JBL Stage 2 240B Compact Bookshelf Speakers

JBL Stage 2 240B Bookshelf Stereo Speakers

Overview

JBL’s Stage 240B bookshelf stereo speakers deliver clear, lively sound in a compact design that fits easily into small rooms, offices, bedrooms, or apartment living spaces. As the most space-friendly model in the Stage 2 series, the JBL 240B offers a balanced, enjoyable presentation that suits vinyl lovers, casual streamers, and anyone looking to build a simple, great-sounding hi-fi system without dominating the room.

At the core of the Stage 240B is a 4.5″ polycellulose-ribbed cone woofer from JBL that brings clean midrange performance and surprisingly confident bass for its size. It’s supported by a rear-ported bass-reflex cabinet with a flared, low-turbulence port — helping the speaker deliver fuller, smoother low-end response in small or close-to-wall placements. For listeners wanting deeper impact, the JBL Stage 2 240B pairs naturally with a compact subwoofer for a more complete full-range experience.

High frequencies are handled by a 1″ anodised aluminium dome tweeter housed in JBL’s HDI™ (High Definition Imaging) waveguide. This design improves dispersion and imaging, offering consistent detail and clarity even when you move off-axis — perfect for relaxed listening or multi-use rooms where ideal speaker positioning isn’t always possible.

With a nominal 6-ohm impedance and 85 dB sensitivity, the JBL Stage 240B is easy to drive and works well with modest integrated amplifiers, entry-level receivers, or compact desktop amps. Whether used as the main pair in a stereo setup or placed as rear surround channels in a home-cinema system, the 240B compact bookshelf speakers integrates easily into a wide range of audio configurations.

Finished in Espresso or Latte woodgrain, the JBL Stage 240B blends cleanly into modern interiors without demanding attention. Its compact footprint makes it an excellent upgrade from Bluetooth speakers or soundbars, offering true stereo imaging, wider soundstage, and a more engaging listening experience.

For music lovers who want real hi-fi performance in a small, flexible package, the JBL Stage 240B delivers a smart balance of size, sound quality, and everyday usability.
