JBL 2268HPL as opossed to JBL2242H

Xciterking · 4th June 2006, 06:48 AM

Anybody know anything about these two speakers who might help with the difference? JBL 2268HPL or JBL 2242H ?

djk · 6th June 2006, 05:42 AM

I haven't heard the 2268.

JBL does not publish a complete data sheet on this woofer as they do not sell it other than as a part of a complete syatem in a cabinet.

However, according to JBL it does not have as much maximum output as the 2242, and is less efficient (about 2dB).

While both are rated at 800W, the 2268 has only a 3" coil vs the 2242 with a 4" coil.

I was never told about it only having a 3" coil. Good thing I canceled the order today. They put the 2268 in these boxes

And you still don't have complete data, and if you believe that spec for x-max I have a bridge for sale....

Mikey p · 6th June 2006, 09:29 PM

The data is what is available from JBL. If you're selling a bridge, how did you get stuck with it in the first place?

djk · 6th June 2006, 10:53 PM

That was a joke, no one actually owns the bridge they are offering to sell you.

The data is obviously wrong.

I'm aware you were joking. I was joking back at you. As for data accuracy, whoever is interested can verify it with JBL support. I'll stick with my Adire products.

OK, well I bought two of these today, hope it was a good choice?

"I'm aware you were joking"

Never can tell, the joke is kind of specific to the US.
