    JBL 4311 Speaker Insulation Mold?

    I just recently got a pair of JBL 4311 speakers off Marketplace for $50, the cabinets are really beat with a good bit of damage (a sizable chunk missing from one and a bit of warping on the other) but the drivers are pristine and they sound amazing. I took them apart the other day to see the...

    Crossover upgrades

I have a pair of Infinity Reference Two speakers and I've noticed one of the speakers is sounding extremely dull, like the tweeter isn't even working at all.

    ESS AMT 10b Woofer Recommendation.

    I have an old pair of ESS AMT 10b speakers that belonged to my dad. My dad used them all the time when I was a kid, but put them in the attic about a 20 years ago.

    KLH 6 tweeter question

    Just received a pair of KLH 6's, circa 1969 or so judging from the stamp on the woofer. These are the ones where I can remove the woofer and tweeter with screws. What they are connected to is in my signature. I previously had a pair of Bose 301's (Latest ones) connected to my receiver. I am...
