GOOD TIME.
D TIMES GREAT.
That rock concert that was still replaying in your head the next morning? That was our work. The popcorn-scattering action
movie that pushed your seat into full recline? No need to thank us. Your all-time-favorite CDs, adrenaline-pumping video
games and attitude-altering car audio? Yes, it’s all JBL®.
IN AUDIO REPRODUCTION FOR 60 YEARS.
Wherever you are, wherever you’re going and everywhere in between, no company has more ways to engage your senses
and entertain your brain than JBL. Only JBL has the technology and the experience to bridge the worlds of consumer and
professional sound.
Building the equipment that music and movie professionals insist on and critical listeners prefer is rigorous, exacting work,
involving lots of math and engineering. But don’t let that take the fun out of it for you. All you have to do is enjoy.

THE HISTORY OF JBL
1940’s
FILM NOIR, BIG
BANDS, THE BABY
BOOM. James B. Lansing,
who led the team that first brought
sound to movies, strikes out on his
own, founding JBL. Among the
first products – a high-frequency
transducer that’s still being used
by audio professionals today.
What other high-tech product can
claim to have survived unchanged
for 60 years? The mind boggles.
6
1950’s
ROCK ’N’ ROLL,
SCHLOCKY SCI-FI,
THE COLD WAR.
JBL establishes itself as the
clear leader in studio and theater
sound. Leo Fender chooses JBL’s
D130 transducer to amplify his
electric guitar. And the pioneering
JBL Hartsfield loudspeaker
introduces true high fidelity
to homes everywhere, clearly
signaling the need for another
round of martinis.

SOUND.
1960’s
1970’s
1980’s
CARNABY ST.,
JAMES BOND,
THE SPACE AGE.
The now legendary JBL 4320
loudspeaker is the definitive
studio monitor of its day. And
after a major appearance at
Woodstock in 1969 (it was in
all the papers), JBL speakers
become standard equipment at
rock concerts around the world.
POLYESTER, STAR
WARS, DIGITAL
WATCHES. Billboard
Magazine ranks JBL studio
monitors number one. And
JBL introduces the L-100, a
consumer version of the 4320,
bringing JBL Pro technology
home for the first time. The
L-100 goes on to become one
of the best-selling speakers of
the decade, and is more fondly
remembered today than both
bellbottoms and platform shoes
combined.
VCRs, PAC-MAN,
MUSIC VIDEOS
ON TELEVISION.
The Academy of Motion Picture
Arts and Sciences chooses JBL
components to introduce 70mm
Dolby® stereo in showcase
theaters. And JBL’s titanium
diaphragms and Bi-Radial®
horns transform professional
studio monitors. At this point
in history, can realistic home
theater be far behind?
1990’s
E-MAIL, DVDs,
ONLINE TRADING.
JBL corners the new market for
THX® theater installations. JBL
near-field studio monitors take
the lead in 5.1 and 7.1 sound
mixing and mastering. And JBL
revolutionizes home theater
with Simply Cinema® systems.
The hits just keep coming.
TODAY
PLASMA TVs,
THE iPOD. JBL takes
clean, powerful sound to places
where it has never been before.
JBL On Time™ and JBL On Tour™
systems join JBL’s awardwinning line of innovative
multimedia products. You’re
spending a lot of time with
your iPod and other digital
devices. We think it should
be quality time.

TECHNOLOGIES
PURE-TITANIUM
DOME TWEETERS.
Driven by neodymium magnets,
JBL tweeters are faithfully
literal to the highest frequency
sounds, and fast enough to
reproduce them effortlessly.
Even the highs that you can
sense, but only your dog can
actually hear.
8
EOS WAVEGUIDES.
First developed for JBL
Professional LSR studio
monitors, Elliptical Oblate
Spheroidal™ waveguides
evenly disperse high
frequencies over a wider
area. So sit wherever you’re
comfortable. We’ll bring
the great sound to you.
BI-RADIAL® HORN.
JBL’s patented horn design
achieves constant directivity,
delivering smooth midrange
and high frequencies over
a wider listening area. The
result is astonishingly clear,
uncolored sound.
HEATSCAPE™
PRECISION MOTOR
TECHNOLOGY. Heat
is the enemy of good bass, but
JBL’s proprietary motor assembly
dissipates heat, protecting the
sensitive voice coil. So turn up
the volume and keep it there.
JBL can handle it.
POLYPLAS™REINFORCED
CONES. Stiffer cones
deliver more uniform pistonic
motion, for deeper, tighter bass.
PolyPlas stiffens cones without
adding significant weight (which
would only slow things down).
JBL engineers love it when stuff
like that happens.
BEHIND GREAT JBL SOUND.
STRAIGHT-LINE
SIGNAL PATH™
(SSP) NETWORKS.
By taking the shortest possible
route from the input terminals
to the transducers, this crossover
design minimizes noise and
signal loss. You’re paying for
the whole signal; we want you
to hear the whole signal.
FREEFLOW™ PORT
ARCHITECTURE.
A computer-optimized flared
aperture eliminates audible
port noise, freeing up your bass
to do its all-important thing.
(Cue the colliding asteroids.)

