These are not your Father’s JBL loudspeakers. These are the L100 'Classic', reborn for 21st Century listeners.

They sport a newly developed 1″ titanium dome wave-guided tweeter plus a 5″ pure pulp midrange driver – complete with attenuators; for the bass, a 12″ pure pulp driver with front-firing flared bass reflex port. The new version also features improved enclosure tuning and an all-new crossover.
