THERE ARE THREE STAGES IN ENGINEERING LOUDSPEAKERS AT JBL: Computer-aided design and modeling, prototyping and testing. JBL speakers are thoroughly tested and qualified at each stage to ensure that the finished product performs flawlessly. Every speaker design starts with physical dimensions that fa...

Anechoic Chambers: JBL’s anechoic chambers are expensive … but worth the investment. The baffles on the walls of the chamber absorb sound at all audible frequencies. In this setting, JBL engineers can assess critical details of the speaker’s performance without the effects of extraneous noise or ref...

THE DIRECTIVITY INDEX (DI): HOW WE MEASURETHE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ON-AXIS RESPONSEAND OFF-AXIS RESPONSE The Directivity Index (DI) is the ratio of the intensity of the sound in the listeningwindow to the average of the intensity of the sound radiated at all angles (soundpower). We make measurements...

That’s a much closer match to the directivity of the woofer,which is focused into the listening window in the crossover region. The crossover r...
Page 10 - SYSTEM DESIGN USING THE
Many speaker systems are designed for on-axis listening and often include a listening window that’s ±30° from the speaker’s 0° axis. That’s great for homeaudio or other applications where speakers can be easily pointed at a single listener. In a car, however, the possible speaker mounting locations ...

11 Figure 20. Figure 19. WOOFER MOUNTING CONSIDERATIONS • All woofers require a rigid baffle and isolation between the front and back of the speaker for best low-frequency extension. • The 660GTi woofer may be used in an infinite baffle or in a small sealed enclosure with a volume equal to or larger...
