The L-110 10" 3-Way was a stupendouslyvgood speaker. It was the first JBL to use a computer designed Thiele-Small alignment, and it shows. Rock solid, fast bass, spot-on midrange, and JBL's first dome tweeter. None of the typical JBL boomy bass and shrieky mids, it was amazingly neutral. It had a little brother, the L40, a 10" 2-Way that showed what an Advent could have been with a few dollars more spent on the drivers and the cabinet. While the L110s might be above your budget, a clean pair of L40s might be - and worth it. In the 1980s JBL still only made high end products, each designed to be best in class. The L40s were the best 10" 2-ways you could get. Cast frame woofers, incredible cabinetry, every inch a true JBL,
