Unfortunately JBL dropped most of the components and we had to move forward. Using only a condenser to filter the frequencies below 7kHz going to the slot, Philip got a smooth change from the mids to the highs and with a unity high quality electronic stereo crossover we had a great 2 way active box for studio use. These featured the more recent 2213-H ceramic JBL ( or alternatively the 128-H with foam surround for a bit lower resonance) and the 104-H, then a recent 4" that fitted the mounting specs of the LE-5, but with a much more linear frequency response. In 2004, we introduced in Barcelona its definitive version (or so we expected) the 240B. With an active 2 or 3 way crossover and 2 ir 3 stereo amps, these studio monitors gave a much better definition in the entire spectrum. Same bass unit (the 123A), the LE-5 in the available version if LE5-2 Alnico was not at hand and the 2405-H slot coming in at around 6 or 7k. In the mid eighties Phil Newell designed an active version of the L100.
