September 07, 2010 — Article

US-based speaker manufacturer JBL has announced the launch of its Studio 1 range with its distinctive new ‘Weave’ design.

The three-strong range consists of the standmount Studio 130, the centre-channel Studio 120c and the floorstanding Studio 180 and Studio 190.

The top-of-the-range Studio 190 is a three-and-a-half-way with two 6.5in bass/mid drivers with PolyPlas cones plus CMMD Lite tweeter domes with JBL’s own Bi-Radial wave guides designed to deliver “exceptional clarity and realism with outstanding bass response”.

The Studio 180 is a slightly smaller three-way with a single 6.5in bass/mid driver with PolyPlas cone.

The two-way Studio 130 (pictured) is designed to be used as a satellite in a home cinema system and features a 4in bass/mid driver and 1in tweeter while the Studio 120c uses two 4in drivers and the 1in tweeter.

The JBL Studio 1 speakers should be available in the autumn at these approximate prices:

  • Studio 190: £660 (pair)
  • Studio 180: £500 (pair)
  • Studio 130: £210 (pair)
  • Studio 120c: £165 (single)
