It's here: http://www.estatesales.net/estate-sales/435984.aspx

5th row down. The tag looks like JBL but I don't recognize it. Thanks.

Obviously I'm having difficulty skimming text. . . . .

I read they can be modified to be essentially L100s. Ya? Worth trying to grab?

 

[pauldrewry]

Speakers?! I did notice the wine.

Grab the reel to reel tapes too while you are there. I wonder what they where driving the L88 Novas with?

Nova 88

Only the L-88+ was designed to later add a midrange and change the crossover from a 2-way to a 3-way.

I believe these are Nova 88s.

These could be a very nice acquisition, they're collector items!

If I were there, I would be very interested!

More speakers in 84-86.

I see lots of nice non-audio stuff everywhere. Glad I'm not close.

Yeah,I noticed it too. I noticed it's not stored properly. . :thumbsdn:

Nova 88's or Athena 99's.

If you can tell the difference with the grills on, you are AMAZING and probably work for the nsa.

I seriously doubt they stored it there in the living room, i,m sure the estate sale folks put it there. No telling how it was stored prior. But there in the living room it would be convenient.

Looks like there is an Onkyo receiver there. I'd also take a look at the wine and those espresso machines.

 

[HeezDeadJim]

I'd definitely get the TEAC RtR and maybe that Singer sewing machine.

Thanks for the replies (I lost the thread for some reason). What year are they?

(Aha, the Lansing site says they're 1971)
