    Isn't it like Dido (girl) or Ditto (punctuation)?

    Damn! Googled Diddo for the hell of it and it took me to urban dictionary which is off limits while at work.
    Now I have to break out my irons and gunbattle with the LAN police when they show up at my office.

    meaning I DID DO it when asked a question
    Did you sign up for the luncheon.

    Diddo


    I think Toddalin meant "ditto"

    I'm living too close to the border eh.

    I'm a two fisted rum drinker with high gloss stairs and no treads. I wear socks to add a wee bit of danger to it all.

    Please allow me to preface my post with this.....

    1) This comment is coming from someone who has purchased the following JBL components, in the last year:

    2 hf diaphragms
    2 hf compression drivers
    3 pro audio 12" drivers
    3 pro audio hf horns
    misc. hardware, gaskets, logos, screws, bolts, crossovers, corner protectors via proservice

    2) Have completed an SR 4722 restoration

    3) Started a cutom DIY two way system with JBL components

    I cannot even comprehend the narrow-minded comments on this post that bleed on and on about the Sunfire's inferiority to (insert JBL product here).

    Some of you guys need to break out of your shell, live a little, hear a pair of British loudspeakers, maybe go skydiving, come out of your JBL workshop / worship room, and get a little sun, maybe even audition a (properly applied) Sunfire (in a proper listening environment).

    If JBL products didn't exist, I must wonder if some of you would not be able to appreciate music at all.
    I love the way music makes me feel.

    Wow!

    I think there are a couple of things you should consider. How do you know we haven't?? I think most of us are hear for that "JBL" sound. I grew up in a house with a Garrard turntable, Leak Amps, Tuner and Preamp and Wharfedales all of which I still own. I also have Infinities and Boston Acoustics and AR's. None of them do it for me like the JBL's. It a personal thing. I can understand reading the thread why you posted this but you can't always tell what's going on from peoples posts.

    Maybe you are trying to read too much into a simple typo.

    As for others, I never said the Sunfire was superior. I mearly stated that I had never heard a JBL play as loud as low. Certainly I've not heard all the JBLs.

    Maybe Zilch's monster sub could do it... , but I never got a chance to hear it.

    Next time you're up here, we'll swap the 2241H's into it for a little run.

    I have also figured out how to make 2242H's fit.

    [Don't have any yet, tho.... ]
