After lurking here awhile, I jumped onto the JBL bandwagon. I bought a pair of 4312's on E-Bay, and learned my lesson all over again. Don't buy speakers from someone who doesn't know how to pack them. Wrapped in newspaper and boxed just doesn't get it done. Fortunately, there was only one mashed corner, a front one of course. But it is fixable. Even with the grunged corner, they sound fantastic. I am planning to buy Audiobeers pair of 4412's as well, and will now have to split my loyalty between Altec Lansing, Trusonic, and JBL. Thank you, James B. Lansing
