I just confirmed my JBL LC2 center channel is defective.
The sound has been, from day #1, muffled, faint, muddy.
Today I replaced it with an LC1, and then auditioned them one after the other, using the same segment of movie dialogue, at the same volume, same AVR settings.
No question, something wrong with the LC2.
The cabinet and components appear undamaged, and there was no sign that the box had been dropped in transit. It was purchased new.
Looking for suggestions as to what the issue might be...
Defective component(s), bad wiring, what?
As there will most likely be no warranty, I will have to get this fixed at my cost.
I guess after purchasing more than a dozen sets of speakers, plus individuals over the years, it was inevitable that I would get a dud eventually.:(
