JBL Bose hybred - Yikes

I was looking up an old set of JBLs that I have and found this.  Sounds like quite an engineer.  $40 too much in my book...

 

 

I bought a pair of JBL LX44 speakers from a friend 3 years ago. The woofers were shot and needed to be replaced but the midrange and titanium tweeter were like new. I only paid $40.00 for them,and was going to pay about $200.00 to fix the woofers.One day I looked across the street at the neighbors house and there was a set of old Bose 201 speakers in the trash. The speaker cabinets were shot but all the speakers were in great shape,so I took the 201 woofers out and installed them in the JBL LX44's They were about 1/8th of an inch to small but I was able to screw them in good. To my suprise they sounded great,alot better than I thought. The only problem is rescently the left woofer crackles a bit when the volume is real high,but at normal volume they sound like new. It's a JBL-Bose combo. It has a great but unique suond to it. For $40.00 you can't beat it.
