    You are dead right. They are 18ti without ti. I got them for next to nothing with the original 044ti tweeters, but I had a pair of 044 tweeters lying around doing nothing. Ended up selling the 044ti tweeters for 200euro and kept the speakers as now just JBL 18....

    And good-looking, too! The 044 really looks great in there. A much easier transplant than it would be for my L20t though. Very elegant.

    Not yet but I can give you my opinion tomorrow!
    Today I found an MC2500 & a C32 at a Garage Sale!
    Believe it or not, I traded a vintage stove for the pair
    My 4343's are on route from Houston, TX & so I can give you an opinion on those once they arrive next week or the L100t's tomorrow!
    Any recommendations on a better preamp than the C32?

    Has anyone had any experience with the McIntosh MC402 & C46 on JBL S2600 speakers? Anyone at all? Perhaps with the S3100's?

    No need to respond. The combo works great on my S2600 speakers. Thanks for everyone's help.

    Just got my first ever JBL's(at 64 no less!), some 4412's. Got them because I recently acquired a McIntosh MC2300 and didn't want to do something to kill my precious AR3's. So those are now relegated to duty with my Mc MC2105, and the 2300 is finally able to stretch it's likes and flex it's muscles with the 4412. Never saw the meters move much until this pair up. Now, this is a regular occurrence(when the wife isn't home, of course).
