    You'll have to define the dimensions of your bank.....

    Sounds like you are aiming for something with a 15" and compression drivers.

    Sorry, forgot:

    2312 horns with 2308 lenses, or maybe 2370A´s, I do not like the latter after a while, but some do.

    That's a tuffy... I realize a grand sounds like a lot, but it will disappear real fast. You should let us know what you like the best about each system so that it is more obvious where to make the biggest compromises.

    A couple of related issues.
    Will you be doing the woodwork yourself?
    Does it need to have hardwood veneers?

    You can spend $250 pretty quickly just on the wood and materials if you are after an authentic JBL look.
    It typically is less expensive to buy some speakers in need of TLC and bring them back to life.

    Buy a pair of Altec A-7s. They don't sound that different from an L100 and they are damned loud.


    If it is loud you are after you might also consider a pair of Klipsch La Scalas. They are even a bit louder. You are guaranteed to get the police by the house with a 100 watt amp. Some people even like the way they sound.

    OK then, I want L-100 quality and High wattage per ch. And I want it for nothing! Just kidding. Seriously, I am looking for something more than the L-100 but is that possable? Is there better? Be honest guys.
