"My ears were trained on my old JBL."
Recent comment from another post. Do we presently chase a sound baked in our brain from our initial experience with audio?

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.
