Hello,
I'm new to the board - great to see all of the expertise out here on the network.
I have a pair of JBL L100a speakers that I purchased in 1973 when Uncle Sam saw fit to send me to southeast asia. (Not much fun, but at least I got some stereo equipment out of the deal.)
I have been using my JBL's full time for 31 years now and they are in perfect shape other than the famous foam grille problem. Recently I have been watching ebay and thinking about picking up another pair.
The one thing I noticed is that every pair I see is a L100 - while mine are L100a. My original documentation says L100a. My faceplates on the speaker say L100a. The original PX price list for all of the JBL products says L100a. I can see absolutely no differnece between my L100a and the L100.
Does anybody here know what the difference is? Was it just a marking issue because they were sold thru Uncle Sam's PX? I've searched this forum and the lansing heritage site and come up with no hits for "L100a".
Hope somebody here knows the answer - I'll sleep better at night.
Thanks in advance,
