I was at the post office shipping out the E155-4s and Eminence horns yesterday. Of course the three boxes were well packed and said "Fragile Electronics" on the tops. In very broken English, the postal clerk (Vietnamese I believe) asked "what's in the boxes?" Proudly I announced that they were JBL speakers. He asked if I sold them on ebay. I replied that I had sold them over the 'net, but not through ebay.
Then he started asking me if I liked various brands (starting with Bose of course) and I told him I was pretty much a JBL man.
Anyway, he said that the had some 3-ways, but had blown out the woofer surrounds. He thought the speakers were now useless. I asked what the woofers were and he said he thought that they were JBL 124s.
I told him that any JBLs were not useless and he could simply have them refoamed at Orance County Speaker for $45 each. He had never heard of refoaming or OCS.
Anyway, it looks like he now had an outlet to get his JBLs back on the road.
(Maybe I should have said, Yeah..., totally useless..., but I'll give you $50/pair...:hmm: )
NAHHH, we don't roll that way. :drive:
