You can go home again

Not for me. In the 70’s, I had the JBL L100A speakers. Good but overbearing bass and the highs were way too bright. Also, it was too much in your face. I had to back way off on the treble. I bought the new L100 Classics last December. Although the speakers look the same, the sound is much different. No more overbearing bass and the highs are so much better, a totally different speaker that looks like the original.

I never would have bought the new pair if they sounded like the old. Thank God they don’t.

 "No. But "we" do jump to unwarranted conclusions, don't "we"?"


A question isn't a conclusion.

JBL 100 the dream of 70s teens.

I never liked the L100s so no, I'm not pursuing that sound.
And I've heard many of them since they were once ubiquitous.

I dreaded when a customer wanted to listen to the L100's. When they were done listening I would wait for them to make the first comment to see which way the audio wind was blowing. Just Bad Loudspeaker. Glad they updated the sound.
