New speakers!

Well new to me at least. A friend gave me a set of early 70s' JBL L-88s. Now for those of you not old enough to remember these monsters they were the stuff of great parties and many long weekends with yes and the stones and ..... You get the picture speakers that get loud and have a great bottom and top but almost no mid. To put it another way the speakers of my youth. I have been having the best time pulling out the old records and listening to my past scratches pops and clicks and all. I cant listen to the radio now I don't want to hear any rap played on these but I sure am thinking I need to get some CD's of my old lp collection. Before you say it yes I know that there are better sounding speakers and ones that are more true to the recordings but the memory of big JBL woofers and my first few bottles of wine and well you know.. It just cant be evoked with anything else. I don't think I have felt this way in a long time and I sure hope that it lasts a long time. I don't even think Ill mind doing the taxes if I can just sit here and listen to my speakers and my old music. Just found my CD of running on empty, Ill be back later when I run out of old music to play.

SO, you can continue to read the old one, but I'm just letting you know that there's a second one around.
