VTypeV4 Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 Pulled one of these out of those W-Bins I've 'adopted'.. It seems to be in good working order and looks massively chunky although it would probably be a bit cruel to put it back into that bin. Maybe the 2225 JBL I have would be better suited..

lozbass Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 Brings back memories - highest end of the celestion range in the mid-late '70s I think. I had one in a similar bin. There were a couple of power ratings on the 15 - I think yours is the higher Quote
VTypeV4 Posted May 17, 2015 Author Posted May 17, 2015 Did they ever do T/S specs for these? I did a search but didn't find anything.. I was wondering how one would react in a reasonably small vented box tuned to around 50 Hz but without data, I can't model it.. As above, I removed it from an old horn so I'm kinda guessing it will have a high motor strength as well suitable compliance for use in a small enclosure. That is assuming it was appropriately specified in the first place. Lots of assumptions and educated guesses here but if anyone has experience and / or data, please share as it would be appreciated.

bartelby Posted May 17, 2015 Posted May 17, 2015 Email Celestion. They're pretty good with info Quote
tonewheels Posted May 18, 2015 Posted May 18, 2015 I had a Richard Allan cab with two these about 1983. Terrible thing. Totally untuned. I managed to find the T/S parameters and built a 1x15 cab to partner a Trace 410 and AH500X. Still not good. Saw sense and went back to an SVT and 8x10. Quote
VTypeV4 Posted May 18, 2015 Author Posted May 18, 2015 Awaiting a response from Dr Decibel at Celestion. He's been very helpful in the past. Quote
