After looking at all the various audio projects I once planned but will never get around to finishing, I’ve decided to do some autumn house cleaning. $100 takes everything below.

Several years ago I wanted to build some simple bass reflex or OB speaks using vintage drivers from the Jensen Duette series…P8 8” wide banders with Jensen RP-103 horn tweeters. These are the same drivers raved about on the JE Labs website (see link below). After some hunting, I finally tracked them down and promptly stored them in a box on the shelf just waiting for the day. Of course they’ve sat there ever since.

So, what we have here is:
-one pair of Jensen P8 8” drivers w/alnico magnets.
-one pair of Jensen RP-103 horn tweeters.
-one pair of Pyramid 2uf (beeswax?) caps to be used in series with the RP-103 tweeters.

I also have one (as in a single) Electro-Voice SP12B full range 12” driver that was purchased for yet another speaker project that was never brought to fruition. This has the massive cast frame and whizzer cone (see link below).

All of the above for $100. I’ll also throw in a second pair of Jensen RP-103 horn tweeters that need new diaphragms.

Here’s the link to the JE Labs page that talks about the Jensen drivers: http://members.myactv.net/~je245/vintagebudgetspks.htm

Here’s a link to an eBay auction for a pair of EV SP12B drivers exactly like the one I have: http://cgi.ebay.com/2-EV-SP-12-12-FULLRANGE-SPEAKERS-ELECTROVOICE-SP12_W0QQitemZ120334024676QQihZ002QQcategoryZ50597QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

I’m happy to send pics upon request, and will try to upload some here if I’m ever able to figure that process out.
