    Good Question!

    For whatever reason, it has become increasingly difficult to purchase JBL speakers, from what I can see. For example, I am interested in the Project Array series speakers, and ran a search on the JBL...

    Sure would of been helpful if JBL had put their logo on the diaphragms, or their part number. Not always possible of course, but on compression driver diaphragms, the plastic mounting ring sure could...

    What did you expect for the price? I will again say they were not half bad. They had real binding posts and film caps in the X-overs, things that cannot be said for some original L series speakers....

    I vote for edgewound VCs and the use of aluminum in them, compression drivers, alnico, and if appropriate, ring radiator diaphragms.

    An off topic ramble that some might find interesting.

    The vacuum cleaner technique is dangerous on tweeters IMO, due to their delicate nature. Any decent amount of suction could pull the entire diaphragm to much and damage the surround/suspension, if...

    IMO, the L110 or L110A would rate above an L36 and L100. The former two certainly have a more high-tech crossover with better parts, and better drivers than the latter two. JBL marketed the L110 as...
