    Comments on 4365!

    Hi, JBL experts
    I did some study on 4365 recently,i found it may be a very nice choise!
    To my surprise, it uses 4' 476Mg compression driver as HF!and more,it uses cotton surroud instead of rubber surrond as 4338/4348 9800 do.
    I think rubber surrond is very hard to push and control,and its sound is not so nature as foam and cotton surrond,(BTW i don't like rubber surrond at all.)
    I appriciate your review.

    From PM's I've received it seems that there are several forum members who are extremely interested in buying these loudspeakers. They're at the top of my list as well.

    Rumor has it that the 1501FE came out so well there might be an alnico version someday. Not that I personally care, I'd be perfectly happy with it as is.

    It has been stated that the 476Mg is very close in sonic performance to the 476Be and both are "light years" better than their aluminum or titanium predecessors.

    I personally prefer the size of the 4338 horn. Too bad 4338 owners can't upgrade the 435AL to a 476Mg and the 1500FE to a 1501FE. That could be fun. I just can't get out of the JBL of the forties through eighties when one could do these things at will can I?

    Thanks for your input
    Sono-core\accodin-pleats,1501FE seems a big improvment of 1500FE.
    With the same 4' 476Mg,the H4365 horn size is even bigger than 9900,i'd rather believe that it's a improvment of 9900 under cost control.
    With 9900's relatively mild performance,4365 may supply you more strenth and power.
    I'm curious about 1501AL\476Be\045Be combination,maybe it's 9900SE
    BTW,i'm curious about your jbl shopping list also

    Yep, it would be nice to have a contemporary set of Big Blues!
    Where can we audition them and buy a pair?

    Aesthetically, those are my idea of a speaker. Must be whatever turned me on in the formative years, but they speak of power, solidity, and performance/party!

    I know what you mean... though for some reason they just don't do it for me. To me they just say poser. I know they are likely very good performers, but they are not the 43XXs they pretend to be. They are home speakers that are trying to look butch.

    As far as the formative years bit, these are what did it for me at an early age.

    Oh, bloody hell!

    So the L300 was a poser and the 4333 was the real deal?

    I view these things just like I view every JBL fifteen-inch three-way. Even the S4800 was a real JBL fifteen-inch three-way.
