Love your enthusiasm John! Nice review.

I’ve just got the JBL 4305P smaller brother to this. It has blown me away how good it sounds, over Airplay. I had Klipsch the fives and KEF LSX II, and the JBL’s are better in every way.

@hiterss 2 дня назад

Noted, thank you. I'm thinking about getting a pair JBL instead of the 7s or 9s

Anything is better than The Fives, I own the Nines and it's a game changer.

It's more like a writhing, boiling pit of snakes in my system. I have to wear stout gloves in case I get bitten, and often have to distract an xlr cable with my left hand while trying to unplug it with my right.

@superfitzy День назад

The LS60 are in Portugal. An informative and entertaining video, as always. Just chiming in to express my sincere appreciation for your mentions of Talk Talk in your last couple of videos. Hoping this exposes more of your audience to their work, particularly their later material.

@RJ_DSRider 2 дня назад

The sound effect you used to mask whatever frequency you said instead of *28hz was the synth from the beginning of Bizarre Love Triangle. Unmistakable! Lol

@anthonystephenson7659 День назад

Glad I'm not the only nerd who picked up on that 😆

@joelharmon1839 День назад

The LS60s are in Portugal!!! I enjoyed yet another great review! Thanks!

@bassandtrebleclef 2 дня назад

Very interesting review, especially at the very end when you talk about what speaker design or size tends to work best for this room. had a similar challenge with finding the right size speaker for my mixed space, and finally rested on a slim dynaudio tower because that's what sounded best.

@gerhardreinecke3945 2 дня назад

That turntable... wow. Review incoming I hope 🙂

@nilocp5684 День назад

“The LS60 are in Portugal” …Another fantastic review as always! These all in one streaming active speakers are becoming more and more appealing as the technology advances. At this price point, I would love to see a comparison done between these and the active streaming Elipson W35xi …fingers crossed 🤞 Thanks @DarkoAudio for your continued quality RU-vid content! Cheers from 🇨🇦

@suawq 2 дня назад

The LS60s have ditched the studio and jetted off to Portugal, sipping port wine and working on their tan while the rest of us toil away in the audio lab.

@OzSteve 2 дня назад

Great video as always. LOVE 'good' JBL sound (I love my old SVA-2100's still to this day) Would love for you to list those tracks in the description 😃 "The LS60 are in Portugal"

@johnpischedda6951 2 дня назад

Thanks John, there is something special about large stand mounts! I definitely like the idea of the inputs going into the master speaker rather than both. I also love the JBL blue baffle with wood surround, I agree the stands let them down a little. On aesthetics, in my opinion the best looking active at the moment has to go to the Super Wax Mini by Pitt & Giblin, drop dead gorgeous, I'm hoping to get a demo soon. The LS60 are in Portugal. Obrigado !

Since we are talking Future-Fi (love the term!), I am curious about your take on the JBL’s vs the also tested Dynaudio Focus 30’s. Great video’s and also loving the podcasts!!

The LS60s are in Portugal. Thanks for another great video John, but sticking with my Mission 770s 😊

@AllboroLCD 2 дня назад

Love how you slipped Bizzare Love Triangle in there! Age of consent or Ceremony are my New Order jams. Also, I do not believe that HDMI has been widely adopted in a studio environment, a place where these JBL's were meant to do their business.

I have far too much electronic and indie rock in my collection thanks to John😂 So this episode’s mix was refreshing. The LS60s are in Portugal!

@318ishonk 2 дня назад

Thanks for mentioning the music you listened to. Ever so often I find gems that I love to bits! Add-on to this video: - The JBL 4329P are also available in white - The Buchardt comparison might be rather A10 (also having digital amps/ PowerDACs) than A500 in my opinion - I agree that the compression tweeter and classic ported paper cone woofer are a refreshing alternative to the Buchardts or passive speakers that are lively - JBL could easily scale this speaker up to a 12 inch + big horn (still two-way) with the same electronics. We'll see if they ever do.

@michaeldina1103 2 дня назад

I really appreciate you sharing the music you used for testing. I’m trying to expand my music library. The Ls60 are in Portugal. Edit: Also I appreciate your comment about large stand mount speakers being a category unto their own and being superior to the other two kinds in some spaces.

@dexterdog1999 День назад

LS60's are in Portugal. Thanks for the video.

@joostw-69 2 дня назад

Very nice review. Still very happy with my DA Focus 30XD. Yes, they are only analog, digital or wireless in. For my set-up that work great in combination with a Linn Akurate DSM. The DSM gives me all inputs/outputs I need, with just one coax cable going to the Dyns. O, the Keff’s went south 😁

@tomunderwood6948 День назад

@christophernoto 2 дня назад

The LS are in Portugal. At least, that’s what I’m hearing… Thanks for the video, John. I may never buy an active speaker any more expensive than the little Bluetooth unit in my bathroom, but I like to know what’s going on in the world. Now that my Klipsch Forte IVs are broken in, I’ll probably stick with them for the foreseeable future. 🎉

@totallymorpheus 2 дня назад

The LS60s are in Portugal - although I think they should be in my living room in Pretoria, South Africa 😂

@gregoryeiding5395 День назад

The LS60 are in Portugal… wish they would do an active version of the retro look. Would love an l82 classic active with those quadrax foam grilles!

@start-again 2 дня назад

The LS60 are in Portugal !! AND --- A query: Which powered (and maybe streaming) speaker you tested that does provide a more forward midrange, where you mention the JBLs lacking? While also, hopefully, not compromising much on dynamics, base response and treble detail. Obviously in some non-linear (haha) combination of those factors. No "perfect" speaker exists. Thanks. Will appreciate reading your thoughts.

@chrisdenny7832 2 дня назад

Were the Genelecs calibrated? And maybe give your thoughts on Genelecs approach to room calibration.

@danmarjenka6361 2 дня назад

"The LS60's are in Portugal." Great review, as always.

@rankenfile День назад

I do like a speaker with dynamic ability. BTW, The LS60 are in Portugal. As a bit of nostalgic fun (for your room), try a pair of ADS L810's with your favorite amp/DAC etc. Use your speaker stands and be pleased.

@SparK17299 2 дня назад

awesome review and awesome speakers. To be honest, I'm still a little bit anxious about the reliability of such packed speakers. I know, if my separate compononet brakes down then I'm left without music as well, but at least less shipping costs. Maybe a question for a 10 more thoughts video? hehe thanks for the review edit: The LS60s are in Portugal

@IRON_PANDA День назад

The impressive dynamics are definitely part of the JBL's "house sound". My HDI-1600's are a definite showstopper material (for the price) on this department for sure. Especially the punch of the spearkers is *chef's kiss*.

@bitterandjaded_ 2 дня назад

Do any active streaming speakers have a headphone jack? There’s a hell of a case to be made for system in a box, and maybe if I wasn’t already heavily invested in mix and match separates I’d want to go that way. But I like having my main system support my headphone habit as well, either on a separate amp or from my pre. Not everyone has the LS60 in Portugal.

First of all, the LS60s are in Portugal! Good review, John, of a cool and convenient product. A little pricey though, and I agree with you on the shabby remote/short interconnect cable issue; unacceptable for a 4 grand product! BTW, really dig that Thorens, looks like an old broadcast ‘table…..👍

For the people who wait patiently for an all in one. HDF cabinets with a great transducer choice complimented with hi end cross overs. Then coupled with high end class D amplification. All bundled with the software to make living without extra gear easy? I’ll keep waiting and watching the offerings. This is an evolutionary period in component building. How great do you make it without being better than single components.
