Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

At 9.88 inches wide and 36.5 inches tall, the JBL Northridge E60 floorstanding speaker takes up a solid amount of space--far more than the smaller bookshelf speakers currently in vogue. But the impressive sound that radiates from the speaker more than justifies its size. When used in conjunction with a second stereo speaker or as part of a comprehensive surround system, the speaker makes music and movies come alive with superb depth and unmatched clarity. The speaker includes a 0.75-inch titanium-laminate dome tweeter, which reproduces high notes and dialogue at the peak of precision. Meanwhile, its 4-inch PolyPlas midrange and 8-inch PolyPlas woofer combine to deliver full-bodied mids and lows that sound rich and energetic whether you're playing complex classical recordings, bass-heavy hip-hop, or the latest sci-fi epic. Each JBL Northridge speaker also offers such features as a FreeFlow flared port, which minimizes distortion and boominess; an oval-shaped tweeter orientation called Elliptical Oblate Spheroidal (EOS), which disperses the sound at a wider angle for broader enjoyment; and a Straight-Line Signal Path (SSP) crossover network, which divides the audio signal with minimal processing for a better overall sound.

Audiophiles will appreciate the dual sets of sturdy, gold-plated, five-way binding posts, which enable both bi-amping and bi-wiring. The alternate cabling methods can offer either subtle (in the case of bi-wiring) or significant (bi-amping) improvements in audio imaging and detail. With the low, mid, and high frequencies isolated, the speakers' trio of transducers can reproduce their frequency ranges even more efficiently and with greater accuracy. In addition, the speaker's computer-designed, lock-mitered cabinet virtually eliminates distortion, and its slim European profile looks great in almost any room.

The E60's technical specifications include 175 watts of maximum recommended power, 90 watts of continuous power, and a frequency response of 40 Hz to 20 kHz. The E60 hails from JBL's Northridge E Series, which comprises not only floorstanding and bookshelf speakers, but also center channel speakers, subwoofers, and anything else you need to create a superior surround system. All Northridge speakers are magnetically shielded to protect against video interference and are covered by a five-year warranty on parts and labor.
