For sale -

JBL speakers.

The best speakers i have owned imho.

I'm moving shortly and sadly these will not fit in our next home.

Pretty much gutted as they look and sound wonderful.

They are in lovely condition, with original grill covers,
They have had the woofer surrounds replaced in recent years.

The old wire connectors have been replaced to accept banana plugs.

They come with very nice custom wood stands.
Also, custom covers.

I think it would be difficult to find such a nice pair with stands and covers.

These were a star of a Wam show in recent years i believe.

I have had JBL 4312mk2, kef 104/2, snell AIII, ruark equinox.
These are my favorites, but unfortunately they won't fit our next lounge.

Compared to the JBL 4312mk2, these are punchier, tighter in the bass, but still with very deep bass.

One of the best vintage JBL made.

I have used these with primaluna prologue 2, 5.5 w el84 set, mf A1.

Collection from Grantham, Lincs.

£750 cash on collection.

Thanks for looking.

I wish I needed a pair of them, they will sound amazing and are of a similar vintage to my previous 120Ti's that I loved.

Beautiful pair of stands too.

Good luck with you sale, some lucky person will bag a bargain.

My Hi-Fi friend and I have got through a lot of speakers in the last 50 years, many expensive as well, and what comes out is that JBLs of this vintage are so far ahead of many others, and are very good even compared with high end stuff now.

A system based on these will provide a very good system at a reasonably low price.

I'll be looking at our new house later this week.
I'm hoping they fit in the bedroom.

Sadly up for sale again.
They won't fit my new place and i guess they have to find a new home.

Everyone should try JBLs.
And they don't get much better than this.

Well.
I couldn't bare to sell these in the end.
Apologies to the previous buyer for mucking him around.

But after moving, although they sound great, they are far too big for my small Victorian terrace lounge.
They stick out like a sore thumb and it isn't fare on the other half.

So reluctantly back up for sale.

At least i tried.

The price is £700 for speakers and covers (stands not included).

For the build, sound and condition, i consider that a bargain.

Collection only please form Eton Wick, near Windsor.

Having owned a pair, I understand the love. It's my mate, @luvpies, who is buying them having heard my pair years ago. I can't wait to hear a set in his system.
