   I have always had brute-force amplifiers such as the Citation 16, or 19, or   
   back in the day (and still today) AR electronics. So efficiency has never   
   really been an issue - the main speakers are Maggies after all, and in quite a   
   large room. The single    
   pair of JBL 100s I have heard - and not in my venue - set my teeth on edge.   
   The AR3as in the that same venue did not.    
      
   I am glad that you enjoy both sets of speakers, nor am I suggesting that JBL   
   speakers are "bad". Nor do I disagree with you on any one speaker is any more   
   suitable for any given type of music than any other. But the JBLs are not to   
   my taste.
