Hi,
I live in England and have used JBL speakers since 1976. Currently I am driving a pair of 1980 L150s with a McIntosh MC252.
These speakers are in a desperate need of a rebuild as I'm sure you guys can imagine. I am not sure wether it is worth the time, effort and difficulty (some parts no longer available!) or wether I should get some new speakers.
At the moment the only choice of model over here is either E100 or Array 1400. The Arrays will be about $20 000 if they are costing $12 500 in the States. This is too much for my bank, so its either fix the 150s or get the E100s (and hope that I won't blow them up).
Is there any news from JBL about any new models this year in the 300W range? Something comparable to the 150s would be ideal. The K2 series are the perfect ones I suspect, but they will be about the price of a small apartment over here!
