  • Good fix to a great speaker

    Replaced the deteriorating grill cover material in my JBL100 speakers very nicely. It does not replace the walnut frame, so you need to save that and use it. I hoped the grills had new walnut frames since mine were damaged, but no. But the material fits perfectly and the velcro holds the material in securely and easily. My speakers were awful looking, and now they look like new, except for the walnut frames, that is not easily noticeable.

  • These grill covers make our mid-1970s speakers look GREAT.

    These grill inserts are EXCELLENT. My wife bought a pair of JBL Classic L100 speakers in the mid-1970s, and the original foam on the grill frame had deteriorated long ago. These new inserts are an exact fit into the wood frame that attaches to the speaker cabinet. The inserts are not a replica of the original foam grills, and were never advertised as such. We ordered black cloth, and the inserts look stunning. The inserts were packaged well and arrived in perfect shape. After attaching the new grill inserts, the speakers have regained their dignified look. They were looking a bit scruffy, and we thought about shopping for replacement speakers. With these new grill covers, we are no longer planning to replace the speakers. After looking several times on various internet sites for replacement grill inserts, it appears that the options are limited. My wife and I are quite happy with these inserts. I give these my unqualfied and highest recommendation.

  • Make your classic speakers look as good as they sound

    If you love your JBL-100s, you should definitely treat them to fresh grilles from Huntley Audio. I had some pretty old and decayed black foam grilles that really didn't do these classic speakers justice. The new ones from Huntley in the classic burnt orange color make them look almost like new again. The fit was perfect and required no modification. The fabric is well-aligned with the frames. And they were shipped with care and attention to detail. Given that new foam grilles are $350+ if you can even find them, this was a steal and so worth it. I really appreciate Huntley Audio providing a way to make great vintage speakers look as good as they sound.

  • Beautiful frames and grills for JBL L-100A

    I love my JBL L-100 Century speakers and decided to refurbish them. I ordered these grills as part of that. These speakers cannot use a standard rectangular frame without substantial modification, and they must be designed to fit properly. They look beautiful, fit snugly, and have really nice speaker cloth. They're not inexpensive but given the law of supply and demand, they are reasonable. Nowhere I know of makes these at a better price. And since a new pair of these speakers cost $4000.00, the price seems even more reasonable.

  • Replacement JBL Grille Inserts and Frames

    Awesome build quality and great fabric selection. I didn't think it was possible to find replacement grilles for my 30 year old JBL speakers, but Huntley Audio makes them - and they are beautiful. With Huntley's help, I turned my worn out looking speakers into like new. Would definitely recommend Huntley to anyone looking for a quality replacement grille.

  • Better than the original, functional and stylish and excellent value at this price.

    They fit well, using Velcro, rather than the four cylindrical pegs in the JBL L100 original speaker foam grilles. The new grilles are also more acoustical transparent, using more standard speaker grille cloth (available in a variety of colours) than the old JBL foam "waffle" grilles, so you may want to tweak the two crossover controls of each speaker, or make equalization adjustments on your receiver or preamplifier or home theatre surround sound preprocessor.

  • Beautiful top notch craftsmanship!

    These ready to install cloth grill inserts are perfect. The burnt orange is the correct color. Top notch craftsmanship. I miss my old foam grills but this are easy to clean and they will not deteriorate like my old foam grills did.
