Car Audio

JL Audio @ The Palms: The International CES, Las Vegas 2015

I visited JL Audio way up high in the sky in the single most glamorous location I have ever been in, in that city. Fully ten grand a night, (last year’s prices!) with a bent-Lexan-surrounded plunge swimming pool that sticks OUT OVER THE GROUND at thirty two floors into the sky. It is two storeys deep and has its own small internal lift as well as a bar. It is intended to entertain a good few guests at once. As last year, JL Audio had laid out their stuff to show it off and as well as the marine kit becoming truly hench you shoulda HEARD those wakeboard enclosures roar they have finished the arc of the MicroSub. What was a six in a tiny box that made you boggle, became an eight. Then two of eachand now they are active. Amplified with a clever new sort of device to get best power from a not particularly beefed up electrical system in a ‘˜normal’ car’, these are set to be another game changer.

Meanwhile, here is that view. I lifted my camcorder over the barrier with a fourteen-foot lift which is my reach of eight foot six plus my Manfrotto lightweight tripod all stretched-out! Note GJ shamelessly video-bombing me. I admit I experienced a momentary thought of ‘˜shall I start again?’

This Bluetooth button style system controller was cute and again would be ace for mad SPL system use in the UK.
