I didn't want to spend this much for a second system speaker, but it's probably the best choice, based on my tastes for a non-fatiguing, not bright sounding, speaker.
I had high hopes for the JBL L100 but that was almost 180 degrees away from my tastes when I listened to them.
I remember the original JBLs L100s from back in the day and they drove me out of the room when I heard them even back then. Pacific Stereo sold the cr*p out of them but I went with Large Advents.
