• Pair of classic JBL LX22 2-way bookshelf speakers from the 1980s, Made in USA
• Pure titanium dome tweeters (1”) – highly acclaimed for bright, detailed, and airy highs – no visible dents, tears, or damage (close-ups shown)
• All drivers tested and working: woofers and titanium tweeters produce sound and movement when tested directly with mobile phone audio output
• Foam surrounds on both woofers completely deteriorated/rotted – common vintage JBL issue due to age – needs refoam kit for optimal bass performance (easy DIY fix, kits available for ~$20–$40)
• Bass is present but limited without proper foam seal; highs are crisp and clear thanks to the titanium tweeters
• Cosmetic condition: Minor wear consistent with 40+ years of age – light scuffs, surface scratches, and rub marks on the black ash veneer cabinets; small areas of grille cloth damage (fraying, pulls, or minor holes in spots) – see detailed photos and video for full assessment
• Untested with full amplifier – sold AS-IS, no returns (due to vintage/repair nature)
• Perfect project speakers for refoam/restoration – retain original JBL sound with upgrade! Great for collectors, DIY audio enthusiasts, or parts (tweeters are valuable).
• Fast shipping from Hollywood/Dania Beach, Florida, USA – local pickup available.

Specifications (original):

• 2-Way Bass Reflex Design
• 6.5” Woofer (high polymer laminate)
• 1” Pure Titanium Dome Tweeter
• Frequency Response: ~50Hz–20kHz

These are iconic little JBLs with that signature “sparkle” from the titanium tweeters – the same type used in higher-end models. Foam rot is typical for 40+ year old speakers and doesn’t affect the tweeters or crossover. Easy refoam will make them sound amazing again!
