[Bernard Wolf]

Well I certainly have never seen these but then again, I have never seen whatever the hell it is that you are using in your avatar either :blink:... this could be another thread, but what are you doing to yourself there?

This dudes got the ultra big Jbl 2392 horns with the 3 inch drivers 2490hAll I have to say is "Why?" :p


What am I doing to myself........?????

You mean behind closed doorsThat looks scary... I think some people have been looking at too many Cat in the Hat books... :p

[JBLGUY]

Well if your scared....turn on the lights....and get your Teddy .....lol


Why does this scare you ?

[JBLGUY]

Why....because big horns sound better than little horns....period:applaud: :blink:

[4313B]

Why does this scare you ?It's a lot of really big stuff pointing down, presumably, at someone's head. :eek:

Why....because big horns sound better than little horns....period:applaud: :blink:Oh... I thought the answer was "because". ;)

[JBLGUY]

Never get a boy to do a man's job.

[4313B]

Alrighty then! :p

When I look at this additional JBL gear around in your room I have to ask myself again:

Why do we JBL nuts have this constrained longing to collect more and more JBL gear?

This is not normal, but what is it? :p

[Zilch]

The psychology of relentless collecting is about forestalling death.

The particular attraction of JBL is that it is itself a living legacy.

And we like it....

and who is this guy with the 2392's ? Someone from Waterloo ?

[JBLGUY]

Hi BernardThe cabinet is just a JBL 4719X with a couple of 2241H's in it. I supplement them with two Paradigm Servo 15's. I have to turn the gain up on them about 9 db to get them matched with the horns

The photo is from a guy in the USA. He has those big horns and a couple of smaller one's on the wall behind the big 2392's. I don't know the fellow but that pic is from the Athen Audiophile Site. This site is very interesting if you haven't been on it.

Here is a link.

How about this Mutha

[paragon]

Is this the 30W from EV ?

Eckhard

[JBLGUY]

Yes it is 30W. I have two of these. Only one is being used right now. The other one isn't mounted in anything.

[paragon]

Sound must be amazing. You have to protect him (childrens fingers).:D
Is there someone who ever reconed this monster ?

Eckhard

[JBLGUY]

I believe it's still original. No little kids here so it's pretty safe.

It's a fun toy. I have seperate gains for it....so playing with it is pretty easy from my chair

[franz]

Hi everybody!

that setup on the first pic with the big horns was Dan Bellitys (living in France) some time ago. He had an all digital 5 Way setup AFAIK.
Meanwhile has has changed to a GOTO setup which is even much more thrilling IMHO !!!!!!!!!
Not to disregard JBL in the home but this is just another league. AFAIK Dan is now distributing the ultra pricy GOTo units in Europe.
Look at this !! and have fun!

GOTO (and AER) are also supplying bass compression drivers costing a fortune. The real dudes say its heaven to hear these on a suitable LF horn!

Posts to: Will arrange for local pickup only (no postage).

JBL's top of the range 2 way cinema system with a sound as staggering as its retail replacement price. Each side compises 1 x dual 15" cabinet fitted with 16ohm 2226 LF drivers and a huge HF horn fitted with a 2446 driver. Overall weight: just under 200kg (no postage available on this one!) THX approved, of course. Designed for bi-amplified applications where an extenal electronic crossover or cinema processor is used in conjunction with seperate amplifiers for the high and low frequency sections. These are the speakers chosen when nothing but the very best in full range systems will suffice. They deliver uniform frequency response throughout the listening area with high sound pressure levels. System is brand new, unused. I think I can safely say that if you own a cinema, you will NEVER get an oportunity like this again.

For your info only - I have no relationship with the seller.
