Tuquala Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 After finishing the recap on my AR3's, and not really hearing any change in the sound out in the garage (always a great listening site!!), I moved them into the house in place of my L100 JBL's. After a couple weeks of listening, I have to say that they have "come around"!!These now take me back to when I was using KLH 5's and enjoying the east coast/New England sound in the 60's and 70's. I am hearing more in the music and voices again. Very enjoyable. I like the L100's for some stuff, but these are way better for almost all of what I have been listening to.. Very smooth and listenable (?), and don't seem to tire the ears out at high levels like the JBL's. These are being driven by a Yamaha RX-V3000 only in 2 channel mode. I use the Cambridge Soundworks Ensemble's for theater and surround.Added a couple of pics so you all can see the finished product.Gerry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shacky Posted April 14, 2010 Report Share Posted April 14, 2010 Very nice job on those 3a's! They are great sounding aren't they? I had JBL L36's not the L-100. I prefer the AR's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer the AR's.Back in the day we did a lot of AR vs JBL "testing" and my reaction was: ARs sound like I'm listening to music; JBLs sound like I'm listening to speakers!
