    Speaker Coating Question (JBL L100)

    I hope this is the correct place for this thread, I was lucky enough to be gifted a pair of 70s JBL L100 speakers by a family friend. They were in great shape, but incredibly dusty, but worked fine otherwise. The family friend who gifted them to me used a damp rag to wipe the woofer cone before...

    Last year I bought a Pioneer Sa-9500 for $350. When it works, it sounds pretty good and blows any modern amp I have used out of the water. It is experiencing the issue these amps seem to have (power protection grid failure), and I wanted to know if it was worth having it fixed or if I should...

    Completed restoring JBL L-100's this week.

    This week I finished a five month restoration on my JBL L-100's. I think they sound and look great. I really did not need to do much to get them back into usable order. When I got them in my opinion all they needed was new foam around the tweeters, new grill fronts and some elbow work on the...
