    JBL old school sound comes back!

    That is 4367!

    I listened to it carefully at local dealer shop, very impressive,the bass goes deeper than 4365 and very pounchy and rapid.

    Only one question: how to crossover it using outside DSP?

    Where's the UHF driver?
    ". . . as you have no doubt noticed, no one told the 4345 that it can't work correctly so it does anyway."—Greg Timbers

    Ha. Good eye. Maybe it's like the 4430s. Two way with pots for adjusting two bands on the compression driver.

    The question really, as Ed recognized, was why the UHF and HF pots on a two-way system?

    I have a 4365 and the pots look the same as the 4367 in the picture. With the 4365 you can see two separate HF sections. It just appears odd to see two adjustments with only one horn......most likely works well however.
    Careful man, there's a beverage here!

    Little off topic but...
    Why there's 8 Ohms written on the back plate and in the specs there's 6 Ohms?

    Please forgive me my bad English but am I ignored?

    I've recently got 4367 and I'm impressed with the sound so much! I'm new to JBL. Previously had B&W 802 D2 & D3.
    My McIntosh MC601 has 8,4,2 ohms terminals. I've read on other thread that I should use 4 ohms terminal. And to my ears the sound is definitely better than 8 ohms.

    Personally I'd just go with what sounds good in this case. You're in between two nominal impedance ratings for the amp; I doubt you'll damage it.

    For further information I'd be checking with McIntosh to see what they advise.

    Good luck and congrats on your speakers.

    I like old school an iam not that age, it's senseless to reinvent the wheel
    here, if you have no music to appreciate, maybe orchestra recordings, but thats
    as good as it's going to get.

    IMO,MARK is much better than MCINTOSH to drive JBL,but still not good enough

    Hallo!

    On the specs it say "Nominal Impedance 6 ohms" and on the backpanel it only say's "Impedance 8 ohm".

    If I where you I would connect it at the 8 ohm tap on your McIntosh, the amp will run cooler instead of 4 ohm tap. I know, had McIntosh gear for over ten years.

    You have perfect amp for those speakers.

    My experience is using the 4 ohm tap of the MAC amps runs cooler
