JBL L112

I have a stupid analogy...when you buy a set of speakers it's like buying a car with no engine in it.The sensitivity of the speaker is like the weight of the car...if you want to go fast and quick...buy the appropriate amp..

FYI..I come from a racing background...

Another vote for keeping them. Similar story for a pair of JBL L200 t3’s w/ the “baby butt” tweeters I got a couple years ago. With a modest tube amp they sound really good. I’m fortunate to have some storage space so it’s a mix of modern and vintage for me. 

I know is this is off-topic, but this JBL talk has me wondering/lusting about JBL’s new 75th anniversary Class-G SA750 Integrated.  Anybody heard one? Built-in in MM/MC, DAC + Streamer, Dirac,…. Supposedly designed as a companion to the L100 speakers.
 

Oh, IMHO, and keep the 112’s.

i’ve owned the 4311s since they were new in 1973 or so. Along the way I’ve upgraded from Kenwood to Crown to McIntosh. Most recently going from the 275 to the 452 early last year. Two months ago I auditioned the new L100’s and less than 10 minutes later I ordered them. Two caveats: First, make sure that you have a room that is long enough to support that incredible woofer. Secondly, don’t skimp on the power. 

I have a pair of L112s that I got in ~'89 from the original owner, refoamed correctly once by OCS.  They sit in the family room and never get played.
