Legendary sound. Flexible placement.
For those who know what they’re looking for when it comes to a loudspeaker system – and who want
it flexible besides – we give you the new JBL Studio 220 2-way bookshelf loudspeakers.
As part of the groundbreaking 9-piece JBL Studio 2 loudspeaker series, the Studio 220 propels
you into a world where legacy sound-craft and advanced technology go hand-in-hand in shaping a
listening experience like none before. The Studio 220’s 4" PolyPlas midrange driver is designed to

with the sleek, urbane design of the loudspeaker itself – both inside and out – and you’re dealing with
a rare breed of sonic horsepower and brainpower ready to define its era.
