JBL L52 Classic Bookshelf Loudspeakers
JBL L52 CLASSIC BOOKSHELF LOUDSPEAKERS
JBL has launched the smallest member of the Classic Series, the new JBL L52 Classic bookshelf loudspeaker.
Following on the heels on the larger JBL L100 Classic and JBL L82 Classic models, the compact L52 Classic has a size that allows it to work in a variety of applications from stand-mount, to bookshelf, to tabletop, to wall-mount. The appearance of the L52 Classic echoes that of its larger siblings with a walnut wood veneer enclosure and a Quadrex foam grille available in a choice of black, blue, or orange.

Designed as a scaled-down version of the JBL L82 Classic, the JBL L52 Classic is a two-way design with a 0.75-inch titanium dome tweeter paired with an acoustic lens waveguide and a 5.25-inch white cone, cast-frame woofer. A premium crossover network design ensures optimum system performance, while a front panel HF level attenuator allows the sound to be tailored to its environment. Enclosure tuning is bass-reflex via a front-firing tuned port, and a set of binding post speaker terminals provide a secure connection to speaker cables. The enclosure is finished in walnut wood veneer and includes a pair of threaded inserts on the rear panel for use with third-party wall mount brackets.
