Hello To All.....As a new LHF member, I would like to thank all other members for all the interesteing and insightful Info on the whole JBL line-up. I truly enjoy reading your opinions and experiences. Now I need Your help.
Does anyone know where I can purchase some L200 Foam Grills? I recently purchased a Mint pair of L200's, but unfortunately they have cloth grills. I would really like to get these back to there original condition if possible.

Thankyou in advance for your advice.

Cloth grill can be very nice. This certainly blends well with our decor and have a high WAF.;)

It's surprising that he would not want to do business with you, he is always looking for customers for his grilles.

It is possible that SONOFAGUN has a backlog on making the grills, contact him again and tell him you are willing to wait. It might take a while but these grills are well worth the wait.

The grilles can seem expensive at first, but they are worth the cost.

I ran across an EBay ad 5847846277 for L100 foam grilles saying they have an infinite number of sizes of foam available for replacement grilles. EBay pictures of flat foam (not L100 eggcrate) on table with electronics in racks behind. If Sonofagun is busy, might try them! Seller id "lakemattoonbar" in Neoga, Illinois says to email him.

I'm working to try to clear up production problems - please be patient. Think things (hopefully) may break after first of year. Making these grilles is an involved process - especially short of having extensive facilities and equipment.

I've never told anybody I didn't want to "do business with them" - just that I currently can't get grilles to them in short order. There are several other postings on this site regarding my problems. Being an "old man" doesn't help either!

Thanks Gunner.....I can't wait to get them applied. I have seen pics of Zilch's L200's with your blue suits on; They look so nice. I have been quite envious for a long while. My L200's, at last, will finally be getting their own formal wear....(Maroon Shaffer Tux's)
