Title: Great product while it works
Review: As others have indicated, this unit is fantastic when it's working. The problem is this unit is highly unreliable. I've had mine for approx 3 years and the unit has failed twice. The first failure was the power supply, which was replaced at my cost at a local service center. Now the unit apparently has a problem with the circuitry; it produces almost no sound, while the few decibels it does produce is nothing more than a distorted rattle (the cone is perfect). To make matters worse, my local service center is no more, and there are no service areas within a couple of hundred miles of my house. In order to find my "local" service center now, I get to place a long-distance call to JBL (no 800 phone number). No thanks. I've already spent $350 on a $250 unit only to have it fail again. I'll consider this a costly lesson in JBL's quality and customer service. Hopefully you're reading this as part of your homework before you make a purchase. I wish I had done that.
