I once had an equalizer with cal'd mic and a warble tone generator. Had to turn down either the 60 or 125hz with my 3600s and it helped a LOT.
Room has bunches to do with what you hear, of course. If you got lucky and have a room and a listening postion which eats that frequency, so much the better. I was never quite so lucky.
Bought the 3600s, a good JBL4311 copy. Dome tweeter, level controls, ported with typical midbass bump. Reasonably sensitive, easy on amps and would play pretty loud.
If I found some today, in good shape, they make fine speakers in the '2nd string system'....with a Vintage Sansui amp and a Dual TT........
Macrojack appeared in my dreams last night. When I woke this morning, there was a large pod by the bed, a pair of Druids in the living room, and Warrenh was fixing me a breakfast of scrambled tympanics.
You could probably find just those units on eBay, Grant. Why not? See if you can get the satisfaction back!
I think a lot of us are searching for a sound we once had with much more modest systems. On the other hand, as they say, things aren't as good as they used to be...and they never were. :-)
No. Rogersound Labs was a Southern California based speaker manufacturer that manufactured pretty good mid-fi speakers. They then got into equipment sales, expanded too fast, took on too much debt and went under. They were not related to Rogers.
Probably not - Rogers Sound Lab was a retail chain in California many years back. They made a proprietary line of speakers, many of which were very good. But the sound is a lot more old school JBL then traditional British
