. Even the cheap 'watery' one...
Just a heads up, this pair is still around and has been sold somewhere last year.

It would've been a bit too easy :))) Especially AFAIK the SA cones are still being manufactured as opposed to C8R2235.
Is it? I know the surrounds fit, but what about the magnet assembly depth and such?
Hi Ian,
The 4001 seemed as the go-to choice due to both being of roughly the same vintage as the 4350, just to retain the old 'soul'.
I doubt it's viable but of I was to replace the woofers in the...
Will do some day, but considering the current exorbitant 4001 prices, I'm hunting for a bargain to pull them from a pair of PA cabs (some companies in Europe had 4001 and 4002 loaded cabs years ago)....
I'm quite curious as to what would happen if one would 1:1 swap the 2440 in the 4350 with a TAD4001?
I'm guessing the 3107 would boost the TAD even further giving a quite 'crystal clear' sounding...
I've seen them for sale indeed but I'm mostly curious about the connection between both brands, if any.
Hi all,
I've recently acquired a pair of french Audioanalyse speakers that I initially thought were loaded with Altec 515's. To my surprise the units turned out to be Focal Audiom 15A with massive...
Gorgeous drivers, I'd say quality wise closer to TAD rather than JBL, the whole horn assembly and phase plug are machined brass.
It looks like the diaphragm is sitting recessed and thus...
I've seen both, thank you. Looks like the diaphragm is being centered by either the phase plug in the middle or some kind of shim?
Does anybody know how to remove the horn of this supertweeter for cleaning and polishing? There are 3 screws on the back but I'd rather not have to realign the diaphragm or have the driver fall...
Sorry for bumping this old thread, just to make sure - RED is (+) on the back terminals for both? Are the 2x 15" woofers IN or OUT of phase with the MF/HF?
Aren't the Onkyo's known for dying HDMI boards? Not sure if this model is affected as well.
I understand, my experience is that these woofers don't sound as good as they can when passive filtered. However, I was referring to as to why route the MF/HF through the active crossover first, is...
Ah, I was referring to the 4350, factory set up.
OTOH, why do we have to run the HF output through the active xover, just for the sake of the highpass for the 3107? Curious what would happen if we skipped the active xover for the MF/HF section and...
Just curious, have you compared it sound-wise to more hi-end gear like Bryston / Pass / Accuphase crossovers?
Also, Sigma 78/79 series seem to be discontinued, do you know any good alternatives?...
So pretty much better to sell it as it is because it cannot be brought to modern levels, sound wise?
Yes, it also came with Kenrick Sound 4350 cards.
I've enjoyed your thread through google translate yesterday evening already ;)
Regarding replacing the op-amps - I'm actually more concerned about high frequency oscillations when using high speed...
Thought you guys might find it interesting, I got a Kenrick Sound modded JBL/Urei 5235.
Not sure if it's the standard work the guys carry but this one seems to have been done this year.
...
What was the connection between McCauley and JBL back in the day, the McCauley drivers look very much like tweaked / uprated JBL?...
Ah now I get it. I think in general C8R2235 should be gray? Still I've seen them in different tints and then there is Kenrick in Japan who paints them black anyway.
