I can't find any info through JBL on this speaker and several are showing up on ebay, usely blown.

Is it a version of the 2020? Is it worth while to recone?
Is it LF or MF and can it be reconed to a 2020?

I have found it is used in JBL's MR series cabinets.

It's going to set you back about $136 to recone a 2022H (source: Orange County). The kit is the same cost as a 2206H. I guess you would call it JBL's "midline" series driver. JBL has mainly used it for low frequency in 2-way applications in MR series cabinets (MR922 and MR902). I'm not aware of it ever being used in a 3-way app as a mid driver.

Thanks info JBL DOG,

I'm more into some mid 12's and I guess those are LF. I've been thinking of replacing my 2202's with 2020's down the road a bit and if 2022's can be reconed as 2020's then that could be an option....but I don't know if the baskets are the same.

This ? is just really just day dreaming, if you know what I mean.:)

hey there....I have compared these side by side and could not find any difference in the basket.

I used them as both side fill monitor and full range interchangeably and the 2022 has better low end while the 2020 is better for vocals.

I think they both fall inbetween the "producer" and "reproducer" sound....

And for the recone price, I would keep the 2202 with it's bigger magnet and 4" coil.

Hi subwolf, thanks for the info.

It sounds to me that you would prefer the 2202's over 2020's for mid use.:confused: From what I've been able to understand, is that the 2020 is JBL's new king of midrange....handles more power, more effecint and has less distortion.:)
