Me vs. JL Audio - An open discussion.

As an owner of three JL Audio subs (all requiring repair at one time or another (due to the well known cheap-a-- Chinese capacitors in their amps) I must say that they do sound great. if I was starting again though, I’d probably opt for the SVS sealed subs SB16s. The JL stuff is just too overpriced in a competitive market.

You mean, like Beethoven? The famously deaf composer?

No. Composers that write music for unamplified instruments. Then hear it played in concert or a large recording studio.

Only a small portion of Beethoven's output occurred after he was deaf.

Room correction will only take you so far...(MHO...)

Ears and 'taste' (levels, xover, all that...) is the final %.

Having to 'make do' with 'non-pedigree' equipment for decades....but applying what now amounts to decades of 'tuning for the room' with a variety of 'things' to integrate such...

...I'm still slightly stunned and vaguely amazed that y'all 'don't get it'.

'Perfection', outside of a 'live' performance or sitting at the mix panel, is something you're simply trying to duplicate to the 'sonic image' you have in your head; and Really...nowhere else.

You can spend XK$ in this pursuit....and still 'fall short'....IYHO.

And...you're welcome to it.

(I've been really tempted to show up at AXPONA '20...Just Because. ;)  You'll recognise me...the one with the ear muffs on...
Why?  Because it's tiring to listen to 'all that', constantly.  And, listening to Anything in a hotel room isn't where I'd ultimately have 'it'...)

Yes, you are certainly welcome to regard me as an 'unwashed, no-nothing, uneducated' troll.  I'm good with that.  It also 'shows to go ya' you have absolutely no knowledge about me.

...and I'm absolutely Fine with That. *G* ;)

asvjerry. No, I’m pretty sure you’ve just told us everything there is to know about you...

...and you've stumbled into the 'alternate definition' of 'assume'....

Simplistic; try again.
