How about "The Sound & The Fury"?

Fortunately, my evaluation of recorded and reproduced sound does not rotate on digital or analog sources. It's anchored in American Bandstand's exquisite Rate-A-Record theorem: "It's got a good beat...

My tech instructor in 1972 preached "keep one hand in your pocket when working on tube equipment."
I have the same reception issues with the fillings in my teeth. I hate it when that happens.
The attached L100T tech sheet may prove useful. I've found my L100t pair to be a nice balance of size and sound. Replacement tweeters and mids come up on eBay regularly. Although if I were looking...

I've been playing and buying vinyl since 1977 and haven't stopped. Working in a record store while attending college in that era will do that to you. I've bought and sold and moved various turtables...
Although this question runs counter to hjames sage observation about not going where JBL didn't go before in speaker design/modification -- I have to ask in the interest of using some spare parts I...
I've been using Collectors Frenzy for months for another data point on vinyl sales. I expected and found some of my 10-inch jazz records from the '50s to be at $100 and up (Blue Note or Emarcy or...
My first Yamaha CA-600 integrated amp in 1977 initiated me to their variable loudness control (Fletcher-Munson curves) and I have never given it up. I still use the amp daily - plus a Yamaha CR-820...
I paid $50.00 for an almost mint pair of L20T, but that was a couple of years ago off of Craigslist. I've seen them from $100 -- $150. I use mine as my desktop computer speakers.
RIP Mr. Brubeck. A jazz innovator and icon. What a productive life he had!
Welcome! What a great audio start you had; there are far worse obsessions to have been raised up around (like golf, for instance <G>). You have come to the right place to further JBL obsessiveness.

Now, that cracked me up!
Fabulous work (and patience), and a thorough description of your work. Congrats on your skills; they are inspiration to those of us with speaker projects waiting for us to start.

Re: 400WPC Sunfire + L250
This quote about horsepower from the late, great Carroll Shelby seems applicable: "If some is good, more is better. And too much is just enough!"
Mr. Widget: Outstanding! Congrats. Here's my entry for a personalized new/old ad slogan for you and your beautiful speakers: "The JBL Everest DD66000, ask the man who has a pair!
I can only speak of the 2214H in a pair of stock L100t -- it has plenty of bass for my needs in that cabinet. $250.00 is on the low side for a pair of them, at least in my experience of searching for...
Time to Turn It Up! to celebrate.
