    JBL 200 XPL Vs ./ Altec Stonhenge I A 819

    Hi all , being Italian I apologize now for my English! pardon
    would change the speakers ... but ?! I'm not sure .
    I am a happy owner of Altec's Stonehenge the 819-A, piloted gives a Final ( Power Amp ) Eam Lab TO 3.8 , is a 200 W x2 channel.
    the sound that comes out of the speakers is very good, and although it may be around in the new honestly, today I struggle to find well sounding speaker at Altec level ... but something is missing, however.
    Something I found in a ' listening JBL XPL 200 (unfortunately not in my house, the seller is afraid that being scratched in shipping , oh, ruined) ... that being a 4-way, besides having more information from their greater harmonic expression.

    Now come the QUESTION concerns;
    It's not that those tweeter and Titanium Mid I'll have a little high?
    more annoying having the Bass-reflex, you say that I might have a low range returns?
    behind the wall of listening than I could detach from the wall? 30/40 Cm? (30 cm 0.984252 feet)

    the environment in which listening is the daughter's room a 20 Mq .
    Thank you
    mauro

    You'll love the XPL200A. I wish I had a pair of those but they are very difficult to find even here in the USA.

    I'd love to hear a pair and compare to the 250ti in the same room.

    Hi, BMWCCA
    I did not understand what you had? if the Altec or JBL
    If I understood well, Altec Vs. 200 JBL XPL?

    would love me too!
    the problem is that the shopkeeper lets try apples (not I give you, you know! If you tell me that the shopkeeper is a artful dodger )
    ... but assessed the Altec Stonhenge 819 to 600 euro , here in Italy it's not like there in america ...
    the XPL 200 I heard in the store, and as I have written, more info in suono.qui in Italy there is a proverb that says, ' If, good morning, ' and in fact to me son liked them !!
    the problem is, my room which I

    I do not own either, though I do have over a dozen JBLs. I've heard the XPL-200A and was very impressed and I do have other 4-way JBLs such as the L7, L5, 250ti, and 4345. I've not heard the Stonehenge series personally but I've heard opinions of them from others I do respect and they were not that flattering compared to larger JBL systems and even other Altecs. What does the XPL-200 cost in Europe? The last pair of 819s sold on Ebay brought $449 here after over three months of listings.
