Best JBL's you have heard


I have a pair of highly regarded speakers that sell in the $4,000 price range. Several months ago I purchased a pair of JBL L200B's off Audiogon. I am amazed at the sound quality of the JBL's. Comparing both speakers back and forth, the 200's more than hold their own. I have two questions: first, is it just me or have any of you had similiar experiences with vintage speakers, and second, what are the best JBL speakers you have heard?

I had a pair of vintage J220A's and I am a little remorseful after letting them go. I have not had a two-way, before or since, that you could air out all day like those little JBL's.

I still have a pair of HLS 620's (well, my stepson has 'em). Newer, kinda' chintzy, but still with that in-your-face rock presentation. I had a friend with a pair of L100's back in the day - I guess those were the best JBL's that I've ever heard.
