Odd that since the 4365 sounded excellent with ML amplification.Originally Posted by User211
Anyway all moot s far as I'm concerned since I'd have to re-mortgage the house to buy Ian's Everests and that ain't going to happen. Taken me 20 years to pay the bastard off.

I'm not a fan of the genre but the Big Phat Band track being played comes from an excellent album, the sonics of which are fantastic.
Not apparent in the JBL room.
I went in there a multitude of times. It was never good.

A headphone one?
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

Most demonstrations at audio shows sound like PA systems IMO.

Nope, but I will be trying it with an active pre over the weekend since I have to dismantle the other system anyway.
