HARMAN KARDON LXE550
Owner's Manual

Pure Titanium, Smooth Dome Tweeter with Diamond Surround: Provides low resonance frequency, low distortion, flat and smooth high frequency response, and no break-up in the audio range. The result is a well-defined high frequency output. High Polymer Laminate Midrange Drivers and Woofers: Combine to provide tight bass and well-defined, smooth midrange, without harshness, stridency, or listener fatigue. High Quality Crossover Network: The computer-optimized dividing network employs up to third-order (18 dB per octave) crossover sections. JBL�s use of high quality capacitors and lowloss/low-distortion inductors assures freedom from phase or amplitude distortions. Neoprene-covered Baffle-board: Specially designed, acoustically damping, and absorbent Neoprene foam surface surrounds the speaker�s drivers and absorbs diffraction waves. Acoustically Optimized Cabinet and Grille Design: Provide smooth uncolored sound and eliminate diffraction and unwanted resonances.

INTRODUCTION Congratulations on choosing JBL loudspeakers. Their highly accurate, uncolored and balanced sound character will greatly increase your enjoyment of recorded music. JBL speakers are built with careful attention to detail, using only the highest quality materials. They will provide many years of excellent performance. The LXE Series rivals the performance of loudspeakers available at considerably higher price points; and achieves remarkable imaging, sound stage, and musicality. Acoustic Reflection Cancellation (ARC): Provides smooth, well-defined high frequency response. Because the LXE tweeter faceplate has no concentric or parallel lines, it produces high frequency signals without diffraction.
