The L100 is designed for rock & roll, efficiency, power handling, sine waves and sharp musical transients. Two 12" woofers have the same output as one 17" driver (12 × √2 = 17"). With a full 12" woofer in each speaker, you have stereo bass and none of the distortion that plagues little speakers that try to get "big speaker" sound with electronic fortification - which leads to much more low-frequency distortion. People then bought the 4311 like crazy, and even I bought a brand-new pair of 4311 in 1985.įor those of you used to wimpy compact smart speakers that sound "bigger than they are," these astonish young people as these are the "big" speakers that all the little Bluetooth speakers wished they were. The only reason they were discontinued is that people finally realized that the professional model 4311 was the same speaker, for less money. They sold like crazy from their introduction at the 1970 Spring CES in Chicago until they were discontinued in 1978. These were everywhere in the 1970s because they sounded great, were small compared to other speakers that sounded this good and played very loud without needing much power. The JBL L100 is JBL's, if not the world's, greatest selling speaker of all time.
