Publishing this project has been held over for a variety of reasons but it is now appropriate to post what happened. That is before we get too old to remember and our hard drives and pc's become obsolete!
The decision to undertake this project was initially discussed in August/September 2006.
In case you are wondering why upgrade a stock 3145 network?
I wanted to measure, study and audition the stock network and hence what other JBL 4345 owners experience.
At the time Clark was very interested in upgrading his newly acquired 4345 monitors to match the purity of the rest of his contemporary audio system. It was a matter of timing and this is how the opportunity for the project came about.
The plan is to meet up with Clark in September this year to see how it all worked out.
