  I just repaired two JBL 128H Woofers on my set of Jubal L-65s. I used the Foam Edge Kit I obtained recently from Simply Speakers. These loudspeakers are extremely important and precious to me. I've owned them since the mid 1970s and they are truly my "EARS."  The woofers had been "re-foamed" in the late 1990s by a professional repair facility. Recently I discovered that both woofers needed their foam edges to be replaced again due to the onset of deterioration. I owned and engineered a professional Multi-Track Analog studio in Philadelphia which sported JBL Studio Monitors in all its "live" and control rooms. The L-65 speaker system I own was always used in my residence. They serving as the perfect pair of "test" speakers outside of the studio environment. The foam edge repair restored these woofers to perfection! I am thrilled to have my "ears" back at 100%. Thank you Simply Speakers for the terrific video, which I watched several times before making the repair to both woofers last night. Messy? You bet! But worth every bit of cleanup to have my Jubal L-65s singing again! Deeply appreciated!! Andy Kahn

  Most thorough and well explained instructional video I've ever seen, every detail covered. I'll be soon refoaming a pair of 128H's just like these with confidence.

  Ordered a kit from Simply Speakers for my JBL LX 44s. I live in Arizona and the delivery of the kit from Florida was ridiculously fast and free. I spent a lot of time cleaning the old foam but it was worth it. The new foam parts fit like a glove. Everything went just like SS said it would. I am so happy with the results that I decided to write this review. Thank you Simply Speakers for saving my JBL LX 44s. Just listened to some Zeppelin, Steppenwolf,  Allman Brothers and James Taylor and wow just wow. Now I know why so many people are into these old AMERICAN made quality built speakers. Repairing them reminded me of working on an old classic muscle car. Quality.
