Hello All,
Cleaning out my garage to make room for a treadmill and a place to roll around on a swiss ball.
There are boxes of mostly JBL drivers that need to go. I may sell some along the way.
For entertainment I am planning a pair of 1 to 2 cubic foot speakers attached to the storage loft above.
There are more than a few options, the speakers likely will be 2-way with 12" woofers plus Compression Drivers / wave guides attached.
In the storage boxes there are 2204H, 2206H and 2217H (a 14 inch driver). I am leaning towards the 2204H's, they model a little lower in frequency response.
For the CD's there are several options, I am liking the 2453 SL mounted with the Progressive Transition 6-1/2" X 12" 90 X 50 wave guides.
Any thoughts or ideas?
Thanks DT

Thanks Rob,
At what frequency do you crossover to the JBL2453SL's.
I plan to use a Rane AC22 Crossover to adjust the crossover frequency to see what sounds good to my taste.

Hello DT
I cross them at 1.5K 24dB active crossover. They are in a 4 way so the driver below is a 2123 10". You should have no issue at all say 1K or a little lower if needed depending on the upper response of the 2204. I posted a measurement which shows the extension even on the 1010 you might get better loading on your waveguide. In case you don't have it I attached the driver PDF. Unfortunately we don't have an actual measurement on the LH site.

You can probably get a fair dollar for the 2217s. I use a pair of them along with the well regarded, but now unobtanium, QSC 17" x10" waveguide and Radian 650 CDs. The 2217s are very nice out to ~1kHz, but they don't go very deep without some help. I use a sealed cabinet and a generous shelf to raise the F3 to about 40Hz (I use a DSP XO). Even at "call the cops" volume the 2217s don't complain. But they are probably overkill for a garage speaker. Sell the 2217s and use either of the other two woofers.
