Hi there, i am the owner of a pair of JBL L-100 Century, and they are a bit worn, but i am starting a restoration project with them now.
One thing i am wondering is, the midrange driver, seems to be brown on mine, a light brown, and I was positive it was black originally.
But with some searching on the internet for photos, i have seen almost mint condition units with both the black and the brown cone - where there different drivers in use in these speakers?
just so you know what i talk about, here is a link to a site with pictures of drivers, in both color schemes:
http://www.troelsgravesen.dk/JBL_L100.htm
the pictures of the mentioned "friend's speakers" and the midrange speaker beneath it, reveals a clear difference in color.
Tomorrow, i will take out the drivers from the cabinet and post any info found there - if this should matter to anyone!
I hope some guru out there knows anything about this!
best regards
