JBL 4628B Professional speakers , how can I test them?
Just pick up a clean pair for fun and profit . Can I just hook a guitar jack into receiver headphones out and plug into one speaker to test them? I only know one person in a band and he has not gotten back to me yet? Thanks. D

And it accepts a two-conductor "TS" (tip/sleeve) type phone plug, right?
If so, you should just need to solder a 1/4 inch two conductor phone plug onto the "plus" ( via the plug's 'tip' -- the center connector) and and "minus" (via the plug's 'sleeve' -- the outer conductor) wires of a speaker cable.
Or use a coupla clip leads.
Or buy one.
I always keep a few in stock
The TRS 1/4 inch phone plug can also be used for balanced line-level connections ("+" and "-" hot signals and a ground)... not really used for speakers per se.
Also, on the bright side, the JBLs oughta be sensitive enough to play fairly well even driven from a headphone jack
EDIT: mmm... those look like tonnes of fun.

Don't flip 'em -- hook 'em to a nice single-ended 2A3 or 300B vacuum tube amplifier and...well... it oughta be pretty nice.

It will probably work, actually.
I'd offer to beta-test it here (with clipleads!) but I don't really have time this morning due to other obligations, unfortunately.
Clipleads are wonderful things!
Everyone should have a bag full!
Inquiring minds want to know.
After inspecting, I will work on figuring out how to hook up correctly without damaging. Thanks. D

Is there something under that piece of blue painter's tape?
If there is, I'd use that, otherwise, I'd try pluggin' in to that (apparently) "8 ohm low frequency input" and see if you only 'excite' the woofas (which is presumably what'll happen).
Seems like they 'want to be' biamplified... which is certainly an option to try 'em out!
