    It seems like the 4311's , 4310's and L100's are in the background of more old studio photos than any other JBL. Keith Richards actually mentions JBL speakers a couple of times in his book.

    I would bet that a lot of JBL customers in the 60's and 70's were not rock fans. The alternative to JBL and the other "high efficiency" speaker companies back then were speakers that were pretty...

    Maybe it's a matter of prefering a 3 way over a 4 way. I too have found that some times I like the the older 3 ways better. Maybe the L220 would be a good speaker for you to try.

    The L65's are one of my favorite JBL's and they sound ok to good but the L110's sound excellent in my opinion.

    Buying a pair of L65 cabinets on Ebay is a risk because it is very likely that they will be damaged at least a little in shipment. That is a nice looking pair though.

    I sort of think that the LE20 sounded a little better but the LE25 would handle more power or take more abuse. The surrounds were different on them.

    Who sells the correct foam for 126A's?

    I was wondering if anyone knows who sells the correct foam for a pair of 126A woofers out of a pair of L65 Jubals. I want to avoid getting the foam that has a larger roll than the original stuff.
