Seems every week for past 18 months there are price increases for JBL L100 that are 50 plus years old? It's not so much the age but, the idea that these actually sound goo enough to warrant $2000 price tags.
Increases of that sustained timeframe implies a demand. Who is demanding and have they actually listened to it ?
Sometimes the good old days weren't
