Gentlemen,
Would someone please advise. I need some grill cloth to refurbish a pair of L20Ts. The original appears to be a VERY dark blue or black knit. I would prefer something leaning more towards a dark blue as long as it is an original colour, but will take what I can get. Thank you for your consideration.

This thread has the most info on the famous JBL Blue grille cloth. It is long but there is info there that might help.

I have given up on the search since I am no longer pursuing the 43XX monitors.

I have L20Ts too. I think that your cloth was originally black, but time has caused it to fade, so that it looks blueish now. I have some black cloth from Parts Express that loolks nice and works well.

Thank you Mr.Widget,
I did not intend to ask a question that had already been so thoroughly covered. I was aware of the difficulties in obtaining the EXACT match, but would be willing to be happy with something close. Was a consensus ever reached?
Thank you again,
Analogman

Thank you, Don C,
I think you are correct about it being black at one time! It is difficult for me to distinguish shades on the computer. My grills only exhibit a blueish hue in certain light. Thank you for the suggestion.
