Picked up three! JBL 2213's at the post office this morning. They look great, the recones look first rate (but they used black cones and foam surrounds :( )
Now, if I start feeling a bit better soon (allergies just slammin' this morning) I'll swap the little JBL auto subs out and put these big guys in.
I admit I'm a sucker for a nice, hefty cast frame and large motor/magnet structure :D
Now the cabinets will really be 2/3 JBL! The Pioneer tweets I think are 'better' than the LE25, but I have been beatin' the bushes lookin' for a pair of the JBL's.
Mebbe the D123A's WILL be found and delivered now that I've got a surplus of excellent woofer drivers.
I'm still waiting for the four Metra woofers (yes, the same Metra that makes the excellent wiring harnesses and acc's for mobile sound systems).
Got an idea for doing a chimney kinda thing, mount them facing each other, use the whole basement as an infinite baffle. Do it like in modules, or with the capacity to add other drivers (well, I do have a bunch of quality woofers here to play with). One of the crazy guys at Stereo Review did that and wrote a great story on it in the magazine a few?? years ago. He ducted the output up into his listening room. I KNOW I still have that issue somewhere here.
