go for grey JBL 1004 under 10K, and you'll never repent your decision..

Some people still recommend 75.4
If i choose to decide jbl, is 1004 better than 1004? Price wise, performance wise.

Also somebody please suggest a knowledgeable installer from gurgaon, which sells authentic stuff at genuine price. I am really irritated by those "chalta hai" type folks.

panky12345 · 14th December 2008, 18:39

How can 1004 be better than 1004? lol just kidding!

IF you can source 75.4, nothing's gonna beat it in price to performance ratio.

That was a typo funky. I meant to compare 75.4 with 1004. Still thanks for the affirmation.

Anyway, can anybody suggest me someone from whom I can I buy Kenwood or JBL.

panky12345 · 15th December 2008, 09:28

check with some of the authorised dealers for left over stock of 75.4.. or watch classifieds carefully.

15th December 2008, 12:49

But I have no idea where these dealers are.
I wonder why nobody from gurgaon replies.

If your requirment is not much i would suggest you can opt for the JBL GTO504 its a good potential amplifier,The problem with GT4 MK2 is you have gain control for the LPF but nothing to control for the HPF except the mhz switch.

Thanks for the reply jamie but honestly, I am a noob here. I am not sure about what u said :(

My requirement is highest possible SQ in the budget (some 5-6k but can be increased) and headroom for a sub at a later time.

15th December 2008, 13:14

@Jamie
Wow man, just checked the amp you sduggested
105dba snr :O

What'd be the grey price?

Also can i bridge two channels to drive a sub? Say gt5 12 incher ?

ramie2400 · 15th December 2008, 13:16

in your budget look around for the JBL GTO504 i can bet you wont be dissapointed even add the subwoofer at the later on stage

It has excellent tuning options.Looks sleek,smart and build quality is very nice.I would suggest you buy it with bill its MRP is Rs.9990/- but i am sure your dealer will give you a better discount over it

Yess you can bridge both A+B channel to drive 2 x Subwoofer's

Power Output: 55W RMS x 4 Channels at 4 Ohms 70W RMS x 4 Channels at 2 Ohms
Signal-to-Noise (dBA): 105dBA (reference rated power into 4 ohms)
THD: 0.02% (rated power at 4 ohms)
Frequency Response: 10Hz - 100kHz (-3dB)
Dimensions: (L x W x H) 13-3/16" x 10-3/8" x 2-1/8"

Thanks for the exhaustive reply.

Any info on the grey prices?

'jamie' bhai gto504 is just 55*4 yea. usse accha to he will enjoy the 8401. atleast sound quality on the components is better than the jbl. also, the gto504 is highly overpriced considering its abilities. if spending almost 10k, then he might as well stretch a little and get a 1004/75.4!
