Jensen H-222
Not much is documented about the Jensen H-222. The only period coverage on record is Jensen's own advertising, not independent review. In early 1956 the company ran a campaign in the audio press presenting the H-222 as a true two-way system - two separate and distinct loudspeakers - with a compression-driver horn-loaded tweeter, a multi-cell horn, and a high-frequency balance control built into the speaker system. Audio (February 1956, p.53) and Hi-Fi Music at Home (January 1956, p.3) both carried the ad. The copy argued that anyone being asked to spend $40 to $130 on a loudspeaker was entitled to those features.
Beyond those advertisements, the record goes quiet. No independent test report, specification sheet, or confirmed production dates have surfaced. By early 1959 Jensen's magazine advertising was leading with the newer H-223F coaxial, so the H-222 appears to belong to the earlier part of the decade.
