JBLs: quality then vs. quality today?
my friend and i were discussing my L100s and L200s that i bought during college days in the early '70s and got to wondering how they stack up against modern, high end speakers
neither of us have kept up with technological advances in the speaker business....
for the sake of argument, on a scale of 1 to 10, if my JBLs were, say, an 8 back then, where would they rank today, compared to what's available today?
thanx.....
Talk about going Off Topic!

Viva la Revolution.
Fortunately for us, even cheesy copper colored speakers will last for years with a bit of care and the odd refoam.
