There is a set of Type E within driving distance. Having previously owned A/iii (for which I no longer have room), I'd like to have a nice set of Snells again. These are clearly not the original woofers. Can anyone identify them. My thought is that they are not appropriate Vifa drivers, nor...

Hey everyone, I have browsed this website for many years, but this is my first post. I recently got some Snell E II speakers and one woofer and one tweeter have been replaced. While the ohms are correct on these replacements (I tested the original tweeter with a multimeter), I feel like they're...

Hi all, I used to listen to my stereo back in the 70's & 80's before kids and work got in the way. Now fully committed to retirement. Discovered Tidal and the bug has been reignited. Sorting out old broken stuff: - Apt Holman preamp - Snell JIII's - Symdex Sigmas Surviving from last century...

Hey all, I just purchased a pair of Snell J2 speakers with audio note tweeters that I'm very pleased with. They sound great for vinyl. Right now I am powering them with my dad's Insignia NSR2000 receiver. I'm looking to upgrade my receiver and eyeing a Luxman L-80v or L-85v integrated...

Hi everyone, I've been upgrading my home listening setup as I've enjoyed listening to vinyl more and more during the pandemic. I recently acquired a great sounding pair of Snell J2 speakers. I am looking to get a nice vintage Integrated power amplifier to pair with them. I have the...

EDIT: I don't have to buy it all, I can just buy some A friend of mine has some inherited audiophile gear in storage; he's told me I can make an offer. They just kinda want it gone but don't want to put in the effort to find a buyer (no rush). I know that I'm going to get a few things, but...

As I don't see too much mention of this speaker around here, or on the web in general, I thought I'd go ahead and create a post dedicated to the Snell Type M if for no other reason than to help develop awareness of this little speaker. I was inspired to do so when once again I recently found...

Hi all. Long time viewer first time poster. came across these Snell Type C 3 the other day. The foams look good and overall in pretty solid condition. I can get them for $250ish if I pick them up maybe less. $300ish for them delivered. that a good price? My room ain’t huge (12x12) so I don’t...

Need another set of speakers like I need a hole in my head - but whatever. If I don't keep, my buddy is ready to take them. Have been setting for awhile - didn't even test the lower bass modules as the seller says they are not right. Maybe a refoam or recone - either way, I will get them...

I purchased these Snell Type Ai speakers yesterday for only 225. Has to be one of the better deals I've ever gotten. The surrounds in the woofers are completely gone. I decided to buy new Snell appropriate woofers from Atomic HiFi. Cost a pretty penny but I live locally and can save on shipping...

Found these and inspected one of them thinking the other one was good... Much to my dismay when I opened the other the crossover was there but not the drivers. Anyone have some spares or an extra speaker they could spare/trade/sell?

https://grandrapids.craigslist.org/ele/d/belmont-snell-j4-vintage-speakers/6928448750.html Just curious about these if they are any good. I had somebody tell me the older Snell models were nice.....for $225 this sounds like a good deal maybe?

I've been enjoying my own Snell Type D's for a while now, and just yesterday a good friend was amazed by them and asked for help finding some new gear. On a whim I opened CraigsList and searched "Snell", and I was shocked to see a pair of Type D's for sale 20 minutes away for $500. Long story...

Boy oh boy am I in trouble... I borrowed a pair of Snell Type C/iv from a neighbor about a month ago. He wasn't using them and my plan was to audition them and then perhaps offer to buy them. They live in a nice big room in my place and have plenty of space to do their thing. I don't have a lot...

Hi all, new to the forum... I recently threw together a new setup, a carver c-4000 into a carver m1.5t (1200w RMS) into some 80's Snell series III type a speakers. I listen to a lot of classical music, and today was listening to Stravinsky's Rite of Spring. (volume on around 5/12 on power amp)...

In doing this project I couldn't find any real picture guides so I thought I'd make one. My intention is to show how easy this is to do - if you have Snell speakers with cracked tweeter doping, don't worry! It's very easy to fix as I'll explain. Now, I haven't taken measurements and I'm not...

I would like to replace the electrolytics in my Jiis because they are around 30 years old. What kind of caps should i be using in these speakers? here are the values of the caps and resistors in my JII crossovers. JII crossover1 100V 100UF non polar 4mfd50v 8mfd50v 8mfd50v 2mfd50v 16mfd50v...

I Have 2 Snell JII speakers im looking to rebuild the crossovers to bring them back up to spec. I don't know what kind of caps to use and what type of resistors would work best. JII crossover1 100V 100UF non polar 4mfd50v 8mfd50v 8mfd50v 2mfd50v 16mfd50v 16mfd50v 04-2030 D. A. 3.0J 100v MMM M.I...

Anybody have experience recapping a snell Jii crossover. Ive seen threads where people mention them but I haven't read any details about doing them. I feel like its time to redo them to get better performance. any ideas on what will make this a worthwhile upgrade
