Jbl- L65a

[infinityQ2]

Is there a difference between the L65 and L65A?? Why is there such a difference in the original MSRP $396-$681. Is the L65A better or more rare:blink:

The newer model is more money because of inflation. I am sure you will find the list price of a 1960 paragon much less than a 1980 one. I am not sure if there was any difference in the components between the two.

They did make some minor changes such as a different driver layout, different woofer and possibly different crossover in the later L65. They also dropped the Jubal name on the later ones. I agree though that the increase in price was due to inflation or marketing.

That's 20 years, obviously inflation would be a factor. I'm talking about the MSRP when they first came out, the L65 and L65A were only 2-3 years apart, and almost double the price, just does't make sense...:banghead:

During the same period the L200/L200B went from $657 to $1,107. According to the LH library, both the L200 and the L65 had a 47% price increase from 1976 to 1977, as did nearly every speaker in the JBL model lineup.

Differant driver configuration, XO, & differant woofer. I own the A version.
