Re: JBL 308P and 708P
Initial impression of 308 (not installed, cold equipment; no love at all) compared to TM/3677 is not encouraging at all. It sounds really bad to be honest. Hopefully the will sound better when everything has warmed up and they are installed properly, but I have to admit I find it difficult to belie...

Re: Stylum max speaker stands

Re: Stylum max speaker stands
rps20211117_215949.jpg No idea what these sound like but they're getting good reviews, have good build quality, are available at different heights and are well priced. Monoprice has a .com and a .co.uk website. I saw them mentioned in the comments section of a Guttenberg review of Genelec G speaker...

Re: JBL 308P and 708P
I have a pair of 308 on their way to me since my 708’s got delayed and I couldn’t bare the silence any longer. So I’m going to be able to compare them directly.

Re: Crown amplifiers
XLS 1500 is available used here in Sweden for 2500 SEK/270 USD (c:a), about half the price of a new one. So they are another “budget”. :)

Re: Crown amplifiers
For my main system I’m getting 708P, expecting them to be better. It’s just that I look at the 3677 and feel I can’t get rid of them, so I was thinking about moving 3677 to the summer house. Of course that’s idiotic given that the summer house is rather small. Maybe I should just sell them. But for ...

Re: Crown amplifiers
I have heard, not Crown as are today, but Amcron / Crown, many years ago, when I visit Nat. TV and Radio Studios M1, M2 and M3. That was in several occasions on recording some Pop, Rock and Classical music songs and ... They was incredibly reveling, together with old JBL Studio Monitors 4343, 4351,...

Crown amplifiers
Given that the active JBL monitors seem to be so highly regarded among many members of this forum, it makes me wonder if anyone has experience with Crown amplifiers - supposedly the amplification built into those speakers? I have ordered a pair of 708's to replace my tundra mono/JBL 3677, but I don'...

Re: JBL 308P and 708P
I find it a little puzzling how many people bought them and rather quickly sold them (with, it seems, more to follow). 1: You are dealing with a very exentric sub-set of hifi-nerds if you select people who are willing to introduce that kind of speakers in their home, they are also going to change e...

Graham Audio stands ... I’ve been looking around at their webpage, but I don’t find any stands? I spoke to Graham Audio. All of the photographs of their speakers on the website are Graham Audio stands - if you email them they'll send you details of their stands. Adding them to their website would b...

Re: Stylum max speaker stands
I’ve been spending some time looking for a speaker stand that wold fit the size of the JBL708P better than the Kan and Katan strands most people here seem to use with the JBLs.

Re: JBL 308P and 708P
What, you don't think a 4645C is reasonable size? :-) Well, it's maybe not so much about what I think is "reasonable" as the fact that I don´t have room for it. It's also that I can’t get my hands on stands for it, and that it becomes a bit pricey considering that I need another tundra mono. :) EDI...
