Greetings all.

I am replacing a fried system with a vintage componants as a new hobbie. I am basically clueless but have been learning through different forums here and there.

Before I knew what I was really doing I purchased the L46s just becuase they were in the price range and seemed cosmetically OK. And, what little I did know was that JBL made good speakers. That is basically it. Then, I got a little "bid happy" and purchased the 4301Bs just in case they sounded good too. Only after reading the various forums did I discover that I did a "good thing."

I have had the L46s for about a week and the 4301Bs should arrive in the next couple of days. The L46s are a jaw dropping step up from my old Advent 1002s. But, because of space (my home office) only one can prevail. My question is which of the two speakers is the most durable and will give me less trouble. Which of the two speakers are easier to maintain and repair should it be needed. I like to "feel" my music.

Best Wishes
