Re: It really ties the room together
Your last comparison is to my ears so close that I for a moment was wondering if it was the same system playing twice....... After listening to the clips I wondered the same thing. The differences I hear live are diminished in the recordings, which makes me suspect that those differences are of the...

Re: It really ties the room together
I'm really surprised, quite discuraged, and very puzzled by your choices. "Before" is the first clip I made when I initially set up the system over 2 years ago. Everything was arbitrarily dropped in place, hooked up, powered up, and the recording was made. No warmup, break-in, no setup, and before a...

Re: General Discussion about Källa
Today when I was listening to music and reached the end of my playlist, Spotify decided to play me some random music. All of a sudden I heard a tune that I haven't heard in 10 years (back then on the LP12). It was truly delightful to hear it on Källa and I was just amazed how fantastic it sounded. ...

Yep. That is obviously the case with any component. A musical component sounds the way it sounds because of the music. No more, no less.FairPlayMotty wrote: ↑2021-10-21 20:44 IME it's pretty tricky for a speaker to convey music without sound.

Re: JBL 308P and 708P
In the absence of comparative clips I've no detailed idea of how they'll sound relative to the six sets of loudspeakers I own. With my 3677s I trusted jajo and other members here a few years ago and would most certainly do as well with the 708P. I would always prefer the comments from members here ...

Re: JBL 308P and 708P
2) (assuming your problem is with the amount of bass below 80Hz) It would appear so with the recommended crossover setting, and the 310's own volume control. The way I read the 3-series manual is you can attenuate the sub output effectively dialing down the bass volume relative to the 308 volume of...

Re: JBL 308P and 708P
I recommend the LSR310S subwoofer from the same series as the 308P. It is a very musical subwoofer that has a built-in filter that is tuned perfectly for 308P. Signal would then go to the subwoofer and then on to the 308P. A friend of mine use 308P with two LSR310S (one per channel) with superb res...

Re: In case you haven't invested enough in cables
It would be interesting to hear clips comparing ~$100,000 speaker cables to ~$100 split K400, but I imagine the likelihood of that happening is slim.
