JBL EBS alignment?????


Wayne,
You have come up with "Pi alignments" for JBL (2226 and other JBL woofers), but for most of the Eminence models, you use EBS. What would EBS alignment for the JBL 2226 be??? And what are your reasons for not using them now, if it is useable at all???? I am thinking that the JBL 2226 has a stronger motor(control) than the Eminence and therefore a EBS alignment might be a interesting alternative. Maybe I am backwards on my thinking and not understanding some underlying reason for this not being feasable. Anyways, Maybe you can solve this mystery on this.
By the way Wayne, I placed order for KSN-1038A's from PE today, and supposedly it is in stock (Yahoooooo!). And to solve my other dilemma, I ordered qty (20) 56 ohm 10 watt resistors to get my 14 ohm that we discussed prior for R2. (4 - 56 ohm in parallel = 14 ohms/40 watt) (Yahoooooooo! again!!!) I am placing my belief that R2 is the one that really needs to handle the large wattage more than R1 which is in series with the horn. That and my (qty 10) 12 ufd/250v caps for my 2nd order BW 16 ohm/600hz . Have 3 projects lined up to go and girlfriends son is getting married this Saturday. When the weekend is over, it will be time to make up on my speaker projects. When I finish these projects, I will be able to do side by side comparison of Woofers: JBL 2226H and J/Eminence (15" 400 watt(109oz magnet) model unkn))/JBL 2418 on 2373 lens/Altec 802/806/807/808 on 511B or 811B lens and of course: Altec 288C(16 ohm "G" diaphram on 311-60 lens. When completed, I will do a full review along with the reviews of some audiophile friends who are very opinionated. I hope this info will be useful to those who don't know which speaker system to buy or build. Thanks, Sorry for long post. Will be back at work Wednesday. By inmates til then, Capt Ron
