    Since this thread is about value, I need to point out that you'll get more $$ ( especially when selling on eBay ) if you post pics that are right-side-up .

    Yes, Yes I will

    This antiquated software... My pics are right side up, for some reason rotate when I add them in, and I didnt want to spend the time for this venue...

    For the final result, I will ensure that I do the "MCM" JBL's justice!

    Congratulations!

    I'd love a pair... but then I'd need another room in the house where I could put them.
    Oh well, a guy can dream.

    Post a pic or two when you get a chance.

    I've bought several pairs over the years and the most I've paid is $1,000. I love mine but they've been upgraded.

    I always wanted a pair.

    After the very first time I seen them, and heard them. And I've heard them in store brand new, and in friend's homes. And sure, paired with the goodies of the day, like one, the venerable Sansui 9090. And McIntosh as well.

    The description and adoration for such a speaker could take pages for myself and others I'm sure. But in a nutshell, when you fired up these speakers, and many others they made, what did you immediately recognize? That unmistakable lineage of the "JBL Sound"!

    It was a sound you were drawn to, and you wanted to hear.

    Quoting markd51: "It was a sound you were drawn to, and you wanted to hear."

    Yes they were hot and exciting. But there were exceptions...

    There was a guy (back in the Party Till You Puke) days of the mid 1970s who had two of them. He would haul them to parties all over town along with his turntable and a receiver with too little power output to provide any dynamics or headroom.
    Cranking them up to beyond clipping, they sounded as painfully obnoxious as conceivable, but what really set them out above the typical home stereo loudspeakers as PA loudspeakers was the very high SPL they put out. That, with the 80ish % clipping distortion, could just about take your head off.
    The guy thought they put out the greatest sound ever, but even if they did he would not have known it from sound of a worn out jackhammer with a thin blanket thrown over it. Totally clueless and probably close to deaf.
