I bought a pair of L80t at a reasonable price but not a steal. They're in decent physical shape, with one chipped corner and some minor discoloration on the tops. Don't have them set up yet, I need to make room first. I hope the bass from the tens is enough, but I used to have a pair of L166 and the bass from just one speaker was plenty in my room.
The mids and tweets are fine. The woofers have been refoamed. The guy who I bought them from said he bought them from a guy who had refoamed them, and that they guy built speakers and he looked like he knew what he was doing. I can see that the dustcaps were cut off for shimming. The new surrounds are attached to the front of the cones. Is that correct? And if not, will it cause any problems?
I'm going to watch ebay for L80t3 crossovers.
Wasn't there some specific oil or something that JBL recommends to use on the wood finish?
Also, once I got them home I noticed the serial numbers aren't consecutive. I don't have them in front of me, but I think they were off by a hundred or something like that. Does that mean the tweeters won't be matched as well as a consecutive pair?