ADVANCED JBL
HIGH-CURRENT
CAPABILITY.
“Watts per channel” is only
one measure of amplifier
power. To handle program
peaks (which some movie
blockbusters deliver every
30 seconds or so), JBL
engineers everything –
from the design of the
transformers to the size of
the capacitors – for sheer
muscle. Filmmakers dish
it out, JBL runs with it.
10
ULTRAWIDEBANDWIDTH
DESIGN. The human ear
is capable of hearing sound in
the range of 20Hz to 20kHz.
Of course, real-world sounds
come in all frequencies, and
reproducing them realistically
requires systems with much
wider bandwidth. JBL amplifiers,
which operate in an ultrawide
range, bring a new level of
accuracy to the lowest lows
and the highest highs.
LOGIC 7. With patented
algorithms capable of producing
discrete 7.1-, 6.1- or 5.1-channel
sound fields from the tens of
thousands of two-channel
sources still in widespread use,
Logic 7 processing assures you
of the fullest, most realistic
sound possible, regardless of
source. Your old CDs and video
tapes? Still good. Better than
ever, in fact.
®
VMAx.® Not every room
that can accommodate a flatpanel video display can also
comfortably fit seven speakers
and a subwoofer. But JBL’s
VMAx technology can create
a 360-degree sound field using
just two speakers. So now any
room can get the full home
theater treatment.
MULTIROOM
TECHNOLOGY.
With A-BUS® technology
and a Zone II remote, a
simple cable connection
to an AB 1 module is all
you’ll need to distribute
and control audio in any
room of your house. Oh,
the power!
SOUND PROCESSING.
EzSET.® Achieving the
right balance among the
speakers in your home
theater system is now
virtually foolproof. Follow
a few on-screen instructions,
push a few buttons on the
remote, and have a seat.
It couldn’t be easier.

PROJECT EVEREST DD66000
MUSIC.
IN TERMS OF ITS BASIC CONFIGURATION, the Project Everest DD66000 is an
augmented two-way speaker system, a venerable JBL design. One 380mm (15") woofer crosses over to a large-format
compression driver and horn at 700Hz, the midpoint of the audio spectrum. A second 380mm woofer reinforces the bass
frequencies from below 30Hz to 150Hz, while an ultrahigh-frequency driver operates exclusively in the ethereal realm
above 20kHz.
The choice of crossover points minimizes the sonic degradation that can be caused by even a high-quality dividing
network. The woofers are phased to achieve uniform directivity across their entire operating range, while greatly
enhancing performance at the low end. With unparalleled dynamic linearity and harmonic distortion levels approaching
those of a fine amplifier, we know of no loudspeaker system better able to realistically reproduce the subtlest nuances
of any musical source material than Project Everest DD66000.
Project Everest’s exquisite and flawlessly finished enclosure, the work of industrial designer Daniel Ashcraft, is itself an
integral system component, playing a key role in overall performance. The elegant curves of the front baffle, which recall
the legendary design of JBL’s Hartsfield and Paragon speakers, form the side walls of a large high-frequency horn, along
with top and bottom flares molded of high-impact SonoGlass.® These curved panels, created in a proprietary manufacturing
process, are joined to flat MDF panels with a complex internal bracing system. The dual-woofer baffle is a separately
braced six-sided assembly – covered in select, genuine leather – which interlocks into the main enclosure, forming an
extremely rigid, vibration-free structure.

Effortlessly delivering the full bandwidth and dynamics of the newest digital media – without suppression at
any listening level – Project K2® speakers reveal subtleties you’ve never before experienced in recorded music.
Every detail of the design and construction of these systems – such as the horns, cast in JBL’s proprietary
SonoGlass material, and the resonance-free enclosures – has been directed toward a single goal:
uncompromised sonic performance.
K2 S9800SE – The K2 S9800 Special Edition, with advanced pure-beryllium ultrahigh- and highfrequency drivers and a 380mm (15") pulp-cone woofer, represents a significant leap in sound and design.
The K2 S9800SE crossover can be bypassed for active bi-amplification via an external crossover.
K2 S5800 – With JBL’s own Charge-Coupled Linear Definition™ system, crossover distortion is
eliminated. Moreover, the K2 S5800’s bass driver is designed for large excursion and power linearity, with
ferrite magnets and a Symmetrical Field Geometry™ magnetic circuit.
S4800 – With both an aluminum-diaphragm compression driver and a titanium-diaphragm compression
driver, the S4800 offers high output, high sensitivity and high durability. This system is perfect for bringing
superlative fidelity and musical realism to small and medium-sized rooms.

