Have More Fun with Music: JBL L82BG Classic Black Edition Bookshelf Loudspeakers Feature Stylish Look, Titanium Tweeters, Eight-Inch Woofers, Compact Footprint
Go dark with the JBL L82BG Classic Black Edition bookshelf loudspeakers, which refresh the look of the L82 Classic with a stylish high-gloss black-painted cabinet finish, gold labels on the front and rear, and black Quadrex foam grilles with a gold JBL logo accent. L82BG Classic also benefits from the Black Edition Performance Package consisting of acoustic refinements to the drivers and an upgraded crossover network with a premium bi-wire input terminal cup.
Graced with a one-inch titanium dome tweeter with waveguide, eight-inch white-cone pure-pulp cast-frame woofer, and front-firing port, the two-way L82BG Classic shares the same DNA as its larger L100 Classic sibling and supplies similarly elevated levels of presence, dynamics, control, and responsiveness from a more compact footprint. Ideal for listeners who love a wide range of styles, the 18.61 x 11.06 x 11.65-inch (HWD) L82BG Classic also touts attenuators for custom fine-tuning ability, letting you dial-in music to your exact preferences.
Featuring unmistakable styling, L82BG Classic comes with a satin wood walnut veneer enclosure with a black painted front and rear panels for aesthetics that stand out as much as this ravishing three-way model's sound. Its ability to be positioned horizontally or vertically adds to its exceptional versatility.
From a technical angle, the 27.9-pound L82BG Classic's eight-inch driver delivers accurate tonality and a smooth midrange – be it the distinctive timbre of a human voice, or tone of a guitar, a piano, a snare drum, or any other instrument. And the tweeter is the exact same as that found in L100 Classic – a tremendous update of JBL's finest design. It supplies incredible extension and delivers an ultra-natural portrayal of upper octaves that give music its valued breath of life.
Whether you place L82BG Classic on an existing surface or situate it on the optional JS-80 floor stands that angle it gently backwards for optimal listening, the speaker is certain to recreate the sound of music in a manner that titillates the senses and, above everything else, gives you endless joy.

"If you like listening to music loud, then these boxes are happy to oblige. But, the surprising thing is that they stay interesting even when volume levels drop to a whisper, which is something that can't be said about most rivals."
—What Hi-Fi?
"Powerful, bold bass for such a small speaker, powerful dynamic contrast and wonderful retro look. Lots of speaker for the money."
