The Compact Powerhouse of the Stage 2 Lineup
Clocking in as the smallest speaker within JBL’s Stage 2 series, the JBL Lifestyle Stage 240B delivers a room-filling sound that defies its compact construction. This bookshelf speaker’s 4.5-inch polycellulose ribbed-cone woofer delivers an impressive bass response down to 53Hz, granting you accurate low end with plenty of depth and punch. The woofer is paired with a 1-inch anodized aluminum tweeter that supplies crisp high-end detail in spades, along with JBL’s HDI (High-definition Imaging) waveguide geometry to ensure minimal diffraction, superb directivity, and neutral on-/off-axis response. And while each speaker in the Stage 2 series sports high-class aesthetic appointments, you also get an array of functional upgrades, including 5-way binding posts, anti-slip pads, a floating front baffle, and magnetically attached grilles. Enliven your space in style with the thoroughly modern flair and full-bodied sound of JBL Lifestyle’s compact Stage 240B bookshelf speakers.

Premier Stage 2 woofers and tweeters
JBL Stage 2 series speakers come equipped with top-quality polycellulose ribbed-cone woofers crafted from pure pulp and a proprietary mix of cutting-edge materials. This rigidity-enhancing construction allows Stage 2 series woofers to replicate your favorite music with a rich and powerful response that fills the room with deep bass. To take care of your high-end information, the woofer is then paired with an anodized aluminum tweeter in JBL’s next-generation HDI waveguide — JBL tells Sweetwater that this combo results in superior directivity, decreased diffraction, and a neutral frequency response both off- and on-axis.
