The L100’s of today are not anywhere the same as the L100 of old.
JBL Synthesis SDP-75
Seeking thoughts on the JBL Synthesis SDP-75 and alternative options.
Harmon rep is pushing the synthesis lineup (with in wall/ceiling speakers) for our new home theater.
We are elicited about this option, but don’t know much about the Synthesis products. This is a big investment for us and want to be sure we are heading in the right direction. We noticed the SDP-75 was released 5+ years ago and wonder if there was something in the price range more contemporary that we might be overlooking.
Had a pair of L100s back in the day - and was impressed back then. Hoping the old school rep lives on.
Appreciate thoughts.

i own the Trinnov Altitude 16 processor for the Home Theater. the SPD-75 is a re-badged version of the Trinnov Altitude 32, which is very similar. Audiogon is the wrong place to ask about the JBL Synthesis SPD-75. the SPD-75 (Trinnov) is the most capable and sophisticated multi-channel dsp processor on the market and deserves the best possible support and set-up processes. you need to go to the AVS Forum to this thread. https://www.avsforum.com/threads/jbl-synthesis-sdp-75.2170145/ or the Trinnov thread here; https://www.avsforum.com/threads/trinnov-altitude.1516103/page-750#post-60742565 there are many really knowledgeable owners of both units that are very active there. and Trinnov monitors those threads. any questions get answered quickly. i’m still a Trinnov newbie myself and have received lots of help there. 2 channel audio? Audiogon does a good job with help for that. but it has a marginal knowledge base for multi-channel help. the heavy hitters in multi-channel dsp are on AVS. |
