The 70’s are back


And for only $4000 you can buy a brand new pair of JBL L100’s.

 I will have to hear them hooked to a Sansui receiver and pop in Led Zeppelin an 8 track.

Looking at the spec, those new L100s are mostly just look-a-likes compared to the vintage L100s.  I would be very surprised if they sound even remotely similar.  The in the originals, the woofer operated full range without crossover.  Only LF blocking caps on the mid and tweeter.  The cone tweeter only operated up to about 17 kHz.  That being said I heard many L100s back in the day and liked them a lot.  I bought a pair a few years ago for my bedroom system.  I preferred my vintage ADS L710 by a pretty wide margin, so I sold the L100s.
