FAQ — Stage 280F
Is this loudspeaker sold individually or as a pair?
This product listing is for a single (each) JBL Stage 280F 2.5-Way Dual 8-Inch Floorstanding Loudspeaker (Each). Please select a quantity of 2 when ordering for a traditional stereo front pair.
How does the 2.5-way crossover system benefit the audio quality?
The 2.5-way design allows both 8-inch woofers to provide powerful low bass output, while rolling off the bottom woofer earlier so only the top woofer hands over clean midrange to the tweeter, preventing mid-frequency phase interference.
Can I add Dolby Atmos® height modules to this tower speaker?
Yes. The Stage 280F includes dedicated top connection terminals and internal wiring designed to seamlessly integrate JBL Stage 240H Atmos height elevation modules without visible hanging wires.
Does the speaker come with floor spikes and outrigger feet?
Yes. The tower includes heavy-duty floor outriggers along with interchangeable carpet spikes and rubber feet for stability on both carpet and hard surfaces.
