THE GOOD TIMES GREAT.
That rock concert that was still replaying in your head the next morning? That was the work of JBL® engineering. The
popcorn-scattering action movie that pushed your seat into full recline? Courtesy of JBL home theater speakers. Your
all-time-favorite CDs, adrenaline-pumping video games and attitude-altering car audio? Yes, JBL products are with you
for all your good times.
AUTHORITY IN AUDIO REPRODUCTION FOR sixty YEARS.
Wherever you are, wherever you’re going and everywhere in between, no brand has more ways to engage your senses
and entertain your brain than JBL. JBL technology and experience bridge the worlds of consumer and professional sound.
Building the equipment that music and movie professionals need and critical listeners demand 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
6
1940s
1950s
FILM NOIR, BIG
BANDS, THE BABY
BOOM. James B. Lansing,
who led the team that first
brought high-quality sound to
movie theaters, strikes out on
his own, founding James B.
Lansing Sound, Incorporated.
Among the first products: a highfrequency transducer that audio
professionals still use today.
What other high-tech product can
claim to have survived unchanged
for sixty years? The mind boggles.
ROCK ’N’ ROLL,
SCHLOCKY SCI-FI,
THE COLD WAR.
JBL, Inc., establishes itself as the
clear leader in studio and theater
sound. Leo Fender chooses
the JBL D130 transducer to
amplify his electric guitar. And
the pioneering JBL Hartsfield
loudspeaker introduces true high
fidelity to homes everywhere,
­signaling listeners to relax and
turn up the music.

SOUND.
1960s
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.
1970s
POLYESTER,
STAR WARS,
DIGITAL WATCHES.
Billboard magazine ranks JBL
studio monitors number one. And
the L100 – a consumer version of
the 4320 – brings JBL Pro
technology home for the first time.
The L100 goes on to become one
of the best-selling speakers of
the decade and is more fondly
remembered today than bell
bottoms and platform shoes
combined.
1980s
1990s
TODAY
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 titanium
diaphragms and Bi-Radial®
horns transform professional
studio monitors. At this point
in history, can realistic home
theater be far behind?
E-MAIL, DVDs,
ONLINE TRADING.
JBL speakers corner the market
for THX® theater installations.
JBL near-field studio monitors
take the lead in 5.1-channel
and 7.1-channel sound mixing
and mastering. And JBL Simply
Cinema® systems revolutionize
home theater. The hits just keep
coming.
PLASMA TVs,
THE iPod. Clean, powerful
sound goes to places where it has
never been before. JBL On Time™
and JBL On Tour™ systems join the
award-winning line of innovative
JBL multimedia products. You’re
spending a lot of time with
your iPod and other digital
devices. Why shouldn’t it
be quality time?

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.
EOS WAVEGUIDES.
First developed for JBL
Professional LSR studio
monitors, Elliptical Oblate
Spheroidal™ waveguides
evenly disperse high
frequencies over a wide
area. So sit wherever you’re
comfortable. The great sound
will come to you.
BI-RADIAL® HORN.
The patented JBL horn design
achieves constant directivity,
delivering smooth midrange
and high frequencies over
a wide listening area. The
result is astonishingly clear,
uncolored sound.
HEATSCAPE™
PRECISION MOTOR
TECHNOLOGY. Heat
is the enemy of good bass,
but the proprietary JBL motor
assembly dissipates heat,
protecting the sensitive voice
coil. So turn the volume up
and keep it there. JBL products
can handle it.
ADVANCED JBL SOUND
PROCESSING.
8
POLYPLAS™REINFORCED
CONES. Stiffer cones
deliver more uniform pistonic
motion for deeper, tighter
bass. PolyPlas™ technology
stiffens cones without adding
significant weight that would
only slow things down. JBL
engineers love it when stuff
like that happens.
HIGH-CURRENT
CAPABILITY.
“­Watts per channel” is only
one measure of amplifier
power. To handle program
peaks (which some movie
blockbusters deliver every
thirty seconds or so), JBL
engineers design everything –
from the transformers to the
size of the capacitors – for
sheer muscle. Filmmakers
dish it out, JBL systems run
with it.
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 very
wide bandwidth. JBL am­pli­fi­
ers, which operate in an ultra­
wide range, bring a new level
of accuracy to the lowest lows
and the highest highs.
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.)
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 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.
TECHNOLOGIES
BEHIND GREAT
JBL SOUND.
VMAx®. Not every room
that can accommodate a flatpanel video display can also
comfortably fit seven speakers
and a subwoofer. But 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® tech and a
Zone II remote control,
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!
TECHNOLOGY/SOUND
STRAIGHT-LINE
SIGNAL PATH™
(SSP) NETWORKS.
By taking the shortest possible
route from the input terminals
to the transducers, this cross­
over design minimizes noise
and signal loss. You’re paying
for the whole signal; you
should hear the whole signal.
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 control, and have a
seat. It couldn’t be easier.

PROJECT EVEREST DD66000
MUSIC.
HIGH-END SYSTEMS
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 low frequency 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 even a high-quality dividing network can cause.
We phase the woofers to achieve uniform directivity across their entire operating range while greatly enhancing
performance at the low end. The unparalleled dynamic linearity and harmonic-distortion levels approach those of a fine
amplifier. Is there a loudspeaker system in existence that can realistically reproduce the subtlest nuances of any musical
source material better 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 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® material. We join these curved panels, which we create
in a proprietary manufacturing process, to flat MDF (medium-density fiberboard) 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.

