2013年1月10日 · I need to correct this mistake for future readers. Do not taint your JBL L19 speakers with awful new capacitors. The originals do not need replacing - and any other capacitor will be a downgrade. The original are stacked-film caps, with hand-soldered teflon leads, in a sand-damped cardboard tube which has been sealed with wax.

The earlier 4301 / L19’s used the 116A alnico magnet woofer, same cone. The 4301/4301E used the earlier but similar LE25-2 with foam damping ring. The 4408 came a few years later after the 035Ti titanium tweeters were created.

2018年3月2日 · Almost all of the JBL L series from the mid-1970s through early 1980s used the same 8 ohm, 5 watt L-pads. It sounds like you have a pair of L19As. As far as I know, other than checking the drivers, the only way to differentiate the L19A from the L19 is the final character in the serial numbers on the front mounted foilcals.

2019年9月30日 · If those L-19's are from the JBL Decade series of the 70's, and I suspect they are, you got a great 'small' speaker. I had the Decade L-26's for several years, and found them very suited for rock music. Someone already did the 'dirty work' for you by replacing the surrounds, so that's a good thing. But did they also replace the binding posts?

2016年2月16日 · I obtained a pair of L19 speakers with incorrect woofers and when I looked them up it appeared that the original part was the 116A However in researching here and finding a past discussion Help with JBL L19s It appears that the members conversing are saying that the 116H is the correct model...

2019年9月26日 · The L19 is generally more expensive however, and I am on a budget. Miiiiight stretch my budget if the L19 goes noticeably lower, has a better sounding tweeter and is more balanced. But if the L-16 gives 95% of the sound of the L19, and is cheaper... then I might go with that one in the end.

2020年5月17日 · IMO, the cost to upgrade the crossover is minimal and the fun and enjoyment is very positive. Remember, the L19 has the same drivers and is almost acoustically the same as the JBL 4301 / 4301B small studio monitor save for one crossover cap (18uf NPE in L19 vs 16.5uf Mylar film in 4301) which adjusts the voicing slightly.

2018年2月2日 · It's a simplified version of the L19 crossover that lets the 116A woofer free run (no shunt circuit) and crosses over the tweeter at the same 2500Hz frequency as the L19. It uses a 6uF cap and .5 mH inductor (compared to the 7uF cap and 0.4 mH inductor of the L19).

2018年8月31日 · My first JBL were L36 decades, bought new in '76, since sold - and I do have L19s downstairs - they are ok, but I like the 20T speakers better. Price may be a concern, but if the L20T speakers are close, in good shape, play well, and aren't crazy expensive - …
