Are the new JBL L100 really that good/worth $4k?
Jul 7, 2021 · One little hint - if you like the L100 Classic's sound but balk at the $4K asking price (I did!) check out the 4312G Control Monitor. Weighs just a few pounds lighter (a bit less internal cabinet bracing) comes finished in the standard JBL black as opposed to walnut veneer and sculptured foam grille, has a woofer that's just a little lighter ...

As you. probably already know, a very popular speaker back in the day, and very. sought after if in anywhere near decent shape, driver re-coning is an issue. but whatever, it's just maintance.

Amp Recommendation for new JBL L100s - Steve Hoffman Music …
Sep 6, 2021 · 90db is highly efficient, perhaps, why JBL says the L100's can be enjoyed from a 20 watt amp. I have powered my 8 ohm L100t3's with amps delivering 5o to 560 watts per channel and I've got to tell ya I had no perception that 50 watts was too …
KLH Fives vs JBL L100's - Audiokarma Home Audio Stereo …
Feb 2, 2022 · Things I loved from the 60's and 70's. Subscriber. Feb 2, 2022. #1. I own a pair of KLH Fives and a pair of JBL L-88P speakers upgraded to L100’s.

jbl l65 jubal vs. jbl l100 - Audiokarma Home Audio Stereo …
Apr 21, 2009 · JBL describes the L16 and L26 in a 1974 brochure as "economy and beauty in compact bookshelf loudspeakers". The L36 as "The leader of the Decade family". The Decade series was designed to compete at specific pricepoints. all below that of the L100. I believe that the L100 and members of the 4311/4312 family would represent "a step up".
JBL L26 vs L36 and L100 - Audiokarma Home Audio Stereo …
Apr 12, 2008. #2. i can see how advent and other eastcoast speaker fans may prefer L26 over L100. L100 can sound boomy at the bottom and too sharp at the top, and too colored overall if you're used to two way speakers like advent or klh. sometimes ever popular dynaco A25's are little too much for me.
JBL L100 vs. JBL L112 - Audiokarma Home Audio Stereo Discussion …
Nov 3, 2012. #2. Yeah they are quite different. The L100 has more "classic" value and usually sells for more, but is an older speaker using older tech components compared to the L112. Among the biggest differences are the tweeter. The L112 uses the 044 dome tweeter while the L100 uses an older paper cone tweeter.
JBL Century L-100's or L-112's? - Audiokarma Home Audio Stereo ...
May 3, 2007 · The L-112, though I have heard them, were well after my time as a JBL repair tech. I claim no familiarity with that particular driver. However, I replaced, re-coned, and worked on many L-100 and 4311's drivers. The bass emphasis in the L-100 was designed in, from recording studio tech’s request for such a “hump” in the response curve of ...
HPM-100 vs JBL L100? - Audiokarma Home Audio Stereo …
Dec 26, 2011 · Compared to my recapped and modified JBL L-80T3, the HPM-100 definitely play louder at the same volume setting. I will be conducting more tests once I recap the HPM-100 and add some more acoustic insulation. I haven’t heard the JBL-100, however from my point of view I will keep the speakers that I have.
JBL L100 & L100 Century differences - Audiokarma Home Audio …
Mar 19, 2010 · Northridge would be later. Binding posts might offer a clue too. Twist-lock style would be later than spring-loaded. Correct. The speakers marked "Century" have Los Angeles and the speakers with just L100 are Northridge which dates them after late '78 I guess. BTW: both speakers have the spring loaded binding posts.