DREAMING.
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 proprietary SonoGlass material,
and the resonance-free enclosures – has been directed toward a single goal: uncompromised sonic performance.
K2 S9900 – With its 380mm (15") 1500AL-1 pulp cone woofer, its curved front and rear enclosure,
integrated horn lips and a 100mm compression driver, the K2 S9900 represents a significant leap in sound and
design. Every attempt has been made to create a system that sounds great, looks stunning and is built to last
using modern techniques and the best materials available. This is where the longstanding history of outstanding
JBL engineering, both sonic and visual, comes into play: The K2 S9900 delivers a musical experience that few
other loudspeakers can match.

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 that movie theaters and concert venues
now use worldwide. The very thing that makes the design unconventional (the constant-directivity horns)
ensures that you’ll hear immense UHF and HF sound, along with classic JBL bass.
ALL THE NUANCES OF THE
It’s the same proven formula that has put JBL systems in MOST OF THE
WORLD’S THX® THEATER INSTALLATIONS.

CLASSIC HOME
... and, in some cases, they’re right. But traditional JBL loudspeakers are classics of an entirely different kind. Like the chic roadster and
soulful rock 'n' 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 we can only describe as fierce.
Today, JBL Classic speakers can accurately reproduce 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).

LS SERIES
CLASSIC SYSTEMS
EXQUISITE CRAFTSMANSHIP.
the ls series is a NEW EXPRESSION OF THE MOST ADVANCED
JBL TECHNOLOGIES AVAILABLE. Loud, clear, stunningly realistic audio reproduction for public
spaces and private homes has been a JBL hallmark for more than 60 years. JBL has achieved this distinction by using the most
innovative technologies and materials in both professional and consumer systems, up and down the product line.
It’s how flagship products become bestsellers, and how the JBL Pro Sound Comes Home™ ideal becomes a reality. The
high-performance JBL LS Series loudspeakers share the design philosophy and signature Bi-Radial®-horn/compression-driver
configuration of the widely acclaimed JBL Project K2® and Project Array – as well as of the Project Everest DD66000, the most
uncannily lifelike musical instrument ever to bear the JBL name. The system looks elegant as well, due to its streamlined design
and its sumptuous black or mahogany surfaces. Considering the lineage of the LS Series, it is only natural that you might expect
greatness from LS speakers. Greatness was a design specification, and it’s the very thing these remarkable, new loudspeakers
were born to deliver.
35
THE IDEAL HOME AUDIO SYSTEM DOESN’T FAVOR MUSIC OVER
MOVIES, OR SMALL ROOMS OVER LARGER ONES. The ideal home audio system has the
raw power to reproduce bass and midrange frequencies without any effort or distortion at any listening level, as well as the finesse to
deliver brilliantly clean high- and ultrahigh-frequency sound directly to your ears, undiminished by interaction with walls and furniture.
In the high frequencies, LS Series speakers employ a constant-directivity HF compression driver and UHF ring tweeter in a unique,
computer-optimized baffle that suppresses phase interference and signal loss. The realism of low-frequency sound is heightened with
high-performance, dual pulp-cone woofers in a staggered network design for exceptionally rich bass response. Working together, these
technologies ensure that LS Series speakers render out-of-this-world action sequences and delicate, otherworldly musical passages with
equal clarity and accuracy. A curved lower baffle presents acoustic interference with the lower woofer while gradually transitioning into
the glossy side panels, available in deep black or rich mahogany.
Music and movies are made to be enjoyed. JBL has engineered LS Series speakers to ensure that you’ll enjoy them to their fullest,
whatever your taste in entertainment may be.

IN THE WALL. IN THE CEILING. BETWEEN WALLS AND CEILINGS.
ON THE WALL. ON THE FLOOR ... JBL engineers have come up with more ways to fill your
rooms with great sound than just about anyone else. The unique JBL Control NOW™ speakers fit in more spaces than
some homes even have. JBL Control® Series monitors take true studio sound to places where only boom boxes have been
before, including outdoors. And SoundPoint® and HTi™ Series in-wall and in-ceiling speakers bring JBL power and realism
to built-in whole-house or home theater systems for both new construction and retrofits. If you can’t decide on
the ideal JBL system for you, talk to your friendly, neighborhood custom installers. They’ll know just what to do.

JBL CONTROL NOW
JBL CONTROL NOW AW
ONE SPEAKER, DOZENS OF POSSIBILITIES. The shape of the JBL Control NOW™ speaker makes
it perhaps the most flexible speaker ever developed. Mounting options for single JBL Control Now speakers and multispeaker arrays
are literally too numerous to list in detail. But just to get you thinking in the right direction, here are a few possibilities.
You can mount single speakers horizontally or vertically on walls, in corners between walls or between walls and ceilings. They can
sit horizontally or vertically on a shelf or tabletop. You can mount arrays of two, three or four speakers virtually anywhere, in any
environment – on walls, on ceiling poles, even spanning reverse corners – and you can configure them for either single-channel
or single-point stereo use. With an included floor-stand adapter, they can work with a multitude of optional third-party
stands. And everything a JBL Control NOW speaker can do indoors, JBL Control NOW AW speakers can do outdoors.§
Use them in traditional stereo setups, for home theaters or for background and whole-house music systems. Forget the usual
technical challenges that come with wiring multiple-speaker systems. JBL Control NOW speakers eliminate impedance restrictions
with a wiring adapter that makes configuring multi-unit arrays simple. If your amplifier can drive one JBL Control NOW
loudspeaker, it can drive up to four of them.
