    Wonder what JBL is thinking? Very strange that they would sell JBL speakers in the US.

    Yeah, thanks. We knew that!

    Those would be your local NON_US dealers, wouldn't they??

    This topic has been beaten to DEATH in these forums -
    new JBL speakers with the look of the classic Studio Monitors of the 70s,
    offered for sale in the Asian market and not in the US market ...

    Many of us offered to buy some a few years back -
    when that did not happen, we went elsewhere ...
    (or to other brands)

    Now that they ARE for sale - what will support be like?
    Will replacement drivers be readily available?

    I don't see what the market for the 4365 will be now that the M2 is around...

    Hi POS,

    May be I am wrong, but 4365 has internal network, so can be used with single stereo amp.
    On the other side I have no idea abut M2 price, and the necessary networks, and number of amps,
    so 4365, may be is not so bad decision ( if 7.5k$ is available for the speakers pair).

    Regards
    Ivica

    Well, that would be each, not per pair... per the first post in this thread.

    Seemingly tying them to Synthesis dealers is an ... interesting sales channel decision
    (especially the 4312 model). Pro has M2 + 6 and now 7 series.
    15K/pair monitor type folks probably aren't hanging out at Guitar Center
    for that purpose anyway

    Must be expecting a pull from existing fans, vs. a push from marketing.
    I can hear the "let's make some available and see what happens"
    thought process... Guess we'll see how this unfolds. Interesting...

    I agree, the M2's complexity and looks scare off most sane people (it's my dream speaker of course!). These monitors becoming available in the US is fantastic news IMO, and it will be interesting to see if anybody actually buys them.

    4429 is studio monitor and has a competitive price,but S3900 is only a family product.i wish some people can compare them.

    Hi,

    That is my fault, I have understood "each PAIR", as on the figures , pairs are shown...
    ..so that means 15k$ per pair...., not to mention that on some other thread it is said
    that single driver 2269 is priced around 1.1k$, so I wonder how to reach to 15k$ for
    6 drivers+some other (polyvinyl ) parts such as horns, tubes, box,....

    If such philosophy would be applied to the car price, they would cost millions of billions of $ "EACH"

    regards

    I think I would prefer the restricted vertical dispersion of the 4365 in my listening room.
