Recapturing the JBL L100 Century

Yes, some of the newer JBL horn designs have caught my eye, but have not heard.

If you feel you can't live without the sound of vintage JBL L100 Centurys, take a look at Craigslist. You'll find everything from original condition to restored. My guess is that they will sound closer than anything else. But my best advice is to audition some of the newer designs at about the same price range as the JBLs. If you're still not satisfied, look around for used early JBL systems, like the 001 or S7s. The L100s will pale in comparison.

Mapman: I urge you to go and listen to them then. You just might be very satisfied with the results. You can't go wrong, imo. Out of the 3, it is said that the 1400 Array is the best bang for the buck. I didn't get those because of the assembly required. If you don't mind that, then check that one out first and go from there. There's good deals out there on the high end JBLs as well. I got one myself on the S4700s I currently use.

I love the l100s

Drubin, I reckon I've been laid in excess of 4,000 times in my life - I think I've done okay...
