My brother has a pair bought new in 1975 when they still had a lifetime warranty. I’ve been suggesting that he get the crossovers and foam replaced for free but guess they still sound fine to him.
JBL L100 Classic 75's - Thoughts, Impressions, Serial Numbers
Hey everyone,
I recently took delivery on a pair of JBL L100 Classic 75’s. I love the look of these and what I’ve been able to experience so far. This is the first pair of JBL’s I’ve owned in my audio journey. Most of my time in the hobby has been with smaller bookshelves plus a sub (2.1). I was curious who on the board has a pair of these and what your thoughts were? How do they compare to other speakers you’ve had? Also curious what serial numbers are out there.I’m in the US and my pair is pair #264.

Nothing wrong with JBL. I still have my 4319 (big) monitors and was thinking of something else until I took them off their low, raked back stands and put them up on some stools and viola!, big time transformation. I thought I always had enough distance to align myself with the tweeter and mid range but I was wrong. I'll be getting my Wharfedale Linton speaker stands tomorrow to complete things and enjoy what I've been missing all this time. I figure that I'll be about midway between the tweeter and midrange with the stands. All the best, |
That's awesome @nonoise! I may try that down the road. I still feel like I haven't gotten to hear mine yet. I took delivery on them and didn't worry too much with placement etc because we were moving, we moved, took me a while to get everything situated and now, I have a ear infection haha. Really looking forward to getting in to these soon though.

@willg1985 , If it's not one thing, it's another. Soon you'll be enjoying your speakers and experimenting with placement and then all will be well with the world. All the best, |
