    JBL 4312 vs 4312MkII

    OK, I bought them and a closer look reveals that one of the bass speakers have had a couple of tears that has been "repaired". Apparently the former owner "glued and painted the membrane" and it seems to work, the membrane is stiff and there are no "off" sounds. However the bass is not as deep...

    JBL 4312 vs 4312MkII

    Just to clarify: These are the kind of 4312 Mk II speakers I already have and love: http://www.audioheritage.org/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=239&title=jbl-4312mkii-wx&cat=516 This is how the 4312 look with their "tilted" high and mid frequency units ...

    JBL 4312 vs 4312MkII

    Hello Mech Thank you so much for your answer ... this is apparently a very difficult area to research. There are so many models. I believe there are 4312, 4312A, 4312mkII and some also refer to 4312B ... the 4312s I am looking at have the LE 5-12, LE 25-2 and 2213 H drivers ... the midrange...

    JBL 4312 vs 4312MkII

    Hello fellow audio lovers I have a pair of JBL 4312 Mk II control monitors and I love them. I also have a pair 4410's. Both pairs are connected to a McIntosh 2125 amp (1 amp per pair) and they play beautifully. Perhaps th 4410s are a bit "rounder" while the 4312 mk II's are sharper and more...

    JBL 4410s Arrive Today (my 1st big JBLs)

    OK, I have heard the 4410s now and compared them to my 4312 mk II and I think its a close race, but I still prefer the 4312s - more crisp, more "naked" and they do seem to go a bit deeper, but I also have to admit, that if you don't compare one set to another the 4410 is an absolutely great...

    JBL 4410s Arrive Today (my 1st big JBLs)

    Tensleep ... I have apair of 4312s myself and I love this speaker. Probably my all time favorite ever since I realized it's not in the cards that i will ever get the money or the room for the set of 4344s I once heard in a showroom. The 4312s are i.m.h.o. dry, unforgiving, precise and...

    JBL 4410s Arrive Today (my 1st big JBLs)

    What to choose I wonder if anybody has an opinion on what speakers to select. I can buy a set of JBL 4410 and JBL 4312 mk II - the price for the two sets are the same, and their cosmetic condition is similar. The 4410s have apparently been refoamed fairly recently I believe the 4312s are...

    Convert 110V to 240V

    I had one of my MC2125s converted, and it was a cakewalk, as Lewinski says, it's already there, it's just a matter og making the right connection. However, with the C32 it's a different matter, since it has some weird autostart circuits (it's supposed to turn on, when you start your turntable...

    Make Those Meters Blue

    Hmmm ... I changed my lamps to blue LEDs and I absolutely hate it. They are definitely blue now ... blue like this strong, modern bluetooth-blue. Almost blinding. I don't know what went wrong ... I have blue LEDs and blue filter? Perhaps. Anyway I'm looking for lamps now to replace the LEDs...

    JBL L300's sell for $5200.00 on ebay!!!!

    Great, thanks for that explanation. I can live without the glass top, and the glass/black look, since that will be covered by the front. Now I just need to now if the price is fair. So if anyone can give an estimate, I would be grateful. There are none for sale on ebay. :) Peter

    MC2125/C32 history

    Yes, possibly, but the strange thing is, they prepared for lighting of the logo, and then someone decided otherwise and they painted black paint over backside of the logo. What an absolutely stupid decision. I would SO love to reverse it if anyone has aver tried it (succesfully) I would be...

    MC2125/C32 history

    Hello McFamily I had a MC 2105 and a C26 .... long time ago. I now have 2 MC2125s and a C32 and what annoys me, is that the old set LOOKED better. Somebody somewhere must have decided not to light up the logo and model number on the front of the MC2125 and C32. Why on earth is that...

    MC2125 bias adjustment

    Hello My "hifi doctor" (I just listen to music) has my two MC2125s in for a service check and reading the service manual he was a bit surprised to see the guide on adjusting the bias. Turn it up, turn it down (Service manual, Schematic Notes, Point 8). He claims it's not the way to do...

    Placing speakers - my puzzle

    Hmmm ... all sorts of input. At least I can smile at the thought that I brought amusement to some of you. My original question was a double ... I'd like to avoid too much bass travel. I live in an old building from 1813. I have a design studio below - they leave around 5 pm. No problem. I...

    Placing speakers - my puzzle

    Drail: So what you are saying is - basically - that it really doesn't do much difference whether the speakers are standing flat on the floor or somehow isolated from the floor with a damping material (or suspended in mid air with a tractor beam) - what my neighbors will hear/feel is the bass I...

    Placing speakers - my puzzle

    No, I havent. I also don't have a light sabre. I was merely speculating on the speed and impact of sonic bass travel in multi-level structures conceived to accomodate live humans. Thanks for your thoughtful input.
