To be honest, a lot of this is down to my living situation for the last 11 years--NYC living isn't very conducive to setting up enormous speakers at home and enjoying them!

I've also lately been...

Very interesting, I hadn't considered that. At the very least it makes the decision for me for now, and I can see whether I feel like I'd miss them too badly once I get them set up in the new place.

Thanks everyone!

Yeah, honestly it's the prospect of moving them from NYC to Los Angeles that's got my wife and I thinking.

I do enjoy the speakers, although I have to admit--heresy...

Been awhile since I've been on the forum!

I still have my 4345s, but I'm not sure for how long. About to undertake a cross-country move, and the topic has been broached in my household of moving...

it's what they're made for. Curtis Mayfield bumping on the 4345s as we speak.

awesome.

I own L-65s.

Therefore, it is with some qualification that I can heartily recommend that you get the L110s. :)

L-65 is a pleasant speaker. But considering the level of components, it's my...

Drove from Paterson, NJ to Fredericksburg, VA for a pair of $50 L-65As that are now my bedroom speakers.

Rented a truck and drove to South Gibson, PA from Paterson, NJ for my $500 4345 pair...

That is exactly the news I hoped to hear. You saved me a few hundred bux. Thanks!

So I pulled my 2122H pair because the surrounds were old. One had just developed a little hole and the other was just as brittle... the surrounds on both looked identical and of identical age.

I...

I think the 8" driver in the 4408 is the very best sounding 8" I have ever heard. So my vote is to keep the 4408. Hey! Didn't you get those from me? Yeah, keep those! :applaud:

I can't say for sure, but I do know that some people prefer to do the refoam themselves because they have feelings on how best to do it.

However, as long as you install the foam on the rear of the...

Got my replacement aftermarket lenses today from Kenrick Sound. They're very nice-- all plates on both lenses were straight and true with no waviness or curl. I can't imagine how they could be any...

Awesome! Can't wait to see how this progresses.

word

that is hilarious!

I bet that's one nice sounding fire alarm. :D

:banghead:

This was totally trumped by my "all there" pair of $500 4345s, purchased from a Pennsylvania craigslist seller.

:applaud:

I've had pretty good luck so far. Maybe there's still hope I'll find...

Maybe some folks here should pool resources and start a company called LBJ! and make real JBL speakers like the old days,.

Then they could put a picture of Lyndon Johnson's face on the back of the...

Maybe that should happen sooner than later. Then someone who wanted to make really nice speakers could buy the name and all would be right with the world.

Just used this tutorial to apply grille cloth to my 4345s. Instead of the original Zilch/saeman blue, I went with a rust-colored orange that matches my room better from acoustimac.com

A couple of...

by the way, that is a hellafied cool amp-- and so rare! I'm glad to see you're "doing it right" by finding the real stuff for it.

They made tons of those things. I'm sure they're still floating around-- just gotta have a little patience.

Cool-- that's what I wanted to know!

Thanks.

If collectibility is your goal, it might be just as well to hold out for one that hasn't been reconed.

At the very least, find one with the proper curvilinear smooth (non-ribbed) cone.

Just bumping this thread to ask a question--

To those who ordered lenses from Kenrick via eBay, how long was it before you received any kind of notice or communication re: "order received" or...
