JBL K2 S9900 vs Klipsch Heritage Jubilee Horn Speakers.
In YouTube videos Klispch confirmed the use of the Axi2050. Interesting to have such a high tech driver, probably a big part of why they sounded good.    
Did I screw up??? C2700 vs c49
That was quick. I have heard both the 2700 and C49. I thought both systems sounded pretty good. With the B&W the tubs probably help smooth out the highs a touch.

The good thing is if you go JL Audio they have great service, as one day you will need it…   
I am about to embark on my next upgrade journey
I am not a big fan of the B&W 705 S2. They have poor dynamics and so so highs. The Sopra should be a big upgrade in all areas. The the down side of focal in the US is price, there are a lot of things just as good but cheaper. If you like/want ... 
Subwoofer - is there one that would work in this situation?
I think you will struggle with a single small sub in a locked location. DSP for the sub through internal or external like a Mini DSP would really help.    if you plan to just come in under your mains, say 40hz or less, one can be ok. If you want ... 
full range or mini's and a sub
Full size speakers WITH subs is the correct answer. There needs to be a sound power hand-off between the sub and speaker. Most subs are far more dynamic than stand mount speakers, so the speaker will still be the limiting factor. There are excepti... 
Dog pissed on speaker
I would just leave the cone alone. The smell will fade, and messing with it will make it worse.   
Monitor audio platinum pl200 ii , revel f226be, or something else?

Used or on sale Revels are hard to beat. At their retail prices there are options just as good (more different than better). I have never heard monitor audio but owned the 228be before moving onto the JBL 4367. The 228be sounds almost identical t...

Well I am not from Florida but I am currently in Florida lol. But yes, I am pretty much at a 100% failure rate with JL audio. I wonder how much of an exception it really it.    When they broke the second time my shopped offered me a floor model w...

lol!   Pretty soon we can have “fake news” banners here too. The more banners the more real it is…

No I would not switch. Doubtful the JL is much different from ML sound wise. I have had 5 (yes 5) failed JL E112s, friends don’t let friends by JL.   
JBL K2 S9900 vs Klipsch Heritage Jubilee Horn Speakers.
Kennymacc,   high praise for sure. I would like to hear/own them sometime. I wonder if they are using celestion Axi2050 compression drivers. The specs seem to match up.  
JBL K2 S9900 vs Klipsch Heritage Jubilee Horn Speakers.
The Jubilee has always looked interesting. The active crossover in the Jubilee allows for manual balance adjustment between the bass drivers and horn which is needed to use different amps. It also corrects the time domain. the 340hz crossover is i...

Mofojo,   that is good to hear. Does it show you the changes it makes before and after running the correction? Do you allow full bandwidth correction or limit it to a frequency (say 200hz and lower)?
