Your Favorate JBL's from the 70's

Still use a mint pair of 4311B's that I got from a radio station. Bruce Swedien used a pair of 4310's for most of his mixes so if you like 70s music...

Started out with a set of L-26's in '75. Bought a set of L-166's while still serving in the military in '79. Tried a set of 4312's in the 90's. Now have Wilson's in the main system, a set of L-166's in the basement hooked up to a Marantz 2252 receiver with a Denon CDP. Listened to it the other day while doing a woodworking project. I was smiling.

Started with a pair of Lancer 44's and upgraded to lancer 99,s in the early 70's and kept them for about 6 years. Recently I bought another pair of L 99's and plan to pair them with my refurbished Mac 1500 and AR XA for my classic/retro system.

I absolutely love this thread. In the early 70's I had a pair of custom made JBL LE215A/ Janzens electrostatic speakers in my record store, Gorilla Records in Syosset NY. I used to have people come in and said they sounded good from two blocks away. I loved those speakers, and and was able to purchase duplicates about 5 years ago, which I am having re-surrounded now. I also have a pair of old JBL's with 16ohm LE15A's, passive radiators, LE85 horns (I Believe) and a pair of super tweeters that I added to the Olympus C-50 cabinets. They are still as good as anything I have ever heard, IMHO. Rock On.

Back in 1978 I had JBL L65 Jubals and a Pioneer receiver.
Never should have sold them.
Not because they sounded that good, but because of what they would sell for today.
