K2S5800 (serv.man2) - JBL Audio User Guide / Operation Manual. Page 3

Thank you for selecting a Project
K2 S5800 loudspeaker system. It
represents the sum total of our
research and developmental
efforts in sound reproduction over
the last half century. We have
labored to create a loudspeaker
system with no acoustical or elec-
trical limitations whatsoever. While
the Project K2 S5800 loudspeaker
is itself a new development, the
goal behind it goes right back to
the earliest days of the original
James B. Lansing Sound Company.

But it is your listening pleasure that
ultimately determines how success-
ful we are in this endeavor. It is
solely in the interest of ensuring a
perfect listening experience that
we ask you to faithfully follow the
setup and operation procedures
outlined in this owner’s guide.

This guide exists for several 
purposes. As your owner’s manual,
it contains all necessary back-
ground information and detailed
instructions for setting up your
Project K2 S5800 loudspeaker 
system, including unpacking the
loudspeaker, selecting the correct
location, speaker wire, wiring
scheme and amplification, and
connecting it to its associated
electronics. This information will
be found in Chapters 3 through 7.
In addition, we have included a
detailed description of Project
K2 S5800 loudspeakers (Chapter 2)
so that you may become thoroughly
acquainted with its unique design
and technological features.

Although physically and materially
imposing, the setup procedure of
the Project K2 S5800 loudspeaker
system is relatively simple. We
strongly urge you to read this 
manual thoroughly before you
begin, and consult it frequently
throughout the process.
Considerations must be made in
placing the speakers; their stature
makes it imperative that you
become familiar with the entire
setup process in advance.

Also, we believe that the historical
and technical information included
will add immeasurably to your total
enjoyment of the loudspeaker 
system. Project K2 S5800 is unpar-
alleled in the field of sound repro-
duction. The story and principles
behind it are an interesting, inform-
ative and fitting precursor to a life-
time of musical enjoyment.
