I have these JBL speakers and I'd like some help identifying what model they are. I've thought about having the crossovers rebuilt and the cabinets gone over. The grilles are still mostly all there and look pretty cool. IMG-3216 hosted at ImgBB IMG-3217 hosted at ImgBB IMG-3218 hosted at ImgBB
JBL Apollo S51 ~1970 3-way. Same driver complement as Sovereign II for the year, but oiled walnut and that wrapped-around grille. JBL Apollo specifications
Thanks a bunch! I think I'll take the cabinets to our furniture refinishing people and maybe have the crossovers re-capped. It looks like the surrounds on the woofers are the folded paper so I'm hoping they're still OK.
I don’t know how they have been treated, or where stored, but those surrounds age pretty well. If they are gone you might need a complete reconing.
The woofer is the D130 and the tweeter is the venerable 075. Normally, seeing the N1200, that would indicate being paired with the LE175DLH midrange but the plastic lens on these may indicate a larger driver. You might want to pull one of the mids just to see what you've got, or look through the back via the crossover openings. It's sort of a surprising load for that cabinet in that the D130, while one of my favorite speakers having had one in my home for now over 65-years, is VERY short on bass output. While maybe perfect for cello, it won't offer much impact with modern music. I doubt you'll see much improvement in recapping the crossovers, especially once you go inside one and see how they're built!! Here's inside the N1200 (the N7000, if that's the other one you have, is even simpler):
