Because they have slanted eyes!
Hey, relax...I'm Japanese so I'm allowed to say that.:p
Like many of you, I have scoured the Lansing Heritage website and read with interest the past history of JBL.
However, today I stumbled on this site that discusses the Bill Thomas era. Perhaps I...
What I need are the thiele/small parameters to make a box for it. As I am planning on using them as midbass in a 4 way system I will probably be housing them in an enclosed box. How do you...
There was a lower line of speakers made by JBL in the 90's called the HP8-88 series.
I recently bought a pair of the 8" woofers for a project and would like to know the Thiele/Small parameters of...
One thing that people forget is the "era" gear sounds and works best with "era" components. The iconic Klipshorn (forget the model) that sat in the corner is a prime example of a speaker that never...
The best sound I ever heard was ELP 'Brain Salad Surgery' tour 1974!
It was a proprietary JBL system top to bottom including 3 consoles (with 3 mixers) all processing and a matched true quad...
I retired from the industry just before line arrays became the defacto standard. While I have never worked on one, I have heard many in great sounding rooms and outdoor concerts with some of the...
Now I can look cool while kayaking.... not that any of them have heard of JBL
Hey: "cool is a state of mind" which usually means only you think you look cool...
Not that it doesn't have it's place in acoustical design, but people who go that route have no idea what they are doing. More damping, especially thin layers do more to harm the sound than anything...
I am not sure about the quality of replacement diaphragms as I think they are after market only now. The 2445 was a dog of a driver. I used to own a whack of them for P.A. use and loved the...
If I had the Tannoy's, I would gladly trade for the 4350's.
You are really trading an inconvenience for an inferior inconvenience. It may take a number of years but, sooner or later the right...
The 4430-35 are rather unique to the studio monitor line as they are the only models that I can recall that are voiced differently--they lack the forward voicing renowned by JBL, The articulation...
The LE20 is hugely under rated because of it's falling off response above 15K. (actually falling off from around 10K) But, it does exactly what it's original designers intended... a seamless...
This is supposed to be educational :confused: ...waste of time.
3db is not twice as loud
A JBL only store would never fly, BUT certainly Harmon International has an elite list of products that could generate enough interest to carry a store.:) That would be too cool! :p
I enjoyed reading your 'not so long' post. You said what I have always suspected and articulated it well.
I knew them there 'audiophiles' was missing some brain parts!;)
Amazing how many "white cones" and "waffle grill covers" were inspired by the Century L100.
The 2405 and the 2105 are an excellent match. Look no farther than the 4315 studio monitor. Just cross them over high, 7.5K or better. The 2105 extends to 11K, even if not ideal in that range and...
Amazing how well this music stands up after 40 years. Amazing how good it sounds captured on a low level cam. Dark Side is surely one of the greatest performances created on this planet.
Side...
While the answer to that is a yes, I would argue the biggest difference is the band, type of music and HOW LOUD THEY PLAY!
Van Halen is notorious for bad sound because the guitar is louder in the...
Bryston IMO is absolutely one of the best for low end application. (but, I liked the sound of the old Harmon Kardon Citation 11's better on the top) Bryston 4B's can be had at a pretty reasonable...
4310 over achiever
4311 under achiever
To many these speakers are close to the same. Couldn't disagree more!
I love the unified coherent sound of the 4310's. With all their faults they...
Some Madame Butterfly @ 120db should do it!
sonofagun...do you know the origin of your name? Goes back to a passion of mine...;)
