Title: Should be recalled
Review: We purchased JBL PB12 subwoofer June 2001 for $390. In July 2002 (barely after warranty period expired) there was a pop and then unit failed to get power. The unit wasn't even being used at the time and had surge protections in place. "Dead part - Amp module" replacement cost $165 and took four months to complete. Another pop and failure occurred this week November 2003, with less than one year of use after repair. We do not "crank up" the volume, nor have we ever pushed the limits of the unit. From reading multiple other reviews online, it is obvious that a significant portion of the product units are defective because they all have the same repetitive problem. Will attempt to resolve issue with manufacturer this coming week, but reading online documentation of people's past experience with lack of appropriate response from JBL is discouraging.
