or just an extremely lame and cheap way to replace the rotted out foam originals? I've never seen grilles like that on an L100. And where are the badges. The price is ridiculous, IMO, they look horrible.

So What? He stated under oath they don't affect the sound at all. And, only $800.

The plant ring on the right adds to the character, that's got to add $100.

Not to mention the black rub stains on the white grilles. Classy.

or just an extremely lame and cheap way to replace the rotted out foam originals?Just an above average DIY attempt to salvage the speakers once the grilles were found piling on the floor in a mound of dust. We can discuss the subjective appeal of white grilles, but there is no "wrong" answer.

:rotfl: Sorry, forgot how circumspect you are about these things. ;)OK, I'll fess up, I was hoping to get $1200 for my pair with punched in woofers... not affecting their sound of course. The voice coil rub adds harmonic texture. :D
