Recommendations to replace JBL L-50
Hello all -
I am undergoing an overhaul of my audio setup, and recently replaced a Yamaha CA-1000 with a Yamaha A-S2000. The amp is paired with a set of JBL L-50s. I’m sure speaker technology has improved somewhat in the last 40 years, and I’m interested in entertaining something in the JBL camp that would pair well with the new Yamaha.
The setup is audio-only (2.0 stereo preferred). Music style is primarily early 70s prog/rock, so think Genesis, King Crimson, Jethro Tull, early Journey, Wishbone Ash, Gentle Giant, Pink Floyd, etc. Clarity is important to me; proper separation of sounds (not muddy sounding), solid but not overwhelming bass. I like to be able to listen to the music as it was intended to be heard by the the band, and not manipulated by the system.
Anyway, I appreciate any and all feedback, and understand that everything is subjective when it comes to these sorts of things. Budget is under $2,000 USD if at all possible. Would love to keep it JBL if it makes sense.
Thanks in advance for the suggestions!
