I asked the techs at JBL and they said this about the new JBL Control ONE compaired to JBL Control 1 Xtreme. He first thought the specs are the same on the two when I first e-mailed.

"I apologize for the confusion. We have had so many CONTROL 1 type speakers over the years, virtually all the same, that when you stated that the specs were identical, my memory told me that these were two of the same speakers. Upon further inspection my memory was refreshed. The CONTROL 1 XTREME was one of the first models to reintroduce the CONTROL 1 series to the market. It looked the same, but used smaller drivers and used a titanium laminate rather than a pure titanium tweeter. The demand for the original CONTROL 1 speakers is what brought about the re-release of the CONTROL ONE. The CONTROL ONE is the better of the two models in question"

And yet his threads seem to continue to be prolific in the number of posts generated.
Maybe if nobody responded, he'd go away. Just a thought.

That's very true. I guess I was just responding to those that keep posting and saying how they wish he would go away.
I find his threads to be entertaining myself.:3:

Do you see what's happening? Spanky now has dozens of men abusing him on a regular basis. This must be the culmination of a life-long dream. We are just providing him with sexual fuel for his erotic fantasies. Our "spankings" are exactly what he craves.

If we stop responding, he will go away.

Careful there, Brainstorm. We jostle with SVI in good fun (and he takes it well), but that post could get you banned.

What about all those guys who work at the guacamole factories? Day in and day out, they get up and go to work to support their families. Now you're gonna put all those guys out of work just because you don't like guacamole? Their children will be cold and starving. What a self centered SOB.

...they exist, it's the empire that doesn't...They used to commemorate the day with a fifth (of Scotch) but two 5ths in a row became somewhat confusing and tended to cause problems...but then they joined the EU and went metric anyway, so they substituted 750ml bottles of single malt and everyone eats haggis, wears the funny hats they get in their crackers and has a ripping, cracking, jolly old time...
