Project Description:
JLB 135 Resurrection

Design Goals:
Putting a powered subwoofer back into action

Driver Selection:
Peerless by Tymphany

Enclosure Design:
JLB 135 Home theater speakers

Enclosure Assembly:
Needed to make an adapter board to fit new plate amp to enclosure.

Crossover Design:
Dayton Plate amplifier

Tips & Tricks:
Satellite speaker nearly an exact match, had to elongate holes to fit (drill press & file). Original speaker was shielded, hope that doesn’t become an issue.

Conclusion:
Not a big fan of powered subwoofers, so kept this simple. Original amp went out & couldn’t see scrapping the unit, too much stuff going to landfill as it is.

About the Designer:
