Very nice set up. I was wondering if the valvmac had enough strengh for the 1501fe ? That kind of speaker is very sensible to the associate electronic. I had to turn something like 3-4 amps before the good one for 4338 !

Have any of our "usual suspects" here heard these in the flesh? They would seem to be pretty much a K2 S9900 (minus the beryllium tweeter) in a smaller (cheaper) box. Sounds like a decent recipe for some really nice sound if you ask me.

Crickets and tumbleweeds eh? No one has heard the 4365 or wants to admit to it?
I found the thread from last year which discloses their Mexican heritage. Guess I know why they are getting the silent treatment here now.
Oh well, time to learn Japanese I guess. Surely some forums over there are extolling the virtues of the new line...

No problems auditioning them in Norway, Soundgarden have them on display in some of their shops. I only know one person haveing them at home and here's a litle "review" he wrote on another forum (google translated text):
A little update from the happy owner of JBL 4365
These have now been used daily since Christmas. After the sound to judge, I think they are as good as recorded. The manual says "Several" weeks. The change process has been fascinating to follow. Spec bass has gone from being boomy and gompete to be defined with a lovely touch without getting too fat. It is probably more generous than in the signature bass on my old Speaker (Silver Line), but it is probably because more JBL bass press a little higher up. Around 700 Hz.
Maximum strength of 4365 is in my ears the ability to get completely ordinary recordings to engage as never before.
Last night was the biggest gasp for air as "le miserables" and some stuff from Rolf Løvland
"Sound Garden with friends" project, was checked out.
"Bring Him Home" from the former and "you rise me up" with Brian Kennedy is beautiful prunes you either love or hate. Is not embarrassed to say that this is in my ears wonderful music. Nothing that is played often, but since I'm all-consuming they played in between all the jazz.
Previously, these recordings have been a bit boring with a midrange that has been difficult to achieve on an absolute troværdig way. Not anymore, 4365 is absolutely amazing in the midrange. Got the wife
to take a trip up the listening room, and she had to admit that this was great. Big words from the edge
Now it must be said that Buffalo dacen mine is very good now after the last upgrade of EXA usb. Where exactly this with the presence and realism were a lot better afterwards.
JBL 4365 ruler so it is a true delight here at home. Now I can die happy. Hallelujah!
Here is the original Norwegian thread from the owner.
Greg has said that this new fifteen has some real nice snap to it. I think Jerry did an outstanding job designing it.
Hopefully those who want a pair of these can get them.
Any idea what might be required to get a pair?
Are there normal channels CONUS folks can us to inquire on price or get a pair?
Or should we just contact KenRick and have them ship us a new pair from overseas (??!!??)
OMG - Ouchie on that Ebay sale listed above!! - $28k???

I've seen things like that before... uses ebay/paypal to broker the funds
... just put up for a specific person to "buy it now" as arranged ahead of time.
Seems odd to me, but maybe someone else can explain the logic (making
it worth the fees involved).
