Patience folks - looks like carolax hasn't been on the site since Jan 6 -
Sometimes life is more important than a pair of speakers ...
2ch: WiiM Pro; Topping E30 II DAC; Oppo, Acurus RL-11, Acurus A200, JBL Dynamics Project - Offline: L212-TwinStack, VonSchweikert VR-4
7: TIVO, Oppo BDP103D, B&K, 2pr UREI 809A, TF600, JBL B460
Looks like they won't arrive until February anyway.
That's what my dealer told me.
I'm probably going to replace my 4365s with 708is. Need something simpler.
I didn't think they would be in stock and indeed they weren't, still aren't, and won't be for a few weeks. They'll replace a pair of LSR28P's and be used mostly for playback and multimedia editing and I'll be happy to pass along my impressions. The waiting, as the man said, is the hardest part.
Performance Audio says they haven't shipped from the factory and they didn't order any for stock; my pair will be a special order and won't arrive when the first production versions ship. Neither Sweetwater or B+H have them in their online catalog. Did see a JBL Synthesis post on Facebook about being able to purchase them through the Synthesis dealer channel, such as it is. So I'm waiting.
Tried to find out sensitivity and mounting hole information from JBL, but they were useless, as you'd expect from Haman, a company that values automotive infotainment system profits above all else.
ISE electronics fair in Amsterdam RAI starts today, I noticed Harman Professional, JBL Professional, BSS, AKG, DBX, QSC, Peavey, Meyer Sound and even the crazy ultra-fidelity MBL and Wisdom Audio on the exhibitor list, yay!
I got an invitation so I will surely take a look, I wonder if they will have something from the new LSR7xx series.
If you want to visit ISE be prepared to pay €80,- (yes, eighty euros). I can only guess is so high to keep 'Joe average' off and attract only professionals.

kits of amps speakers and Bss dsp are out at daleproaudio
Hi,
If such products are JBL Pro presentation, a sort of 'flag-ship' then I am staying in belief that in the next decade, it would be hardly to find a man who would believe that JBL name had been a symbol of high quality sound production and (to emphasize here) REproduction. Almost the same as had happened to today Altec-Lansing name etc

Interesting
i think JBL / Harman engineers have got to a very high standard in getting to their objectives
and know that even if you have a speaker that has excellent objective and subjective characteristics you still need to adapt it to your room
I do think this calibrated systems are top performers in their format factor
I also think that the M2 are a standard to beat in that format
Latest news is that retailers will get them in May.
Guess I have to wait a while.
