djsteviec Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 We have a pair of twin 15" bass bins of which 3 of the drivers have blown. (they are very old). Originally they had JBL 2226HPL 15" 8ohm Low Frequency drivers in. (the new model of the same speaker is 2226H)These retail from SoundTech at £350 +vat. -Does anyone know if there is anywhere to get them from cheaper?-Can anyone recommed a good cheaper alternative to JBL? Thanks.Steve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RumbleO Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 I just :) d (to see if our subs have your drivers) and I found this on eBay. May be a solution (may be trouble!) OwenR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OwenR I did see that earlier actually, but can't really put second hand into the venue. They'll go mad if they blow up in a weeks time or something. Can anyone else suggest an alternative speaker? Do you think the following would be ok?http://cpc.farnell.com/precision-devices/p...equestid=837960 This is the original spechttp://www.jblpro.com/pub/components/2226.pdf Thanks,Steve.

Rich Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Get them reconed by Roy from Royal Loudspeakers. He's one hell of a craftsman and really know's his stuff, geuniune guy too. www.recones.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
