I recently read of JBL introducing an updated version L 100 (Classic) speaker in the Spring of 2018 for about $4000. Any members have any first hand reviews/thoughts or experience with the latest L 100? How does it compare to the Century Gold?

No flames meant, but, have they actually gone into the retail/sales stream yet?Originally Posted by NEWYORKER
I saw promo/marketing info, but have not heard anyone here or on another forum had actually bought a pair yet ...

Audio Inpact here in San Diego is taking orders on the L100 Classic for customers currently.
Again, I know they are for sale, and I am not being snarky,
but does anyone here actually have a pair playing in their home?
have you taken delivery of them in a real world place?

sorry for the light
New improved woofer

Ordered a pair of L100 Classics this morning and they're backordered already. Looks like JBL underestimated the number of Baby Boomers with fond memories and more dollars than sense!
Well put.
Please give us a report when you get them. I'm sure there are more than a handful of us interested in your findings!

That woofer has me curious! I would love to see the EDS...
Saw them at RMAF last weekend, but they weren't playing them when I was in the Harman room. My 20 year old son absolutely LOVED the look!
Not all of the files, hopefully the pertinent.
Thank you but that is not a 1200Fe, but a JW 300 PW - 8
JBL quotes a 30-60 day backorder as of October 15; as soon as they're here and broken in, I'll weigh in. I sold JBL Pro gear in the 1970's-80's and owned 4310/4311/4315/4425 monitors for home use, so I have a frame of reference, and I guess I'm a poster child for Harman's marketing team. I currently use ATC SCM20 passive studio monitors, which are unflinchingly accurate, but not much fun.Well put.

Although I haven't heard the L100 Classics, I have a trusted friend who heard them in Munich and reports they don't sound like the originals, which is all I need to know. Now I need to find a home for my ATCs and figure out a way to keep the L100 grilles from becoming cat scratching posts!
