Any JBL L150A users out there?

I had a pair back in the 80s,he only JBL I ever owned. They are quite good, actually having a flat frequency response; most JBLs intentionally did not. I remember one of their more expensive ones [212 ?] had a 12 db variation.

I have been a JBL collector off and on over the years. I had the L150A, and they were pretty darn good. They will handle as much amp as you can throw at them, and then some. These had the aluminum dome tweeters in them that were a step up from the L150's, but they were still not all that great. The next generation of titanium tweeters were much better. As I remember, some of the JBL's that were bought overseas did have black as an option.Up to $500 would be worth it. I have heard L112's, and was not impressed. They need the other half of the cabinet that the 150's have-the woofer is just too big for the cabinet. I still love JBL, and own several pair including a mint pair of 4412 monitors, L220's and L5'. The newer speakers these days are much more sophisticated, and can sound better (I also own NOLA Boxers, which I love). But bang for the buck, JBL still rocks.

I bought a pair of those in the early 80's overseas on an Air Force base. I think they only sold the walnut version? I sure had some nice parties with those:) Titanium dome tweeter.

Detredwings, the silver 044 tweeter is NOT titanium. Even the black/gold domed 044-1 that ONLY came in the L250 was not either. The 044 is a phenolic dome with a vapor deposited aluminum coating. The later Ti series; 18ti,120ti,240ti and 250ti had a 044ti driver which still had an aluminum housing (like the 044 but different), and a titanium diaphragm. The later L"T" series; L20T,L60T,L80T,L100T, had the 035ti plastic faced driver which later changed to 035tia.

Thanks Krelladdict,

That may of just been how it was marketed at the time. I just remember that as one of it's attributes. I sold them in around 87. One thing to mention. The woofers had to be repaired under warranty. The rubber rotted and had to be replaced. I'm not sure if they have better parts now?
