JBL 15" info?

mrskinny · 1st June 2004, 03:25 AM

Bought this JBL woofer recently. A 15", model number ME150H. Anyone have any information about it? Google search only turned up 2 hits. Was thinking of making a sub with it.

Taken from some search on www.lansingheritage.org forums

Fs = 38 Hz
Qms = 6.4
Vas = 130.3 liters
Cms = 0.116 mm/N
Mms = 0.153 kg
Rms = 5.708 mohms
Xmax = ?
Xmech = ?
P-Dia = 337.5 mm
Sd = 0.089 sq.m
Vd = ?
Qes = 0.35
Re = 5.6 ohms
Le = 1.12 mH
Z = 6.72 ohms
BL = 24.2 N/A
Pe = ?
Qts = 0.33
no = 1.969 %
1-W SPL = 95.09 dB
2.83-V SPL = 96.64 dB

Poke around www.partsexpress.com , I believe I saw it on there. You might be able to find more T/S parameters and whatnot.

The Parts Express JBL was a subwoofer not this one.

The 150H was used in the S3100 speakers and 4344 Mk2
speakers. It was not sold separately

Quite expensive, and sold mostly in Asia.

The specs from Andreas are the same as I have found.
Apparently have overdamped bass, so not very strong but
lots of control. Not really a good sub driver. You could equalize
to bring up the lower frequencies, but there isn't really too much
excursion

I got mine cheap from American Science and Surplus.
What a deal!!! Sadly, they are out of these surplus beauties.

Do you have a supplier for these?

Sorry, but I have no supplier for these. I bought this from a surplus store and this was the only one they had.They were selling it for $19.99,and I thought it was too good to pass up.
