Strangely enough, some of you find and admit that putting 6 or 8 thousand dollars in a studio monitor or even much more for some sota speakers not much bigger is a normal thing...not me
I listened for a long time to some of them (8C/Kii) and although they are excellent, they are still small boxes limited in SPL and the listening format is not at all the same. It's as if you went from your home with your 55" oled flat screen to a cinema with speakers like the 4367. (I exaggerate hardly) to finish and it is for me the essenciel, they are all very far from having the lightning dynamics of 4367.
On the other hand, yes like all the speakers the 4367 make compromises we saw here in particular on the off-axis response. But if one day you listen to them, do not expect to listen to the same thing as another speaker that also has a good spinorama like revel or this type of speakers.
Among the best (closer to what I think of them) description I've read about the 4367 there is this one. of GREG TIMBER.
"The 4367 is a good system for those who like the large Monitor format. It measures well, sounds detailed and musical but is lean in the bottom octave as are all of the post 1985 or so "Japan" product. The speed and excess excursion capacity of these systems makes them good candidates for EQ, or for the proper use of a subwoofer, say below 40 Hz. They do have a "live music" sound that is most difficult to achieve purely with direct radiators. If you are looking for an Audiophile loudspeaker with 3-dimensional imaging, a warm mellow midrange and no dynamics at all, look elsewhere. Without using the words Distilled Water you might look at another Harman brand if you are seeking elegant, luscious elevator music."""http://www.audioheritage.org/vbulletin/showthread.php?37662-JBL-4367-first-listen/page6
