As with the legendary L100 3-way bookshelf loudspeaker released in 1970, itself a consumer version of the popular JBL 4310 Pro Studio Monitor, the new L82 Classic follows on the heels of a long line of industry-leading success.

Harman International, now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Samsung Electronics, introduced the JBL L82 Classic, a modern bookshelf version of the all-time best-selling JBL L100 loudspeaker.

The L100 Classic has been a tremendous success for us delivering on the promise of JBL sound and the romance of the vintage aesthetic, says Jim Garrett, Senior Director, Product Strategy and Planning, Luxury Audio.

With the L82 Classic, we have a product that evokes the same instantly recognizable design and revered sound quality, and yet it does so with a considerably smaller physical footprint.

We expect these to be a hit with music lovers who desire the attributes of the L100 Classic in a more compact size.

Packaged and sold as mirror-image pairs, the L82 Classic loudspeakers feature a 1-inch titanium dome tweeter with acoustic lens waveguide and front-panel HF Level attenuator.

The systems 8-inch cast frame white poly cone woofer delivers a full, natural sound with bass-reflex tuning via a front-firing Slipstream port.

The L82 Classic loudspeakers feature a retro design with vintage JBL styling including an iconic Quadrex foam grille in a choice of three colors black, orange, or blue all with a black and bronze JBL logo.

Accessories for the JBL L82 Classic loudspeakers include the JS-80 floor stands (sold as a pair), to elevate and angle the enclosures to a correct tweeter height and to direct high frequencies to ear level.

Additional retro Quadrex foam grille packs (black, orange, or blue) are also available to easily fit the speakers into any decor.
