Brian Hot Rods his JBL JRX-115 Top Cabs (Horn Driver)

Here's the original message I got from Brady http://www.youtube.com/sleeperawaken36
Hey Brian,
You might remember that I mentioned some time ago, that a good upgrade for your JRX115 cabs, would be to replace the compression driver with a Selenium D210Ti. They happen to be on sale now, as they are moving to a new 2008 model. They are selling for $31 each, and they are a drop in for your JRX115 cabs.

I know your JRX115 cabs already sound good, but these will make them sound better, so I am just passing this tip along. Why? For a couple of reasons.

1) Your JRX cabs have a frequency response of 50Hz -12.5KHz +/- 3dB. The JRX115 cabs have always been known to have really good bottom end for a single 15" cab, but a little short on the top end. Dropping these in will change that to 50Hz - 20KHz +/- 3dB, giving you a LOT better top end, with less power to get it there.

2) The Selenium D210Ti is a better, cleaner sounding compression driver than the stock JBL compression driver in the JRX series as well. The JBL higher end compression drivers are a different story, but then they cost more than your speaker cabs & definitely mine...hehe (I would love to have some though :)

Anyway, I've got two of these on their way to me now. They are a nice upgrade for my cabs as well, at only $31 a piece. I do know your JRX115 cabs sound great as is, but thought I'd pass along the tip for a nice upgrade if you are interested :) I'll be doing a vid when I get mine in.

Hey, I've been getting a few new videos out lately, could you check them out? Hey, I'm still loving your vids :) Thanks :)

Brady

Stop smoking man. For your own good and my sanity tho I think the latter is too late.

@nickacil if you go on my page, i have two older videos, one of the high spl car system and the other of my pro audio gear...

[MasterDJRenn]

@nickacil Hahahahah dont know what i said that warranted that response, but yea, like you i have always been interested in audio and im 42 years old, not much younger than you....you seem to be more into the sonic quality where as im into pure SPL and sound reinforcement....and yes i too repair electronics, i built a Heathkit AA-1640 when I was 10 years old...still have it to this day....

@MasterDJRenn : Sir, I don't mean to get into a show down with you. I'm just conversing out of interest to my hobby. Just a hobby I had since I was 12 years old! I'm 49, and still love the art of HI-FI accuracy especially if I do all of the repairs and mods myself.

I have worked in TV and used stereo stores repairing.

Now, if I must bring out the artillery, there is no turning back.

[nickacil]

@MasterDJRenn : What brands are the speakers?

[MasterDJRenn]

@nickacil I have mine 4 way, subs 25hz-90hz, bass/mid 90hz-2.5K, mid/high 2.5khz-10khz, high 10khz-20khz....

[nickacil]

@MasterDJRenn : The JBL 2225 is still a midrange woofer even though it goes to 30HZ.
