2 JBL Model 2440 Compression Drivers & Horns 4" Voice Coils Tested Works! L.A,Calif.Up for auction are a pair (2) of massive, professional speakers/monitors, made in the USA, by the leader in the field of sound reproduction: JBL!!!Recently tested, about the best speakers I have ever heard, and I have heard many hundreds!!!  The sound quality of these JBL compression drivers is exceptional: the midrange has great presence, each instrument has its' own location, and the highs are crystalline, with no audible distortion, whatsoever!  So much more information was present that the CD I use for testing sounded much different than I have ever heard it before.  These qualities mark these monitors as audiophile extreme quality equipment. Here's what JBL has to say about these massive drivers: Model 2440 is a massive professional quality compression driver built to typical JBL standards of precision.  It has a four inch voice coil and an Alnico V magnetic structure weighing more than 23 lbs.  It can take the most explosive transients in stride, and reproduce them at thunderous levels with flawless accuracy. Mathematically determined phasing plugs are machined concentric exponential horns to eliminate phase cancellations.  Magnetic assemblies are cast and machined to hold tolerances considered impractical by industry standards.  Diaphragms of aluminum alloy a pneumatically drawn to shape to eliminate crystal stresses that cause fatigue.  After manufacture, the frequency response of each driver is tested and a peak or dip in response means it is rejected.   Model 2440 is ideally suited for critical sound reinforcing applications in large rooms.  Its high efficiency and power capacity permit unparalleled dynamic range.  Its flat response means that greater gain before acoustic feedback can be attained. Pick-up is much preferred, and allows the bidder/buyer to inspect/test/listen before bidding/buying.  Otherwise, these will weigh about 150-175 lbs., when boxed and packed, and be very oversized, therefore, s/h/i w/i the contiguous USA, will run about $249.99, via Greyhound.  International bidders, I can ship all but the horns via USPS, please contact me for a shipping quote, before bidding.   Please contact me for my only payment option (not paypal) for pick-up/delivery.A note about shipping expense.  eBay/PayPal charges a final value fee of 15-20%, not only on shipping, but tax, too! Additional shipping expenses: packaging, driving the item to the shipper, actual shipping cost (which have risen recently), and, if international or media, waiting in line at the USPS for 15-45 minutes.  So if the shipping looks a little high, please remember - I never see 15-20% of the shipping I ask for.Normally, I have made nearly all of my auctions with 14 day return guarantee.  However, eBay has recently begun a "defects or return" requirement.  Which states that only so many returns (whether for defects or not) will be allowed a seller, per year.  When combined with eBay's rule allowing a buyer to return for no reason at all (buried deep inside the user agreement), this is a recipe for disaster.  Liberal returns, will no longer be considered by sellers.  I will reduce the 14 day guarantee auctions which I post.  Now buyers will not have the return guarantees, and the sellers will be sanctioned, for allowing too many returns.  Therefore, eBay has, once again, promulgated rules which do not help either the buyer or seller, and only make both buyers and sellers look for alternative sites.  Even in a no return auction, the buyer is still covered, if the item materially differs from the description.I FOLLOW ALL EBAY POLICES AND STRIVE FOR 5-STAR SERVICE EACH AND EVERY TRANSACTION.
