DESCRIPTION

This 2-way, dual 5.25-inch center-channel speaker sets a new standard in sonic excellence. The innovative TiK bending trapezoid enclosure consists of only five surfaces, eliminating unwanted resonances and internal standing waves. Using the same wood-molding process developed by Scandinavian furniture builders, the TiK center incorporates seven layers of MDF for a rigid acoustic platform that will complement room decor. Separate 5-way, gold-plated binding post speaker terminals for each driver are mounted directly to the crossover for the shortest possible speaker cable connection, reducing the opportunity for signal loss.

The Polypropylene low-frequency drivers are co-injection molded with the surround, resulting in an efficient transducer that minimizes flexing and distortion of the cone. The cast aluminum frame provides superior rigidity to maintain precise alignment of the driver elements, without disturbing the magnetic flux. JBL's Symmetrical Field Geometry(SFG) ensures a uniform, symmetrical magnetic field. The edge-wound ribbon voice coil and vented pole piece provide extended power handling with minimal distortion.

The pure titanium dome tweeter with rubber surround takes efficiency to a new level with a rear pressure vent and low-mass aluminum voice coil that uses the dome itself to dissipate damaging heat. The TiK high-frequency driver surpasses the competition in all critical areas smoothness, transparency, efficiency, power handling and transient response.
