DizRotus Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Forget the stereo. I want the camera that took those excellent photos. But seriously, with the Marantz receiver, the JBL speakers and a turntable, $299 seams like a deal. FWIW, as a child we often stopped at an A&W in Morrow, OH as we traveled between Wyoming, OH and Cowan Lake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvu80 Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 What are the JBL's and what are they worth? It's about 2.5 hour drive one way for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm gonna guess and say they're L55's. Worth? I dunno.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to guess the L100 but a quick Google search determined that is not what they are. If it's the L55 I seem to remember some problems with them. I think the surrounds completely disintegrate and need to be refoamed. Ditto for that convoluted orange grill. There was something else off about them regarding the sound, but I can't remember. Boomy bass maybe? Delicate tweeter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mighty Favog Posted October 26, 2019 Author Share Posted October 26, 2019 If time is short, I might be able to snag them and store them fer ya till you get here. Soonest I'm available is tomorrow afternoon, I think. They're about 1/2 hour from me one way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvu80 Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 If I could get them for $300 and flip them for $1000 that would be worth my time. Otherwise, not interested. I'll not be able to research them tonight, too tired. The racquetball from 7a to about noon. I'll check the boards while I'm playing and see if you guys come up with any recommendations. I would not buy them to keep them, I like my Klipsch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mighty Favog Posted October 26, 2019 Author Share Posted October 26, 2019 O.k., I've never heard a pair so I trust those who know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoff. Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 ...they look like the speakers in the Foreman’s basement on “That 70’s Show” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
absolve2525 Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 I answered the post yesterday, 45 mins after it went up. Already pending lol. I don't know why it was up for so long afterward. Good deal for someone. The woofers are really nice, tweets okay, but not really the best two-way speaker. Definitely worth it for the Marantz thrown in. Oh well! Tweets might be blown anyways. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

absolve2525 Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 If someone here got them, it would be great to hear about it! I couldn't tell which Marantz model, but they're all pretty sweet sounding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wvu80 Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 I never followed up on them, they just didn't hold my interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
