Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: Bass for days...

Is there a question here or are you just doing a little boasting about the fact that you are running an MP3 player through what sounds like a small public address system JBL E-140 is a musical instrument (bass) and sound re-enforcement loudspeaker of very high sensitivity so 4 of them being fed their rated 200 wrms each must make you very popular with your neighbors.

Sorry about the sarcasm but I responded to this posting because no one else had.
You won't get much response spouting the praises of the sound of your MP3 player, even with over 800 watts behind it. Most members consider themselves audiophiles of one sort or another and they like to talk about hi-fi gear. MP3 files are compressed, limiting their band-width and dynamic range so they sound very clean and very punchy but I wouldn't call them hi-fi.
I'm not knocking the technology. For what they are, they are great. I use one when traveling, cutting the grass, cycling etc. but compared to listening to the real deal at home: they're not even close.
To each his own though. If your system pleases you, then that is all that really matters and I mean that. Don't let guys like me deter you from your pursuits.
