Description:

JBL's 26BE two-way, 6-inch bookshelf loudspeakers are part of the company's Studio Series and come in beech color. With features such as JBL's Elliptical Oblate Spheroidal (EOS) wave guide, an oversized Kapton voice coil, and HeatScape motor structures, these speakers produce sound with spaciousness and definition.

The speakers are magnetically shielded for distortion-free placement near video monitors and offer 150-watt maximum power handling, 48 to 20,000 Hz frequency response, 87 dB sensitivity, and 8-ohm nominal impedance. Also featured in the JBL S26 model is a 6-inch PolyPlas (polymer-coated cellulose fiber) woofer and a 1-inch pure titanium dome tweeter. The woofer is built on a cast aluminum frame, which reduces distortion and increases power-handling capability.

A low-diffraction IsoPower baffle directs the sound power into the room, reducing distortion caused by cabinet vibration. The computer-designed enclosure requires no bracing. The FreeFlow flared port increases bass response without adding unwanted port noise. JBL's custom-designed drivers allow the use of simple, Straight-line Signal Path (SSP) crossover networks with high-quality electrical components that minimize processing that could otherwise degrade the signal.

JBL's S26BE speakers are equipped with all-metal, five-way, gold-plated binding-post speaker terminals. These speakers include a two-year parts and labor warranty on the speaker enclosures and a five-year parts and labor warranty on the speaker driver and internal components.
