JBL 4410A

[jazzmans]

I was just given a pair of these, (jbl 4410A) one woofer is missing, tweeters are pushed in, and the existing 127h-1 woofer needs a refoam, and on at least one, the midrange rear enclosure has become unattached, so I'll have to figure out how to reattach it.

I'd like to get them up and running again, since they appear to be the predecessors to the L100 series, if it isn't too expensive.

What are my options, aftermarket woofers? different tweeters? find a 127h-1 woofer?

TIA...

pics to follow soon.

Purty crossover

note for reassembly; black line wire was connected to negative.

I assume you mean successors, not predecessors, since they are obviously newer than the L100/4310 (unless you're thinking of the Century Gold that came out in the 1990s, and AFAIK that was never referred to as the L100).

For the tweeter diaphragms, you can find inexpensive Chinese clones available on eBay for not much money (at least you could last time I checked a while back*). It'd probably be cheaper (and much easier) to find a single correct woofer than to try to find a pair of good quality third-party woofers that will work properly with this crossover and enclosure.

*ETA: Just checked, you still can. But be prepared to wait several weeks for delivery from the Far East unless you want to pay a premium for a US seller. Amazon has them as well.

I know nothing at all about jbl speakers, except what I've gleaned from threads here.

any and all information is welcome.

by diaphrams, you mean new titanium domes? could you link me something please?

Oddly, your pics aren't showing for me now (they did before), but no matter. To avoid getting this thread moved to D&S, rather than my adding a link, just search eBay for jbl 4410 and jbl 035ti (eBay's search is really F'd up and not all hits are showing even though they should). If you sort by price low-high, the first few hits for each search should all be the correct diaphragm, assuming yours have the 035Ti tweeter. Read the description for each, don't assume that the search results are correct.

ETA: looks like those are some awesome speakers. I'd say it's worth the effort to get the correct woofers.

Isn't hjames someone who knows a lot about JBL gear?
Might PM her if she is who I'm thinking of.

I can't see the pictures.

Regarding the tweeter diaphragms, you may be able to get away with removing them and carefully popping them back out from the back with judicious pressure with a finger.

I do see there are currently a couple of woofers on eBay.
