JBL Studio 590

[man00]

I been looking at these for replacement for my 100T's in the living room in a HT. From just reading the hype online they seem to be pretty good.
My problem I have to drive two hours just to listen to these. Anyone on here using the 509's? If so what do you think?
I plan to move the L100T's to computer or bedroom if I get the 590's...I mean I just don't know for sure maybe the L100T is better but I would think not.

Anyone on here using the 590's..don't know where I came up with the 509's

I also have heard good things about them but never actually listened to a pair.

I do know JBL will discount them from time to time and with free shipping. They also offer returns if you don't like them so it may be worth it just to order them vs the price gas/time in a 4 hour round trip.

Thanks,
Scott

I didn't know JBL stopped all production of speakers in the US..Like I posted before I been away from audio for a while and just getting back in. I know out sourcing jobs is the thing now. I will have to give more thought before buying the 590's if at all. Where I worked closed and went to Mexico, company said what we produced just wasn't selling anymore. So they moved..funny thing was they still produce the same product, and guess what the price didn't drop one penny. Almost 5000 jobs gone, near the end with only 800 people left there were many offering free labor if the company would leave then instead of June of the next year. Sorry to get off subject..
