Undoubtedly. It's fourteen more than I have. :)

24 more than needed

You need to:

Reinforce the cabs internally - anywhere you can feel cabinet talk when they're playing put a strut in. And chuck away the fiberglass wadding.
Solder all push connector connections, rear terminals, speaker and crossover.
Dampen the metal port tube so it doesn't ring anymore - I used bike inner tube.
Attend to any driver issues.

Do all this and they're twice the speaker.

Lent to my parents, I still often hear the pair I did. They replaced Bariks in their system, the Bariks now in the conservatory wringing out the wee wee. Hung off the end of a good amp these are outstanding speakers.

Well, these came in cheap enough...about what one of the drivers is worth. Hope someone from on here was the lucky winner, not someone who's just going to part them out...

My old Quad 405 power amp is currently at a bargain price on eBay:

If you're interested in audio recording and editing, I've also put my trusty old E-MU 404 USB interface up for sale - another bargain right now. Works very nicely as a DAC by the way:

Man, I wish I could get my hands on those jbl's... a bargain for the lucky...

A few weeks ago I may well have snaffled these, but then I bought my little el84 amp, and that'll do me. :)

My goodness these are stunning :stalks:
I don't think I would have to bother with the music , I would just sit and stare at those big blue VU meters :D

:thumbsup:

The music would be an unwanted distraction! :D

Brian , You need the music to make the meters move :D

I'd disconnect the speaker cables. :thumbsup:

Not on eBay, wonder how well it works:

https://www.aldi.co.uk/en/specialbuy...mp3-converter/

The one thing that all these budget player converters forget to mention (apart from the fact they're pretty carp. is that your 12 track album becomes a two track CD (that'll be sides 1 & 2 then...) :doh:

Relisted. wonder how much it'll fetch this time...

There is software smart enough to identify a gap between tracks such as VinylStudio which is what I've used in the past.

Won't stop it sounding crap though!

I used to use something that came with my Xitel Inport. but it doesn't work under Win 8+ or even vista for all I know as I ran XP over newer machines until the death.. It was quite good at sorting the spaces between tracks, but often got it wrong or almost right and then it could take forever to get it all sorted.

A good editor is Audacity but I have found it has a steep learning curve (for me ) that I've never really got to grips with.

Exactly why I detest and eschew VU meters on power amps: uninformative, probably inaccurate and downright distracting. Frequency spectrum bargraphs are even worse! :sofa:
