Description HTML Style Sheet JBL C45 Ranger METREGON - System 201 James B. Lansing C45 Metregon - Worldwide Shipping Description The JBL C45 Metregon is a timeless and classic example of Mid-Century Modern Design dating to the late 1950s. From the JBL Catalog: "The new JBL Metregon is the first loudspeaker system to offer full-field reproduction in an enclosure of moderate size. Two completely separate full-range speaker systems are housed in the Metregon. Sound from these two sets of speakers is integrated by the curved refractor panel, making use of the same acoustic principles as the JBL Ranger Paragon. The result is a full-dimensional sound stage six feet wide. There is no "hole in the middle", no "split soloist", to mar the illusion of a real performance. Like the larger Paragon, the JBL Metregon projects perfectly balanced stereophonic sound to every listener regardless of seating position. Like the Paragon, it also performs superbly as a monaural reproducing system." This C45 Metregon is loaded with the 201 system - two 130A woofers, two 175 compression drivers, two H5040 horns, and two N1200 crossovers. Dimensions: 73.75"W x 30"H x 22.5"D. Weight: 240 lbs. Produced circa 1960. Retail $1140. Complete Info on the JBL C45 Metregon Condition JBL C45 Metregon, Serial #470 shown on water decal on bottom of cabinet.
