Re: JBL 3677

Re: JBL 3677

Hi All It seems from previous posts as if the sub of choice to be used with the 3677 is the 4645C. Is there a specific reason why the 4645C is the choice over the smaller brother 3635? I am consideri...

Re: JBL 3677

Re: JBL 3677

Hi, it would be very nice to know what the 3677 owners here found to be the best distance between the back of the speakers and the wall. Many thanks. Matt I've owned the 3677 twice and own them curre...

Re: JBL 3677

I have my 3677's running since 20days and they sound great now, better than my 242mkI. Warning! they will sound very bad the first days. Stiff, no bass, no dynamics, high frequencies that destroy you...

Re: JBL 3677

Yea the A model 8340A has a plastic enclosure. The older 8340 is wooden. I test my surrounds as mains for weeks before I'll use them as surrounds.. I'm really picky. The A model was very harsh. I test...

Re: JBL 3677

Why are you guys removing the crossover? This speaker takes weeks to break in. Any audible improvements would probably be due to break in and not moving the crossover. The way it's mounted the drivers...

Re: JBL 3677

Hey guys... I have been a long time 3677 fan. Here's my review from a few years back. I also had the QSC 2150 cinema speakers as well and just went back to 3677. http://www.avsforum.com/forum/89-speak...
