＋JBL L100 Classic MkII Loudspeaker (each)
In 1970, JBL released the iconic L100 Loudspeaker. Over the years, the L100 became the bestselling loudspeaker in JBL’s history. In 2018, it brought you the JBL L100 Classic, a modern take on a time-honored legend. The Classic featured vintage styling, including a retro-inspired design and iconic Quadrex foam grille, along with newly developed acoustic technology and designs for elite performance.
The L100 Classic Mk2 features performance enhancements to all three drivers, and a revised crossover network to include bi-wire/bi-amp capabilities.
The 1" titanium dome tweeter is mated to a waveguide with an acoustic lens for optimum integration with the 5" pure-pulp cone midrange driver directly below it. Powerful bass is provided by a 12" cast-frame, white pure-pulp cone woofer in a bass-reflex enclosure, tuned via a single front-firing port tube. The high-frequency and mid-frequency L-pad attenuators on the front baffle preserve the classic features of this iconic legend.

Black is Back!
With the Black Edition Appearance package, the enclosure of the L100 is treated to a multi-step, labor-intensive painting process that starts with a black base coat and ends with a luxurious high-gloss finish, resulting in a mirror-like exterior that reflects its surroundings.
The high-gloss process also provides a subtle radius to the edges of the cabinet, giving it a softer look overall. To complement the black cabinets, the cabinet features special gold labels on the front, around the attenuator level controls, and on the rear, above the input terminal cup. Black Quadrex foam grilles are accented with unique gold JBL badges to visually identify this model as special-edition products.
The Black Edition Performance Package includes an upgraded woofer design that benefits from improvements to its linearity, which help reduce distortion (L100 and L82 only). The tweeter and midrange drivers have also been treated to refinements that deliver higher levels of performance.
Additional upgrades include a change to the crossover design to provide dual inputs for use in bi-wiring applications, while a new input terminal cup includes dual sets of premium gold-plated binding post terminals for a secure connection to a variety of loudspeaker cable and connector types.
