    Sansui G5700, No sound, need tech info about possible unusal solution

    I was stupid enough too let someone borrow my G5700 for a while, and got it back silent. I suspect that it was hooked up too more than one pair of speakers, and driven hard enough too blow the output stage. Since then it has been stored for some years. I don't think I am able to fix this my...

    what JBL speakers came with rubber surrounds?

    Your L46 was probably born with foam surrounds. wich rotted and got replaced with butyl later. I do suspect that your woofers now have a tad earlier roll off, and maybe even sligthly less sensitivity than the stock foam surrund woofers I have a pair of JBL XPL 200`s where the midwoofer, a...

    JBL "square" drivers decor ring source.

    Efficient speakers

    Aren't the most fuel efficient cars mostly small and have a very narrow power band, or if we count in the electric cars, pretty silent? A loudspeaker equivalent of this would be an extremely peaky bookshelf, but the silent part, doesn't really match up with a efficient speaker. I'm...

    JBL speakers are they really that good?
