Product: JBL Century L100 Vintage Floorstanding Speaker; Tawny Walnut Pair
Product SKU: 19028
Serial Number: 31131, 31126
Cosmetic Description: 7/10 Very good cosmetic condition with some minor visible cosmetic wear including white paint overspray on the left surface of each speaker. There is a 3" crack in the cone of one of the woofers (professionally repaired), and light wear on the bottom right edge of one cabinet. One of the grills has a small stain on top and a couple of staple legs poking through slightly. This item shows some wear consistent with its age but is still presentable and sounds wonderful.
What is Included: Pair of speakers, Manual, 3 foam speaker stands (missing one), Russet Brown grills, Factory packaging
Functional Notes: Operational condition of this item is excellent, fully tested and no issues found.
Age: Circa 1971
# of Owners: 1

Service History: These speakers were serviced in June, 2019 to patch and restore one of the woofer cones. There is not a commercially available white replacement cone, and based on the severity of the crack, a patch was chosen rather than a re-cone. The woofer tests well and sounds excellent.
MSRP: $980
Other Notes: This pair of vintage JBL L100 Century speakers comes with aftermarket JBL "Russet Brown" grills in their own shipping box.
"Overall, top-to-bottom coherence was fantastic and the midrange clarity was well on par if not better than a lot of today’s speakers in the $1,000 – $2,000 range. The soundstage presented was incredibly wide, easily extending a few feet beyond the speaker boundaries." - Tone Audio
