MEH Synergy Posted April 27, 2022 Author Share Posted April 27, 2022 My avatar name change was just a social experiment for fun. Results so far are as expected. I didn't know I could only change names twice in a month. Oh well, now it's stuck for a month ha. Back to the speaker sale. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha; now I understand Thanks for the detailed pics on the HF bracket. Finally understand ho to rig up my new JBL 2384 horns BTW, how would you compare these to K510's (as I believe you have a set of those also).. Thanks, Emile PS: GLWS; worth every penny. You may want to add what drivers are in the HF section. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may want to add what drivers are in the HF section. The 510s were great BUT only at higher volumes (too loud for daily listening) in my 396s. At reasonable to low levels, they needed significant HF boost otherwise they sounded like less and completely lacking detail to my ears. They jbls are completely opposite. Very detailed at any volume, crystal clear and just the right amount of top end sparkle for my liking. The soundstage and vocals are massive on these JBLs. They sound as they look, large and true to life. Had I not I upgraded on my purchase, these would be going anywhere. They make the Cornwalls I am selling sound like small bookshelf speakers in comparison if that tells you my thoughts? Not a fair comparison whatsoever. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEH Synergy Posted April 27, 2022 Author Share Posted April 27, 2022 Speakers are completely stock. No modifications. Grilles only were purchased separately and custom made with acoustically transparent cloth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have the same issue anymore room wise. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's interesting to hear about the 396's but I don't believe the 510 horns are the culprit. I have 510's with the k-69a's as mids in my 335's and they are very detailed and revealing at low volumes but they do have the help of a tweeter. I wonder if its in the crossover design of the 396 being more geared for higher output? I have noticed a few people have purchased 396's and give them all sorts of praise only to turn them within a few months.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't blame the horn. The 396s Def like to pump out volume. The louder the get, the better they sound. It's not subtle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OO1 Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 the 510 is not the problem , that's for sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEH Synergy Posted April 28, 2022 Author Share Posted April 28, 2022 As I have been asked this question a few times, I'll answer it publicly. YES. I can and will ship these SAFELY using USHIP. Picked up and delivered by hand. They will arrive safely, have done this many times on this forum here with large klipsch Pro gear I sold. No issues reported.

MEH Synergy Posted April 28, 2022 Author Share Posted April 28, 2022 No BS these are killer speakers. It's why I have owned so many klipsch speakers and only this one pair of JBLs. You are telling me what I listen to almost daily in your post. Enjoy. The bass bins are killer too. Very robust, braced cabinets. Non resonant compared to say a Cornwall. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
