Re: JBL 308P and 708P
Well, patience has paid off and I’ve finally located and purchased a pair of 708p in great shape at a decent price. I think (am also hopin) this will be the last speaker I ever want. Just soo many greats things have been said about these with absolutely minimal negative remarks. Eta 3-4 days!!

Akurate 242
These are Mk2 in Cherry with silver array and came with 2 piece silver stands. I also have the upgraded black stands. The cabinet and drivers are in fantastic condition. I’m original owner, have original packing material. I will drive within a 100 mile radius +/- to meet/deliver these in order to ma...

Re: Cartridge dilema
Any thoughts about buying a 2nd hand Klyde or Dynavector Karat 17D (I had those waaay back with my akito, lingo and linto). I just don’t know how they are 2nd hand, how long they last. I replaced those during an upgrade frenzy.

Cartridge dilema
It’s time to move on from my Kandid. It’s Not listenable.. the harshness is brutal. I’ve stopped spinning for fear of damaging my collection. Any recommendations Under $900USD? This will be temporary as my money is kind of funny right now. Thanks everyone.

Re: Linn Kandid
Anthony,
Is this still for sale? Are you original owner? Approximately how many hours of usage on this? My current Kandid has been retired once but it’s definitely time to move on.

Re: JBL 308P and 708P
Thanks so much for clearing things up sir. Looks like the 308’s I picked up 2nd hand are the MKI’s! It’s better to be lucky than good sometimes 🤪. I’d like to ask the group which XLR cables they are using from preamp to their 308’s? I picked up a pr of inexpensive cables from Guitar Center as I need...

Seeking suggestions for temporary solution
Well it appears my Kandid is on its way out. Ive definitely got a bunch of hours on it, so not the end of the world. My money is a little funny right now 😬… so replacing it with Kandid or Ekstatik isnt an option. I dont want to stop enjoying music, nor do I want to possibly damage my music collectio...

An interesting dilemma
I recently picked up a pr of 2nd hand 308p MKII solely for the purpose of seeing how a monitor this size would suit my listening room. I’m fully aware the MKI is a more musical speaker. I must say I’m a bit torn after some extensive listening. Am I crazy to say I prefer the SPL’s that the 308’s put ...

Re: Acquiring early pressings.?
Thanks everyone. I ended up getting a red label Canadian pressing of Zep I and it’s pretty strong, and a good deal.
I still have yet to see anything about a Zep III RL. I’d love to be mistaken!

Re: JBL 308P and 708P
Thanks so much Jajo. The price of these has come down significantly on the 2nd hand market along with increased supply. I just wish I could demo these before committing to laying out that kind of coin.
