Hi,

Its a disgrace, JBL want about �92 retail for a replacement 2412H-1
diaphragm.

I can buy a complete assembly for a lot less here:

http://www.thomann.de/gb/jbl_2412h_1treiber.htm


There are "aftermarket" ones available in North America such as this:

http://www.soundspeakerrepair.com/DWP_JBL_2413.asp



Are these worth considering? Is there any other reasonable alternative to a
JBL part, such as replaing the whole horn(s) with something else?





Cheers,


Gareth.

PA-D25 Diaphragm JBL 2412 �16.34

It's a 'third party' replacement. I gather the 2412 isn't a real JBL but a
bought in OEM part that's re-branded. You may also need some ferrofluid.

And yes, it's ridiculous that JBL don't sell the diaphragm themselves.

The OEM part is probably a rebadged part anyway. There's nothing remarkable
about them so I wouldn't hesitate to try something else.
