    KLH Model One & Janszen Model 130 (Recap/Restoration Help)

    Hello AK, This has been discussed before by other members in similar situations, but I felt that due to the rarity of these speakers and the number of differences between varying serial numbers, a separate post might better help others in the future. BACKGROUND: *Feel free to skip if you’re...

    Help with Bozak B-302a Century modded with JansZen 65 Electrostats? Thoughts on how to proceed?

    Hello - I'm a longtime reader, but this is my very first post... please bare with me as I'm a beginner. I just picked up a pair of what I believe to be Bozak B-302a's that have been modified - the original mid driver and tweeters had been removed, and replaced with a JansZen 65 in each of the...

    Speakers speakers and more speakers.

    Over the past couple of weeks I've had very good luck with speakers. First off, I found a pair of Realistic Mach ones, gave 'em a shot ($40, couldn't say no) and they were alright. Party speakers for sure. Glad to have 'em in my collection. Second, I grabbed a pair of Janszen Z2- CF, my first...

    Scored some Janszen 1-30's

    Just picked these up today. Unfortunately they came untested, so I was a bit stressed out by the time I was hooking them up. Fortunately one fired right up and sounds wonderful (my first experience with electrostatics). The other makes no sound when attached and plugged in. Wondering where I...

    Help identifying used JansZen Dynamic Speakers

    I bought a couple of used JansZen Dynamic speakers at an estate sale recently. I didn't know much about JansZen, but I did know that they have a pretty good name and given the current speakers I am using, it wouldn't take much for an upgrade. I did not get a chance to look them over before...

    Latest Acquisition -- Janszen Z-600s

    A user on one of my Facebook stereo forums was selling his father's Janszens. They had not been used for at least a decade and he couldn't guarantee they were still operational but I decided to take a chance. Getting them to my 3rd floor apartment took some effort: they made them heavy in the...

    Vintage Janszen Z-600 Refurbish Job

    I've been refurbishing some speakers the last few months, including my old Paisley AE500, Polk Audio A100, and most recently Janszen Z600 (pictured). The Polk Audio and Janszen were given to me free of charge. One question I had was, I noticed the driver on one was breaking up a bit...

    How to test individual electrostatic speaker panels

    I'm not sure which forum is best for this question. Thought I'd give the DIY group a shot. I came across three Janszen electrostatic panels and would like to test to see if they are in working order. Does anyone know how best to test these? Should good panels rear a certain resistance? Thanks-
