Best rated vintage JBL speakers? | Audiokarma Home Audio Stereo ...
2015年1月19日 · The 4333 is the same L300 design in a much more conventional but nice walnut box (unless you get the utility gray), but lacks some WAF. All of the later 4 way speakers are better in many respects but hard to find and usually more costly, as is the L300 (pushing >$2000 easily due to demand). I would agree with the 4430 recommendation as that is ...

Consensus on best all around vintage speakers?
2015年10月12日 · The best all around vintage speaker (for me) has been the Wharfedale W90. There are so many variables here - room, music tastes, amplification, that it is impossible to generalize. I have a small room, I like jazz, funk, and classic rock at pretty loud volumes, and prefer the holographic lifelike midrange of a tube amp over SS.
