JBL has announced the JBL L100 Classic 80, a limited-edition loudspeaker released to mark the company’s 80th anniversary. The L100 was originally released back in the 1970’s and rapidly became one of the most recognizable loudspeakers in JBL history. Production of the JBL L100 Classic 80 is limited to 800 matched pairs worldwide.

Each pair includes an individually numbered plaque signed by the principal system engineer (Chris Hagen), JS-150 speaker stands, and arrives in a dedicated wooden crate.

The JBL L100 Classic 80 is finished in a natural oak wood veneer and paired with a vintage-inspired brown Quadrex foam grille with a gold-and-black JBL logo, together with a black satin wood baffle frame and anniversary edition badging on front and rear.

This three-way, front-ported bookshelf loudspeaker uses a 12-inch cast-frame pure pulp cone woofer, a 5.25-inch polymer-coated pure pulp cone midrange driver, and a 1-inch titanium dome tweeter with JBL’s acoustic lens waveguide. The front-panel controls allow adjustment of mid and high frequencies, and the speaker is rated at 4 ohms with dual binding posts that support bi-wiring or bi-amp use.
