    Rubber surround

    The 1500FE's in my 4348's have rubber surround. Very practical, I wish the ME150h's in my 4344mkII's had it also.

    BTW,do you have any experience of comparing 4344MKI to 4344?

    Rubber surround is widely used in many speakers for many years,and really,rubber surround can last for a long long time.
    but for JBL,it is another thing.
    Foam surround is JBL signboard.
    and more,JBL has three his special skills,paper cone,foam surround and horns

    I think PASS 350.5 is a good choise for you,but in my opion, 350.5 is still lack of some powerful bass.
    Yes, I feel the same way. It is in fact getting better. For Pass Labs, I'm looking at the XA 160.5 or the XA 200.5.

    No ,i think it is too small,you need XA 350.5 at least.or you can try GRYPHON DIABLO.

    Several days before,i listened S4700 at local dealer for hours,it's very amazing,much easier to driver than 4365, more cleaner bass than 4348.
    So forget 4365,just enjoy your S4700

    Well, ok, but I really want to get a CLASS A amp. The 160.5 and 200.5 amps are not small amps! They are big in size.

    What is the price of the Gryphon? Probably overpriced...

    Cool, glad you like it.

    Oh,size means nothing
    No,i don't like Gryphon at all, just like the name of its Chinese Translation ,means it's so expensive that make people crazybut since many guys talk about it,so i suggest you to try it.
    It is also well known that Accuphase is very match with JBL

    haha size matters!

    Oh ok, there's no distribution here in the US as far as I know for Gryphon. Accuphase is good, but 3 times the price compared to the Japanese price. Way too expensive.

    Pass Labs FTW!

    Very nice looking gear!

    But I am so glad that my hearing isn't good enough to warrant such an expenditure.

    I think you'll find that Pass amps are not very well regarded on this site. I say buy what you like, but Pass gear is a damn hard sale around here.

    ... a generalization I've not seen warranted, nor one I personally subscribe to.
    I've always thought it would be fun to own a pair of older SA/1 monoblocks.

    A single Sa/3.9e should easily match the S4700 !!!
