I only want to build my own pair of 4355 which has to be finished first...if the CNC programs are available and there is really any interest for a kit then I maybe or not will think about it...
The problem with this big ones is the WAF...most of them do not want to have cabinets like this in their living room...this means not much of this sets would be sold.
Just go to your wife and ask her what she is thinking about this cabinets which are maybe bigger than her wardrobe...don`t forget to crouch down after you asked :-)
I had already discussions...I additionally have to build a hall of hell for my speaker collection to be able to enjoy some nightly music sessions together with my friends and a lot of beer...such speakers are costly...just think about if you really want that
16 Hz can not be substituted
Hi Ralf,
I have 2311 abd 2308 to, and a couples of 2441,2446,2450 2inch drivers, and listening some of them in 4333 diy boxes, I believe that longer ,larger horn like A290,would be more "musical "and natural, that some of the forum members can confirm. Owing to your CNC fortune, nice wooden horns would be "a must"
Such type of horn does not need any more compensation then 2311 2308 (having almost perfect flar FR) up to 10kHz..
On quite large box as 4355 such large horn (about 66cm wide) would be almost easy to be installed.
You are right thar 4355 are very very large boxes, but their sound efficieny is very very respectable.
I can only imagine that dual 2245 would override 4355 bass strength , for sure in almost twice larger box.
On my taste, I prefer even single 2245 then dual 2235. I wonder, my be dual 2231A would be
comparativ to 2245.
Especally the human voice reproduction of 2202 ,For Me, is something unforgetable.
The other large problem about such project wuold be the availability of the drivers in good conditions
Not to mention the prices if the are in original condition
proper ultra low noise amps would be a problem to, the sensitivity is about 100dB 1m 1W.
best luck in your project
regards
ivica
Challenger604 did a great job!.. only JBL 4350,55 owners can truly appreciate the sheer presence and sound of these.. I had no idea they would sound this real... Adele's HELLO sounds truly amazing. The bottom end is astounding.. don't need no stinking subwoofers here! unless your crazy like me.. added 2 Velodyne HGS-15's
JBL 4355 | JBL 4351 | JBL 4425 x 2 | JBL XPL 200 | JBL XPL 160 | JBL 4345
Just to let you guys know how my 4355 story proceeded: They finally went to my new home (in fact, I moved just to find a suitable place for those speakers ), and I am getting there. Already very pleased with the sound, there's some room acoustics issues to take care of right now.

Nice setup!
I like those tilted shelves!
