I was wondering if anyone on the forum has any input on the sound quality of these speakers from the mid 80s. They are classic JBL with 12 inch woofers, 5 inch mid, and titanium dome tweeter in a walnut veneer cabinet. In their day they were considered a top quality speaker. Any thoughts?? What would they compare with now?

As someone who makes a conscious effort to purchase US-made products, I'd like to take slight issue with Jon Iverson's assertion that "... for $879, YBA Design has really accomplished something in the WD202." Granted, the WD202 appears to be a well-engineered product but given the PRC's VASTLY lower component AND labor costs, is it really a big accomplishment? You can't fairly compare the US-manufactured Benchmark DAC1 to the WD202 based on price.

lookin forward to this one!

I predict a high of 29 degrees, rapidly dropping during a sleet filled evening in New York on Feb. 9, 2014.

Oh....

And, Dallas will beat Houston in a battle between two teams from Texas.

Can I interpret the review of the CEntrance DACport as saying the DACport is competitive (and in some ways superior) in sound quality AND measurements to the Benchmark DAC1 when listening via USB?

I have some CW speakers for use in my garage/shop and the foam on one driver is falling apart. I noticed on Ebay that you can buy foam repair kits for the drivers. Anyone try this? Is it better to just replace the 8" drivers? They are probably 20 years old anyway. If so, where can I get JUST the drivers? Auto stereo shop?

Thanks

Hi All,

I recently moved apartment, and when I set up my sound system in the new place, I was greeted with a horrible buzzing noise from the speakers.

I switched the cables between the L and R sockets on the amp, and the buzzing, which was worse on one side then got worse on the other, which implies it may be the speaker sockets (I use banana plugs) on the amp, however I hen changed from speaker set A to speaker set B, which had never been used, and the buzzing was still there.
