Did you say you're putting 116H-2s in these?
That'd be one very good reason not to glue them in....
How do you know if they are 1 or 2 or whatever?
they are 116s with inverted dustcaps.

It says on them what they are.
L19 used 116A Alnico
L19A used 116H ferrite
Other than the magnet material, they are otherwise the same, with identical T/S parameters.
Both have inverted calottes.
The recommended replacement is 116H-3.
Thought I saw you say somewhere you were installing H-2s.

Huh.
The total cost for both woofers ended up being $25 which includes refoaming. Kind of awesome.

Zilch speaks the truth -- you and your dad put lots of time and effort into these, they look great, so finish the last step the right way, then sit back, fire 'em up, and be proud of them. :thmbsp:

Ouch, two badges is more $$ than I spent refoaming the woofers!
I think I'll just live with it.

I know what you mean...
I don't have any badges on my L110's, that's why I was looking...
Actually, it was a few months before I realized that they used to have them, and I've gotten used to the straight black look without them. It doesn't add anything to the

BAH! I read 18 uF as 10!!! ARRRrggg, oh well, new caps are coming by friday. $12 each. Ouch.
lrb1951 was nice enough to send me a grill peg, and that should be here around the same time so then MAYBE I can finish this upcoming weekend.
The good news is that the 10 uf caps are a common value and I can probably use them in another pair of speakers

The 8" 2 way design by Winslow Burhoe, you know, EPI 100 series?
Great sounding little systems, 8" woofer, 1" "air spring" tweeters and one 10uf cap for the crossover.
Try one, you like it. They compare very favorably to the L19 in my opinion, response from like 48 to 1800 is virtually flat, very smooth.

Okay, well I have yet to listen to the L-19s anyways.
