mylar for extremely low loss, and are
bypassed with polypropylene for
improved transient behavior. Network

eliminate vibration and help conduct
unwanted heat away from the network.

The network also utilizes JBL’s propri-
etary Charge-Coupled topology, which
e ffectively "charges" the network at all
times so that all components are con-
stantly on and do not have to generate
distortion while switching between on
and off stages. This is accomplished by
a battery that biases the components in
the network.

The enclosure's unusual thickness,
along with the SonoGlass™ panels,
add up to the lowest vibration, most
acoustically inert loudspeaker enclosure
presently possible to construct.
Enclosures are finished with a high-

Base and Fe e t
P ro j e c t K2 S9800 terminates in a mas-
sive base consisting of 3 layers of dif-
ferent panels along with specially
designed stainless steel spiked feet.
All unwanted mechanical vibration is
channeled down via the point-to-point
e n e rgy transmission system and dissi-
pated into the base, which is massive
enough to couple acoustically to the
floor and therefore the dwelling sub-
