    JBL L222 refoamed

    Finally finished the re-foaming of both the 15" passive and 14" woofers. These speakers sound amazing. They still need a little more on the refinishing of the wood but for now its done. Sitting next to my Norman Model 10's and JBL HP520 in the back. Definitely keepers.

    JBL L222's!!

    I picked up a pair of JBL L222's for $50. Woofers need to be refoamed and wood needs a little TLC. They are heavy as hell and barely fit in my Jeep Cherokee. Very excited to get these restored and hook them up to my Kenwood 700's.

    Can you have too much power ?

    I have my Kenwood 700m around #2 on the output dial and I rarely get to the half mark on the 700C volume dial. Maybe I am not used to pure power but thats really loud for me. I have cranked my Polk RTi12's to half power on both kenwoods and the walls are rattling. I cant imagine what it would...

    Bi-amping

    I had not been to please with the Polk Rti12's running on my Kenwoods, not quite the sound I was looking for. I recently found an Integra ADM-2.1 amp for cheap and figured I would try to bi-amp the Polks. What a difference it makes, sounds so much better. I might see if I can air brush it to...

    Kenwood KX-1030 :)

    Belts are in great shape but it does need a new pinch roller, it messed up one of my cassettes. Sound is great though. The KX-830 is going to my daughter with the KR-4070 I just got for her, but I will probably replace the pinch roller on this one also. I just need to locate a replacement or...

    Kenwood System CL Listing

    I have been lucky on the belts of my current KX-1030 and KX-830 but both could use a new pinch roller. Hopefully its not too difficult to change out.

    Kenwood System CL Listing

    It would be nice to have in my bedroom, not to replace my 700's. :)

    Kenwood KX-1030 :)

    I just got this in. I got this one because it came in the original box with manuals and original receipt from 1978 with extended service plan till 1980 from a place called Dixie Hifi. This will make a great addition to my Kenwood 700M and 700C which also have their original boxes and documents.

    Your photo, critiqued and/or praised. It's about learning and improving.

    Its no problem. My photo is called "The Landing" so cropping it would change what the photo is saying. :)

    Am I the only one who seeks matching components?

    I do this also but it will take some time before I get my hands on a 700T to complete my set.

    Cassette tape decks, what is the fascination?

    I would like to see companies make parts for the vintage decks, these were over built compared to today's standards. I like the vintage look. :)

    Cassette tape decks, what is the fascination?

    So true. I tested a buddy's Nakamichi on my Kenwood system and it sounded so much better than my KX-830, so much that i want to get a better tape deck. Cassette tapes sounded so clean and vibrant on the Nak, I was surprised on how good it was.