PROJECT ARRAY™
THE FIRST OF AN INNOVATIVE GENERATION of high-performance
loudspeakers that combine advanced compression drivers and direct-radiation technology, Project Array™
loudspeakers are derived directly from the JBL Professional systems now in use in movie theaters and
concert venues worldwide. The very thing that makes the design unconventional (the constant-directivity
horns) is what ensures that you’ll hear immense UHF and HF sound, along with classic JBL bass.
ALL THE NUANCES OF
It’s the same proven formula that has earned JBL MOST OF THE WORLD’S THX®
THEATER INSTALLATIONS.

Ti Series TL260.
CLASSIC HOME
and, in some cases, they’re right. But JBL’s traditional loudspeakers are classics of an entirely different kind. Like the chic roadster and
soulful rock and roll (neither of which has gone out of style), JBL Classic loudspeakers are the real thing. They’ve led the way, kept ahead
of the times and inspired a kind of customer loyalty that can only be described as fierce.
Today, JBL Classic speakers are capable of accurately reproducing even the most dynamic high-definition sources with an utter fidelity
that will compel you to become lost in your favorite music. They’re definitely not your parents’ loudspeakers (although we’re pretty sure
your parents would approve).

STUDIO™ L SERIES
THE LOUDSPEAKERS THAT
THE JBL SOUND is what brings you to
your feet at a concert, and to the edge of your seat at
the cinema. It’s also how music recordings and movie
soundtracks are created, mixed and mastered in the
studio. With materials and technologies that extend its
sonic performance far beyond the industry standard of
20kHz, the Studio™ L Series brings the recording studio
right into your living room.
Ultrahigh-frequency sound – beyond the range of
the human ear, but sensed nonetheless – has always
been missing at home. Now Studio L loudspeakers bring
UHF to residential music and movie systems, for a more
lifelike experience. With a range of models in a choice of
finishes and with an array of placement and mounting
options, Studio L speakers are easily integrated into any
home environment. So sit back and enjoy realistic, fullspectrum audio, as only JBL can deliver it.

full dynamics of today’s most exciting movies and music. That’s what’s important. (At least that’s what’s important, once
you know you can afford them.)

CINEMA SOUND SYSTEMS.
CONFUSING DAYS BACK IN THE MID-90’s, when intrepid home theater pioneers struggled to
understand the difference between a satellite and a subwoofer, and faced a mystifying array of A/V inputs and outputs? Trying times.
But then JBL introduced the Simply Cinema® system, and the modern era of home theater for everyone was born. Having introduced the
original one-box, plug-and-play approach to movie magic, JBL continues to lead the way all these years later, with hassle-free systems for
every taste and budget. Want to add real excitement to everyday life at home?
...JBL CINEMA SOUND SYSTEMS MAKE IT EASY.

DYNAMICS AND FIDELITY
BUILT OUR REPUTATION...
THE SOUNDPOINT® SERIES BRINGS JBL’S BEST THINKING – and many of our most
advanced technologies – to in-wall and in-ceiling speakers. Unique housings and rubber mounts dramatically reduce resonances between
the speaker and the wall, so the full sonic clarity of the titanium-laminate tweeters and cones comes through loud and clear. “Wallrattling performance” is just an expression, not something you actually want to experience.

powerful, compact 2.1-channel JBL Spot™ satellite and subwoofer system comes with interchangeable black and white outer covers, with
an eye-opening array of optional covers (JBL wrappers) in other colors and patterns also available. Be bold or subtle. Go retro or

EXPRESS YOURSELF. The JBL Spyro™ 2.1-channel system looks and sounds like no other personal sound system
out there. With a pair of delicately beautiful satellites and an innocent-looking subwoofer, JBL Spyro components may seem demure.
But they’re engineered to pound out rich, authoritative JBL sound from nearly any multimedia source. Express your personal sense of
style with optional subwoofer covers (JBL wrappers), available in a variety of colors and patterns. Match your décor, your desktop
wallpaper, your iPod case or your school colors. Or have it one way today and another way tomorrow. Because flower power is still about
doing your own thing.
