JBL M2 speaker system ....

No problem. You're welcome.

Interesting. Do you know which models of JBL?

No, you need the active crossover. There's no crossovers inside the M2. It is a superb speaker to say the least from what I hear. I hope they have them on active display (with the Levinson stuff) @ CES! :D

Ok, $46k for the Levinson based system. Thanks Kana813. Does that include the preamp and digital source?

Joeinid, I would like to use my own amps and preamp of my choice too. An alternative to this would be the consumer K29900s and possibly the S4700 or S3900. Do they sound as good as the M2s? I can't say for sure, but the consensus is that the M2s are better. I dunno if these people heard all of these speakers side by side however.

Exactly right Joeinid, it would be wise to audition them first. And again, I hope they will in fact be at CES. They were at RMAF, so I don't see why not. It would be great to audition them, providing they're on active display, even if it's not in the greatest sounding room.

Ok, cool. Sounds good. If you go to http://www.jblsynthesis.com/ there's a find a dealer app where you punch in your zip code and go from there.

You're welcome. Yeah, I hope it works out for you...

Well, if I hear them at CES, I'll let you know...
