I emailed jbl about it and they blew me off.

I'd recommend the JBL On Stage II for several reasons: the material and build quality along with the attention to detail; the unique, eye-catching saucer design along with a handy, sensitive remote switch; "tight" audio, with exceptionally crisp treble frequencies and adequately deep but not boomy bass

I would recommend the JBL On-stage II for many reasons

JBL 2 is really nice for small spaces to play music

I cannot say its an outstanding amplifier but compared with the similar from other brands, the JBL is great
