New JBL 2235H in the house

jblmar · 25th July 2008, 02:46 PM

Picked up a pair of JBL 2235H yesterday. JBL Pro had a few pair available of their latest production run.
I plan to use them for sub woofer service at a future date. For now, I'll replace the 2225H with the 2235H in my 4507 cabinets.

The 2235H is supplied with a thin, rubber gasket. Not sure I care too much for that. It would appear that the rubber will 'melt' over time and fuse the woofer to the baffle making it difficult to remove the woofer. I think I'll stay with the cork gaskets.
Anyone have experience with the rubber gaskets?

Same problem, yeah. The rubber bonds to the cabinet.

But it's only a mess when you take it apart.

It worked well.
Don't know how it will hold up in the long run, but it was easy to install.
I have the cork type if needed.

It was easy to install. Nicer looking than the cork type.

where did you get them? i'm looking for some too!

From JBL.
I bought 20 in case I need them in the future.

The rubber gasket makes for a neater look, but I like the cork gaskets more. Cork appears to offer a better seal.
