CLASSIC JBL C36 VISCOUNT SPEAKER PAIR.

These floor standing speakers feature the legendary D130 15" woofer, 075 ring radiator compression driver, and N2400 crossover. The high efficiency of these speakers, makes them suitable for tube amplifiers, and SET amplifiers...although they still sound magnificent on a quality solid state amplifier.

The James B. Lansing C36 Viscount was designed by Alvin Lustig along with the C35 Fairfield, C36 Viscount, C37 Rhodes, and the famous C40 Harkness. These timeless mid-century modern designs date from the mid 1950's.

This pair is loaded with the 030 system with the classic D130 15" woofer, 075 ring radiator, and N2400 crossover. The woofers have been freshly reconed with the correct JBL cone kit by an authorized JBL service center. The crossovers have been rebuilt with high grade components and the cabinets have been rewired.

The cabinets have been expertly refinished by a wood craftsmen and look better than any I have seen. The aluminum legs are one off, machined castings.

Wow what a crazy cool setup.

Just goes to show how long Ive been out of the horn game. I had no idea something like that BMS 4592nd even existed. How amazing!

So does it have any internal Xover or are both drivers wide open? Thats an amazing freq response range. It doesnt appear to be available
anymore. Is there a new counterpart to it?

That was always the my biggest complaint of the 4430s. The lack of top end response. I considered putting my TAD 2001 drivers in there
to see how big a difference it would make. Some did so and said it was a great improvement.

And yeah I drove my 4430s with a single ended EL84 amp. For room level listening it did great. But if you wanna jam loud my god will they
eat all the power some 300wpc amps I used with em gave. And sound amazing doing so.

So what are the bass bins those P audio drivers are in? I remember P audio making some well received Coax drivers years ago.

Again super cool rig man!
