high performance powered compact
subwoofer system. Designed to extend low
frequency performance of any EON system. It
also offers the convenience of an integrated

Differential Drive® woofer driven by a 500 watt
Class-D digital amplifier.
The amplifier input panel offers stereo or
mono line level inputs via balanced XLR
connectors as well as a single channel speaker
level input via a ¼ inch TS phone jack. Signal
processing, crossover functionality and limiting
for the system is integrated into the input
section functionality. Overall subwoofer input
sensitivity is controlled by a single easy grip
knob and a simple switch enables polarity
reversal for sub/satellite system optimization.
Signal present and limit lights indicate
performance status. An additional switch is
provided to defeat the illuminated logo in
theatre applications.
The enclosure has been engineered for
maximum performance and absolute minimum
size. Constructed of 18 mm plywood it is
coated in JBL’s rugged DuraFlex™ finish. It
