I know of a pair of these locally that are in fair condition. Anyone out here know how much they are worth. The original white woofer was replaced at an authorized service center a few years back and the current woofer is black but matches factory specs.

    There are a lot of JBL folks out there with money to $pend. I've got a pair of 4313B monitors that needs one 10" woofer. If you can get it cheap, you could always part it out on Ebay.

    lots of old JBL nuts on Audiokarma.org. bounce it off them for a more accurate value estimate., but that a pretty well sought out speaker. I never heard those old JBL's, but would love too

    Thanks for the reply. I'll give Audiokarma a try. Still regret selling my SDA's to this day but I will be patient and I'm sure to find them again. Thanks again.

    Anyone ever hear them? I saw them but the guys system was so dorked they weren't playing. Evidentily his son rewired the system and dad couldn't figure it out.

    I had L100 Century models for years and really liked them with Marantz solid state amps. They aren't the most accurate ever made but, they are pretty efficient, great rock & roll speakers. There are plenty of parts to be had with ebay sellers parting them out regularly. That is a plus with any vintage speaker.
