    Those Kallax Shelves are indeed tilted intenionally . But there's a little mistake there - it would have been better to tilt them the other way around.
    Side and top walls of the 4355 are treated with a light grey wax.

    Would it be to make the discs and books stand on the left side?

    Yes. When a vinyl record sleeve stands upright, the cover side is on the right. If those shelves would be tilted to the left, the records wold be too, and the cover side would be the one to look at.
    Missed that one prior to the assembly .

    Blue Material?

    I recently aquired a very nice set of 4355 clones. The builder did not do anything with the front, just unfinished wood. What gives the fronts that trademark blue color? Is it paint or fabric or what? I would have no clue where I might be able to see a real pair of these.

    Thanks!

    Hi, the original are Painted (primer+paint with foam roller)

    if you search there are many post with color trials to get the original BLue from the RAL codes, additionally the blue has change a little time by time from JBL, but you can go really close to that one intended.

    Here's an actual picture of baritones blue. I used automotive rock guard and covered with a simulated stone paint from Home Depot. I just rolled the blue over it.

    FWIW: There are several factory JBL blue baffle colors. The ‘70s 43XX monitors were much lighter and had a bit more chroma (brighter blue, not grayish or pastel) than the more recent versions of JBL blue.
