On the L-88's
seller's story (and I did believe him) was ...
"Dad bought 4 of them new (late 70's) for his QUAD system. When he passed, I took 1 pair and hooked them
to my guitar amp. Immediately blew a tweeter. Sold that pair cheap. These are the survivors. Where are those boxes ?"

Got a pair of these off of the bay. Now I get to put them together. The woofer foam surrounds and the grille foam (similar to the L100) all are pretty much intact.

it seems like every CLister coming to my place wants toob gear , so today I grabbed a mono amp. Looks to be in good shape.
also a 1966 Dead poster. Far as I can tell , it MAY be original

I started noticing that the tweet with the cracked dia (repaired with superglue) was raspy at higher gain levels , so I tried a little harder to find my 2 spare 044Ti's.
For 2 months, no luck locating. Yesterday while looking for the Hafler pre, I found a box on top of the pile marked 044ti , just where they should be and marked correctly.
Of course, replacing the HF isn't quite so easy. It is back mounted . remove the LF and wires. get arm between port tube and MF box to catch driver as you unscrew from the front, and vv to install.
It was worth the effort, they sound great now. I think they are my fave bookshelf.

I went on speaker safari last Monday and brought home a box, but not the kind I was looking for.
I bought my workhorse PC in 2003...a Dell P4,3 Ghz , 200 gb drive , 1 gb ram. Have slowly upgraded components and it has soldiered on pretty well until the power supply croaked 3 months back.
Switched over to my Vaio laptop = core duo , 4gb ram, 320 hd, 19 in screen. It's been nice.
So in the thrift store the "computer guy" is bringing the new stock out to the glass case. I'm standing there and he remarks "this black one here is the biggest, baddest PC that we've ever had"
There was a beautiful black Antec case ..he had noted some specs on a label ....Intel i5 2500K, quad core ....(the K is significant as it means the CPU is NOT speed locked). 8gb ram , 400 gb hard drive , lots of USB 2 & 3 ports , optical o/p, firewire, gigabit Ethernet, 7.1 audio, Plextor fast (24x) DVD burner , nice ASUS mb, super quiet .... I figure it for maybe 2 years old...for $100. (That's not too much more than reviving my 12 y.o. Dell.)
the cpu is clocked at 3.3 Ghz , but many reports say it runs fine on air cooling at 4.3
(faster than an i7)
case is beautiful. had to buy it. have W7 up and running. gonna move the hd from old box over too.

got it running at 4 ghz
moved HD from old Dell ...650GB inside, 3TB external
Gigabit ethernet is fast.
shared ram gives 2gb memory for video
back to a 24 inch screen , surprising how much bigger it is than the laptop's 19
whisper quiet
LightScribe Plextor DVD burner
USB audio through external DAC sounds great going to amp with ESS speakers
still loading it up.
Oh yeah ...I ran into the thrift's PC guy again. Asked how he had priced it. Says GW gives him a pricing guide,
but this one was too new and not on the list.
He would have put $300 or more, but GW won't allow him to price at higher than 100 , no matter what it is ..
Some kind of happiness is measured out in miles
Finally done building the PC .... running at 4.4 Ghz , sucker is fast
Like Steve McQueen
All I need's a fast machine
about to switch over to the new Gigbit gateway , things should get even
better online.
Flashed to bios that's 2 newer . Installed Realtec drivers , sound is great.
My Firefox is setup to not run Flash, so Pandora wouldn't work , so I switched
the streams over to Chrome and that setup seems even better . No problem
running 2 browsers.

.
so a guy and his wife come over for TT belt about 3 weeks ago ...I'm fitting one and look over
and she is fondling my 250ti's. It was late , so I didn't demo them (plus NOT for sale)
then she looked at the 120's
got this email last night from them:
"If you ever want to sell either pair of your teak JBL's. Give me a hollar I would cherish them and give them a great home."
It happens to me all the time, but I find the young chicks really dig that black ash look!
