I have joined the JBL society in a big way . JBL L250's on their way

http://www.audiokarma.org/forums/index.php?threads/jbl-l250-questions.826410/

I got 2 pair of JBL 112's about a year ago and they led me to this .

 

Adcom GFA 5500 for now . I am open to Amp ideas .

 

Welcome to the pyramid club . The Adcom is a fine amp to get them going and should provide plenty of listening enjoyment. While they always like more power, there is an art to voicing the amp with the speakers, electronics and room. Part of me still misses the magic I had with the tube MC275 driving them.

Excellent

 

Congrats!

The Adcom will work very well if it's in decent health.

When I first brought the L250 home, they needed some attention. I cleaned all of the buss bars and screw posts on the back with very fine steel wool. I had to remove all of the drivers for a few reasons and found that multiple plastic putty knives are handy.
A few of the female terminals were squeezed back into good tension and I may have used a brass brush on the males. It was all put back together per schematic colors and only the woofer can be wired wrong on these IIRC.

Room setup may be worth experimenting with as well. They were in a long rectangular room in the beginning. It was good luck that they worked very well in the first place I could find for them. Later, I had a difficult room and much rearranging paid off.

 

My tech gave that Adcom GFA 5500 rave reviews. He told me to buy one! That's what he uses....

 

Excellent grab! Never heard a pair, but I've had 4 sets of JBL 240ti's. Youre in for some fantastic listening! Everyone raves about the 250ti's!

 

Mine are not the Ti's . I will settle for an upgrade over my JBL 112's .

 

Well , they are here and all tucked in . Fresh oil and have become big brothers to my 112's . Wow , I have a lot of listening to do .

 

Those are sweet and beautiful! Nice score on those. Can’t wait to hear your results

 

They have been a pure joy so far .
