| Opinions and recommendations on active loudspeakers @steve59 what jbl wireless speakers are high end? | |

| Buy a pair of ten year old $40,000 speakers for $4,000 or new ones at that price point? it depends what you mean by bargain. Some speakers are so overpriced to begin with that even if it was a fraction of the price it would still be overpriced. | |

It’s almost like a dirty little secret that speaker manufa... | |

| Is it time in your hobby to build a speaker kit? Do this to roll your own crossover out of exotic Teflon and copper foil. Active crossover is what you need if you're doing DIY. You can't experiment with the crossover as easily when doing passive. | |
| Frequency response + or - 1 dB ?? Would you please describe your current speaker syste, as well as any widely available commercial speaker you stan?I don't have a current system. None that meet my standards can be found for a reasonable cost or perhaps even at any cost. The last s... |
