2-way 4.5” (114 mm) bookshelf speaker
Designed at JBL’s world-renowned Acoustic Design Excellence Center in Northridge, California, the Stage 240B is the smallest shelf speaker in the JBL Stage series. Its small footprint delivers impressive power. The 240B is versatile enough to be used as a main or surround speaker. It features a 2-way design with next-generation patented High-Definition Imaging (HDI™) waveguide geometry, a 1” (25 mm) anodized aluminum dome tweeter, and a 4.5” (114 mm) polycellulose Ribbed Cone woofer for JBL’s signature deep bass.
4.5” (114 mm) polycellulose Ribbed Cone woofer
Each Stage 2 speaker features a Ribbed Cone woofer made from polycellulose. This paper cone features a proprietary blend of materials added for added rigidity, and the Ribbed Cone construction is inspired by legendary JBL styling. These woofers deliver deep, accurate bass that fills the room.
1” (25 mm) anodized aluminum tweeter in next-generation HDI™ waveguide
JBL has carefully studied the structures of previous waveguides and developed a new complex geometry that improves directivity, reduces diffraction and ensures a neutral frequency response both on and off the center axis. The Stage 2 speakers combine the HDI horn with an anodized aluminum dome tweeter, which improves efficiency and dynamics. The new structure ensures a neutral frequency response both on and off the center axis.
Precision 2-way crossover filter
The crossovers installed in the Stage 2 speakers are made from premium components. The high-frequency section features air core voice coils and mylar capacitors to reduce distortion and improve sound reproduction. The bass section uses laminate core voice coils and electrolytic capacitors. These premium materials are able to handle more power and transmit energy faster, improving system performance.
