on the JBL replacement cloth grille inserts for the L100

I have seen them stuck all over the place

Would greatly appreciate the exact placement measurements for the corner on an original unmolested example

(unless of course there was no such thing and left uo to the end user)

Thank you if you can help; I'd be very much interested in knowing the placement measurements on the original Quadrex foam types as well (but only if taken from an original or an exact reproduction)

Thank you

Measurement? :confused: Seems to be one-up, and one-over?

Seems you are incorrect, try taking a closer look

Guess you don't know either

What's it with you and L100 threads anyway?

Irresistible force?

Thomas, looking at the catalogs, it looks like early L-100s had the badges in the lower left corner (2nd pic). In the 1976 catalog (1st pic) JBL moved the badges to the top right corner. Hope this helps.

Wagner,

You struck out again boy.

300 Summit nailed it.

Suggest you lay low and left folks consider and comment on the community interest before you decide your the only one alive after D Day.

Yes. I have noticed that as well on some examples, thank you for that Lamont

My primary interest is getting the distance from for vertical and horizontal insert edge right

Foam inserts would make life so much simpler, but after the effort to make the ones I have (inserts) and that they are covered with some of the material from the last order I did with Evan (and a little of his cat's DNA to boot), then cloth it is

That is why I am being so fastidious with something so irrelevant, these have a little of the "Zilch vibe" in them and I want the accurate measurements.............................I hear what you are pointing out; I want to go with the most common "bottom" placement, meaning nearest the woofers

Thank you Sir
