oh - there a pair of the old JBL EON 15s

Is there any sound coming from the high frequency horn? According to jblpro.com, the HF components are:

"1" Pure Titanium Diaphragm Compression
Driver with Patented Diamond Surround", and

"90° x 60° Controlled Directivity Horn Provides Flat Power Response".

The pdf I found here:

http://www.jblpro.com/pub/mi/eon15.pdf

also states:

"HF Driver & Horn:

Diaphragm Diameter: 44 mm (1 3/4 in)
Power Handling: 50 Watts
Dispersion Angle (H x V): 90° x 60°"

Notice the contradiction on the diaphragm size - is it 1" or 1 3/4"?

Anyway, the jblpro site also provided this information:

UK and Eire:
HARMAN PRO UK
Cranbourne House
Cranbourne Road
Potters Bar

They should be able to help. If the tweeter still tweets, and the damage is merely cosmetic, perhaps one of your shop teachers could help (?)

thanks - So you think i should go direct to JBL

- and no it doesnt tweet at all!!!

theres a scratch in the metel suround right down the horn and then the wire cover is torn - god knows how deep it went - the drum kit was fairly bent!!

I wonder if the 1" part is the exit hole size for the driver and the diaphragm is actually 1 3/4" ?
Hope you are able to repair.
