Interesting note regarding the grills. They have no seams which, if they did, would have made manufacturing very easy. Instead JBL had the grill material made by a sock manufacturer resulting in no seams. Another note is the standard grill colors were brown or blue. These have a custom color.
I had to 'dirty' up the name plates a bit to get pictures of the serial numbers. The walnut needs a little loving care but I don't think there are any disastrous marks.
Asking $800 cash. No shipping by me. Buyer can arrange packing/shipping and/or local pickup.
Speakers located in the High Desert (Victorville area) of CA. I can deliver to the Las Vegas, NV area.
