i guess it would depend on how much one is willing to pay for said speakers.
...do great speakers increase in value over time in the vintage market?
Hello to all...
I have a pair of JBL L25 "PRIMA" speakers, made 1972, case in 7/10 shape (not repainted), surrounds on woofers reformed several years ago, grill cloth replaced several years ago, includes JBL badges on speakers. Original 1972 price $169/ea.
Recent searches of this speaker in the vintage market show prices 50% OR MORE than the origional issue price: ???
Is this that good a speaker design? - I have read comments saying it his/was one of the best speakers ever made by JBL (at that time?) - and I do luv their sound (which I now wonder if I've ever really heard them?) especially with well-recorded jazz and have the ability with little power to ROCK OUT!
(Would greatly appreciate any comments by those who have/had these over the years...)
