why does JBL 4365 only rank 10th in Japanese eyes?

[bubbleboy76]

The components in the 4365 were top shelf and absolutely worth owning.

The S4700, as a system, ended up being more musical.

4313B, you seem to have some inside information, so I have a question to you. The 1501fe driver in the 4365 was considered to be so succesful due to the cloth surround, so it now comes cloth surround versions of the 1500al, right? In the new top model k2.

Maybe 4365 is to good for its price...

Good to know. Thanks.

[Dave_72]

More musical?means more suitable for home use?
I think 4365 has the capability to challenge 9900

You heard what the man said. The S4700s rule!

Very good question
I like JBL foam and cloth surround so much that i can not accept rubber surround in 4338\4348\1400 totally,
Many JBL lovers think that foam surround is magic key of JBL
Fortunately JBL seems to realize this and use cloth surround again,
Maybe foam surround again

I believe the S4700s and K2 S9900s use the cloth surround.

S4700 is a wonderful speaker, but I could not afford that one.

How many hours should I expect until my 4365 are played in?

Big difference before and after? I actually never bought a new speaker before.

Regardless of what is said here, I would be shocked if you didn't like them. You must be very excited.

Couple of days if you have them playing all the time. I woulden't worry about it, you will forget how it sounded when they are new compared to later on. Play tunes with funky bass and some horns blowing.

What gear are you using?

Marantz AV7005 preamp.
Hypex nCore monoblocks (1,2kw in 4ohm)
Stewart Firehawk 2,35:1 screen
Sim2 D80e projector

I will probably add a good dac and a good 2 channel preamp with HT-passthrough later on.
