Something interesting

[lcswoosh05]

I found something interesting I found two kinds of JBL speakers that are the same specs but I would like to know if these are the same speakers. One is the JBL Control 1 Xtreme and one is the JBL Control ONE. I see that the Control ONE is sold in Best Buy or in another country. I saw the specs on the box or the Control 1 Xtreme and it goes 50hz to 20kHz. The Control ONE is the exact same too but its soo confusing on what's the difference.

Ya I was woundering about that Control ONE too and what's the difference. That's a good question.

[SpankingVanillaice]

Ya the specs are the same when I saw both.

I don't know much about JBL model numbers, I have read that huge stores like Best Buy with a low price guarantee get manufacturers to issue a special model numbers thereby making sure that you can never collect on the low price guarantee. "I'm sorry sir, that lower price unit is a different model."

SVI!!! HOW MANY F*CKING TIME DO WE HAVE TO TELL YOU!!! SPECS MEAN NOTHING!!!

oh, and lcswoosh05, please, look elsewhere, JBL sucks... sorry to put it blunt, but their cheap stuff does, the higher end stuff isn't too bad, some love it. but the cheap stuff is:

J unkie
B ut
L oud

So, look around, i bet those are the same speaker, but visit a local hi-fi shop first.

(PS, SVI, that pic is f*cking freaky dude)

[lcswoosh05]

Well I am a huge JBL fan and I have lot's of speakers from them. I don't think the affordable ones sound that bad as you say they do. But I just was woundering what was the difference on those two speakers. But it might be just the name is different but on the Control ONE the box says it's the orginal series. I looked at the copyright and the Control ONE was made in 2004 and the Xtreme was made in 2002. So the Control ONE might be a newer updated model and maybe better sound but I just need to know if you guys know for sure if the Control ONE is better.



Thanks everyone

does SVI have multiple personalities? and log-in names here?? sure seems like it, didnt anyone notice lcswoosh05 and SVI both spell "woundering" the same way??

[lcswoosh05]

Who is SVI? Is he or she your friend? Anyways I found a pic of the box of the Control ONE on ebay. It looks different from the C1X.

I really think you guys are rude to who ever that person is since I am NOT Icswoosh05. That makes me mad. There are other guys that like JBL too so quit it. So what if he spells words wrong that doesnt mean that its me.

[SpankingVanillaice]

Why would I make many names if I have 337 posts which the most posts I ever made on all forums. Thats pointless to make other names.

I'm sorry...I'm not trying to be rude....but I'm not stupid either. It just makes sense...there can't be two people here with your particular style.

Then why do you both have the same exact IP address? You are busted and becoming a troll. Be careful!

[emorphien]

Icswoosh is SVI isn't it?

[audio_dude]

yeah, somepeople like JBL, but SVI, you are just an IDIOT, plain and simple, now please leave to that other forum you joined and get the h*ll out of here!

GET, SHOO!!!

I really really don't appreciate that you guys hate me soo much. I am just posting and asking questions about speakers I seleted. If I wanted to know more about better or different speakers I would put something like "what are the best speakers for music" THEN you guys can say whatever speakers you please and we can compair and see what's best. Ok???

Nobody is hating you, but you are very uneducated about audio, including speakers. People are trying to prevent you from repeating mistakes you have already made, and so far you've been uninterested in that.

[SpankingVanillaice]

Well anyways who ever this guy is I would like to know the answer to his question to since I was thinking the same thing and needed to know the answer about the difference on Control ONE and Control 1X that I currently own.

seriously, it wasn't even a very good attempt at a second identity. And on top of that, he's asked the exact same questions as "Icswoosh" on other forums without assuming different identities.

[SpankingVanillaice]

OKOKOK FINE I am icswoosh05 too I did that because I wanted to start over and start from fresh meaning from people not hating me anymore since I really really felt bad that you guys are picking on me when I am just asking about certan speakers I really like. I just wanted to know how good are these speakers only and not other kinds I know there are other great speakers out there but I am just into JBL alot since my dad said JBL speakers are soo great and he works in a recording studio and plays drums. He use to own the JBL Control 1 pro versions and I really liked them alot. But they are not working anymore and had to be tossed away. I just wanted to know how good is the Control ONE is compaired to my new JBL Control 1X.

[emorphien]

nevermind, you'll just continue to be ridiculed

I thought there was hope for you, but evidently there really wasn't.

[SpankingVanillaice]

Why you guys can't just tell me the difference in the two speakers I was talking about?? I mean it's not a hard thing to tell which speakers are better out of the two. Please tell me the difference in the two. I am serious guys and no more making fun on me please.

Nobody has told you because nobody knows. And besides even if we liked one of them better than the other, it might be the opposite for you. Go try them out for yourself, or take a pair home and compare it. If you don't like it, then take them back.

[MikeyBC]

Well if you own the 1X's then i'd say they are a newer slightly improved version...you wouldnt think JBL would take a speaker and make it worse would you, now just sit back and enjoy what you have, which is better than the majority of the population that listen to York or Citizen rack systems.
