Vintage Jensen DIY open baffle towers

Wolfwood

Wolfwood

In the Valley of the Sun
Been working on these for the last month.

Cabinet and baffles made from 3/4 inch MDF.

Each tower has -
2 H223f Coaxial units
1 RP 103b Horn
1 P8UM Midrange
1 C12NF Low Range Woofer in cabinet.

Sorry, lighting is crap in listening space.

The horn/midrange/cabinet woofer are very quiet through their original crossovers. I recently purchased a non-tarred a645 crossover in hopes of reverse engineering the original crossover design to update with modern capacitor and inducter.

The Jensen Coaxials sound absolutely amazing on their own though. Something about this baffle really lets the deep bass come out. The horns on the coaxials don't reach over 18k hz so they dont sparkle at the tip top. But what range they do cover, they do it effortlessly and without cracking. Ever!

The coaxials are lacking in the midrange department. Was hoping the 8 inch mid-frequency drivers could help with that. We'll see once I get the new crossovers built. :)

Considering the price of Jensen Tri-axials, I think I'll be left wanting in the midrange for now.
