    Not worth it

    I talked to JBL tech support and they said that the UHF horn that is used on the Studio L Series can't be heard meaning When you cover your hand and listen and then you uncover your hand on the UHF horns you wont hear a difference at all. They just said that you might feel the highs but you can't hear at all. So that's not really worth getting them if you can't even hear the highs.

    You know what is also completely worthless. Reading your posts!
    I have tried to help you at least a dozen of times, do you like abuse? Does it get you hot? If i bought a **** product and then run back for more eventhough i dont like it, would you call me an idiot? I know i would!

    Maybe next time you'll listen to us. Would have saved you a call to JBL, which I'm sure they loved talking to you.

    no need

    no need to respond to erroneous, redundant babble if it bothers you.

    anyone ever notice how annoying mosquitos are? but they never seem to go away.

    my 2 cents.

    It keeps bats away. Or at least, makes them fly into trees, walls, etc..

    SVI- did you ask about covering the UHF horn with other objects? It might be that a hand is transparent to UHF frequencies. You need to cover it with objects that are known to block UHF.

    But that would increase demand for snot. The price would go above $500 a gram.
    Price = demand/supply.

    Virtually nothing from Redbook CD. Perhaps some wispy harmonics from a nice analog setup.
