These are what we refer to as a "Survivor Set", meaning they had a nice easy life where they were likely sitting in the same house, in the same spot, for their entire life.

The L100 is a legendary and collectible speaker as it has an accurate yet laid back sound which does not tire over a long listening session. Far better than most fatiguing hyper realistic modern speakers.

Not sure why anyone would spend $5k+ on a re-issue set where you can have the true original version for the same amount.

Condition is outstanding. All we did is replace the tweeter foams, order new foam grills (your choice of blue or orange) and oil the cabinets.

These have been tested thoroughly and are working perfectly. I was actually listening to these for 2+ days straight in the shop powered by our recently listed ARC D-115 MKII classic tube amplifier. Couldn't get enough of the combo.

The SkyFi Testing Process for Speakers:

Our speaker evaluation process starts with a visual inspection of all drivers. We are looking for damaged or deteriorating woofer surrounds, dented tweeter domes, and cone damage. We also inspect the speaker connection points for loose or broken connectors.

After the initial visual inspection we connect the speakers to a reference amplifier with our preferred test tracks. With the speakers placed with proper distance we listen to each driver to make sure that they are producing the intended frequencies with no signs of distortion or rattle. During listening tests with test tracks we check for proper stereo imaging and bass response at various listening levels. If there are any audible signs of issues, the speakers are taken to the bench where we perform a frequency sweep to isolate the issue so that it can be resolved by component repair or replacement.

More from JBL:
When it was found that musicians, engineers and other discriminating professionals in increasing numbers were purchasing the JBL studio monitor for home use, JBL introduced the L100 - acoustically identical to the studio monitor, yet offering provocative styling appropriate to the home environment.

Truncated pyramids of the Quadrex 2 grille dramatize unique lineage and advanced engineering of the L100.

New methods of sculpting semi-rigid foam material gave JBL the freedom to explore texture, color and shape. This reticulated (open-pore) foam - substantially the same material used for quality microphone windscreens - has been proven to transmit sound as well as even the most acoustically transparent grille cloths.

The grille frame and loudspeaker system enclosure are finished in hand rubbed oiled walnut on all four sides and can be placed horizontally or vertically.
