JBL M2 speaker system ....

Any thoughts on using the JBL M2 speaker system for home audio? Can anyone who has heard them post their opinions? Thanks!

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

If I could use my own amplification for the speakers, I'd seriously consider these. I am not sure the Crown Audio amps would be "sweet enough" for my taste. I believe the Levinson amps would sound better, but possibly still not to my taste.

If you can get the DSP parameters from JBL they could easily be programmed into any DSP based electronic crossover and you could use your own amps.

Best of luck

Thank you Peter but I don't think they even want to break up the package. Getting the DSP parameters will be difficult at best. I will try.

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.
