JBL Stage 2 280F 2.5-Way Stereo Floorstanding Loudspeaker

 

Overview

The JBL Stage 280F is the flagship tower in the Stage 2 series — a powerful, full-range loudspeaker designed for listeners who want deep bass, wide sound dispersion, and a dynamic, room-filling presentation without moving to oversized or visually dominant speakers. It blends JBL’s acoustic engineering with a modern, understated design that fits comfortably into a wide range of homes.

At the heart of the 280F are dual 8″ polycellulose-ribbed woofers, delivering impactful, controlled bass and a rich midrange foundation. This dual-woofer setup provides weight and scale that bookshelf speakers can’t match, giving everything from jazz and acoustic tracks to rock, electronic music, and movie soundtracks a stronger sense of depth and energy.

High frequencies are handled by a 1″ anodised aluminium dome tweeter, mounted in JBL’s HDI™ (High Definition Imaging) waveguide — a design that enhances dispersion and ensures consistent clarity across a wide listening area. Whether you’re seated in the centre or off to the side, the The Stage 280F speakers from JBL maintains crisp detail and stable imaging.

The cabinet features a bass-reflex enclosure with dual rear-firing flared ports, extending low-frequency performance down to 33 Hz (±6 dB). This gives the speaker strong low-end reach for music and genuine cinematic presence for home theatre use — making it capable as a standalone full-range tower or even more impactful when paired with a subwoofer for the deepest bass notes.

Despite its output potential, the 280F remains easy to integrate with modern components. Its 6-ohm nominal impedance and 91 dB sensitivity allow pairing with a wide range of integrated amplifiers or AV receivers, while its 20–225 W recommended amplification provides plenty of flexibility for both standard and high-performance setups.

With clean lines, magnetically attached grilles, and Latte or Espresso woodgrain finishes, the JBL Stage 280F blends naturally into living rooms, media areas, and dedicated listening spaces. Its slim, modern profile ensures it looks as confident as it sounds.

For listeners wanting strong bass, detailed highs, and a room-filling soundstage in a stylish, home-friendly tower, the JBL Stage 280F delivers flagship performance with real-world versatility.
