JBL 4312A just pick them up

[PAZ Alive]

I just pick up a set of JBL 4312A. They sound great and in great condition. Cabinets have hardly any wear plus all drivers work awesome.

Great score man....:thmbsp:

Can't wait to hear them....:yes:

Those are the kind of speakers that make you wonder what you could ever be happier with. I am using the 4311B as mains. When you use what the professional recording/mixing studios use, it's more about the source than the equipment. Who wants to hear a "flat" system?

Great speakers! They will last forever, too. Tell us about the rest of your rig!

You like 'em, fine, but the rest is myth.... :yes:

EVERY system has it's own interpretation of the source. The "right" speakers with the wrong amp (or other) is up to your own ear for appreciation. Anyone can like a lot of different sounds (interpretations) but to judge where one is an improvement or "better" than another is up to the one who cares about such things. I am sure if O'bama (What?! He's not Irish?) is elected (God help us all), we will all live together in harmony.

I have 2 pair of 4311s. I lived with them in audio ecstasy for over 30 years. It was of little consequence to me that they weren't 'flat'. I used an equalizer to adjust them to my liking, and a Pioneer RG to 'warm them up'.

The 4312's look similar to my eyes, although I've never heard a pair. All I know is my JBL's are absolutely amazing.

Good find PAZ Alive......great speakers, even if holy water isn't spinkled on them by all. I have a sweet pair of JBL 4312A speakers that I bought new years ago installed in a motorhome. I drive them with a very clean Tandberg 3008A preamp, Yamaha P2100 amp, and a JVC CD player. The JBL's make the ol' camper rock. Hope you enjoy yours as much as I enjoy mine.

I just sold a pair of 4312a's. They were a lot better than a whole lot of other speakers I have/had. The titanium treated dome is better than the 4311 or L100 tweeters, IME.
Even though they seemed to reproduce a fairly flat response, the mid always seemed to be a little forward or over-bearing or something to that effect. The woofer was a little boomy but Ok for me as I wasn't pushing them to any level higher than a nearfield volume. All said, a good speaker and I'm sure you'll enjoy them. They look to be in fine shape, as well.
I'm still on the fence if I want to thin the herd some more and sell my 4313b's. That is a much better speaker in the low ranges to my ears. The tweeter is not too shabby either. Well I guess I just settled that. :yes:They aren't going anywhere. I like JBL's.
