Vintage JBL Floor Standing Speakers


I'd like to get a pair of old JBLs.  Any recommendations?

Thank you.

I just purchased L112's.  Got a great deal and I am in the process of re-doing them.  I am a little bit of a speaker nut as I think I have approximately 12 pair at the house.   Always an AR fan.  But I will admit that JBL has my utmost respect as a leader in speaker design and innovation during the golden years of audio.   This is my second pair of L112's and I am simply amazed at the amount of sound that comes out of them.   They are just fun.  Currently they are set up with AR 12's and Mirage M3si's.  Each of those in their own right do things very well, but the JBL's are just a little more "fun" to listen to.  My new ones, I believe, are in need of a re-cap as I hear a little strain at louder volumes that I don't think would be there with fresh caps.   I would love to one day own a pair of L45's just to hear them.  But the L112's are just hard to beat for size, sound, and all of the music they play well.
