I’m not sure if I should put this here, film yak or the afterlife but I’ll try here. So unfortunately due to certain circumstances our sister theater closed down earlier this year. I was allowed in by the owner to scavenge some equipment that was left over. I picked up a couple amps, some EV TS8-2 surround speakers and the best grab I’ve ever had. A couple of JBL 4645B subwoofers. One was perfectly fine the other I saw sitting out by the dumpster with its cone smashed in. Knowing I could re-come it, I swiped it up. As of now. I finally got the re-cone finished. Tonight I was fixing to reinstall the driver and noticed something laying at the bottom of the cabinet. One was a piece of paper towel, a wrapper from a butterscotch candy, and this movie ticket. It was dated for 1999 for the movie American Beauty. From the defunct movie theater chain, Loews Cineplex Entertainment. I found it strange how this ended up inside the subwoofer. Given the design of the 4645b the only way it could have gone through the ports at the front. However the ports angle up towards the driver internally. So the only way I could think it got in there was if the woofer was running hard enough to suck it in through one of the ports. Anyway I found this interesting. 6EA0EABC-199C-435D-B4B8-099D011DD2ED.jpg 3C70F023-EC2C-406C-BF67-5689419FF65E.jpg

It's always cool to find the old ticket stubs.... As Steve said, the leaf blower cleaning guys are the culprits...Not to mention the dust they send to clog up the screen perfs. I had a single screen in Central Nevada that had several dozen ticket stubs, which the owner picked up and had framed to hang in the lobby.

Nice speaker. I use two on the floor behind the screen. Big sound in a small room.

My "theater room" (also my living room) is about 10' x 18' at most. The sub doubles as my center channel shelf. Connected to a bridged QSC DCA 1622. It rules.
And your neighbors probably think it's just a car with a jackhammer sub driving by. Repeatedly.
