    Perhaps one day you'll see the light and upgrade your speakers. In the meantime, everyone should be happy.

    Is it just me or has this already been suggested a thousand times!
    Nope, it's not just you.... that has been suggested numerous times in this thread already.....

    Congats to Spanky though! This is the best thread by a Troll I've read on this site in a long long time.....

    It's just one of those threads that keeps drawing us back into it....even though we all know that no one can possibly be as stupid as Spanky pretends to be..... but it is a good thread... very entertaining....

    you moron,

    don't you get it?

    if all the jbl dealers, tech guys, anyone related with JBL say it's bad, then jbl will go down, and all those guys will lose their job and thereby lose all they have left in their miserable lifes.
    think about it.

    now take a rest, make sure your mind's clear, because now there is something you must learn...

    ...

    ready?


    JBL is CRAP,
    SPECS on CHEAP CRAP are LIES,
    any MONEY spent on JBL CRAP is WASTED MONEY
    there IS ALOT BETTER for that PRICE,

    and last, but not least,
    BUYING the SAME things in different colours and a different package, will NOT MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE AT ALL.

    and SAVE ON, AND BUY SOMEHTING GOOD.




    Got it?

    now go out your mental clinic and do something useful.

    SVI,

    I say keep your speakers and your receiver. Get a subwoofer. Here is one in your price range: http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showd...number=300-635

    You will keep the sound you like and get MUCH more bass than you will ever get with those bigger speakers.

    Hi Spanky,

    Glad to see you posting again. Sorry that I can't help you with your choices. I hope that you find something to your liking.

    Agreed. Actually the HLS series was one of the better designs JBL launched. Especially the 610's. There new studio monitors they sell on the pro end are actually exceptional sounding. As well as the stuff used in cinemas.

    The new studio line on the consumer end is not bad as well. They just require high quality amp's to sound there best.

    Actually SVI. The speakers you where selling on e-bay where the best speakers you had and should have never been sold. You should have kept those and got a sub. In fact the sub suggested above from parts express has been the best suggestion of this whole thread.

    yes, that's not crap, sorry for the 'bad' explanation, I know not all JBL speakers are crap, but the ones that spanky is looking at are.
    I know JBL makes high end speakers, and that they also make professional gear, our 'local' cinema uses jbl, and it sounds good.

    but spanky's just aren't...

    so hereby I correct that false statement,
    and I will say

    Those JBL's are crap.

    (with "those" referring to spanky's)

    I know that the S26 I had were the best speakers I had but I wanted soo baddly the HLS610 or so since those speakers have the polycarbonated dome tweeters with that THX horn. I like the sound of the Poly tweeters and the bass I remember was really good too. I really did take a good listen to them before when they were out in stores and I was amazed on the deep bass but they were too expensive. So my dad got the HLS410 for my b-day and I was really happy. I was hoping though that the HLS series would continue until I can buy my own HLS610 but they stoped making them which made me upset. But now I can buy them and I found one on E-Bay that is almost as new so I was really excited. I know the studio series were better line but since that the HLS series were the first JBL I ever owned and heard in stores it brings me memories when I was 14 and 15and the amazements of how sound can be since before the HLS410 I had I used boom boxes that sucked. Anyways this is why I want the HLS series alot so I will probley get the HLS610 that's on E-Bay now after the check clears from the person who bought my JBL S26.

    Yes, but have you listened to anything else in your price range? You can do MUCH better than JBL for $250-350 you doofus. Don't limit yourself to what little you know.

    So that's the reason why it's so quiet these days...

    Spanky, (or Mr Bamboo Forest, like JRA calls you)

    you should really widen you options, there is alot of stuff out of there that will beat those jbl's in that price class, right now, i'm thinking about paradigm, wharfedale, monitor audio, focal, kef, ..., a used b&w, really, you should check them out too.

    i'm sure you'll like them.

    really, those guys here helped me alot, and they made me do different things than that i would do without there help, my speakers would have ended up on the wall for example, and heck, they even really talked me in vinyl (Thnx JRA, it rules) you should really trust them, read what they are saying,

    Keep them spinning,

    Just so we're all of the same level of understanding here, you knowingly traded a superior speaker for an admittedly inferior speaker so you could curl up with yer blankey and re-live your formative years. Now you come hat-in-hand to the forum wanting to know if you should "trade up" to a less-inferior speaker or buy a receiver for that scintillating less-sucky sound. That sound 'bout right?

    nobody really cares. Whatever you ask and whatever we say, you go ahead and do whatever it is you decided beforehand, no matter how stupid it is.

    "those speakers have the polycarbonated dome tweeters with that THX horn"

    hmm, thats gotta be the funniest n00b quote i've ever seen...

    SVI, you are a complete and utterly incompetent moron who can't listen and you only come to this place so you can try and trick someone into confirming your naive beleifs that all speaker companies tell the total truth on everything... why not just go to the dollar store, but a $1 portable radio, WITH EARPHONES!!, and bask in the superior sound quality and workmanship, listen to that nice rumbly bass, that smooth-as-silk midrange and that perfectly tuned top end!


    there, problem solved, and you've saved yourself $149... now go give you boyfriend a BJ and get on with life!!!
