Yamaha A-S301 vs Yamaha A-S501

[PENG]

I pulled the 88dB from JBL's website.
Disappointing to see they are exaggerating their specifications.

May be not, S&V measured it at 85.5 dB but that's for the range 500 to 2,000 Hz. I should have mentioned it, but that range seems reasonable. I am also surprised at even the specified 88 dB, I thought those speakers were horn loaded.

We actually have (3) pairs of the JBL230s'. 2 pairs still brand new in boxes. Overall a nice sounding, flat response, but needs a mild bottom-end kick... To sound right..
The Northridge series was enhanced by Dr.Toole's R&D team, also note there was a spin-off series using the same drivers/acoustics sold under the HK brand exclusively for Circuit City.

Just my $0.02...

Are you selling them, at blow out price?

Maybe someday I will sell off some of my excess inventory....
The last pair my son took for his office..

Just my $0.02...

I know the feeling, I have my inventory problem too and that gets worse as I grow older and older, obviously..
