JBL 705i, 708i Data Sheet

INTRODUCING

COMPACT, INSTALL

The fi rst in JBL’s new 7 Series line, the 705i and 708i models answer the call for next generation multi-channel monitoring
in post rooms, broadcast facilities and trucks. Leveraging patented technologies developed for our fl agship M2 Master
Reference Monitor, 7 Series deliver detailed imaging, extended frequency response and remarkable output from compact
enclosures. Centrally amplifi ed and tuned, and easily installed, 705i and 708i are the heart of an elegant, scalable system
for broadcast and post facilities working in immersive audio formats.

KEY FEATURES

NEXT GENERATION
DRIVER TECHNOLOGY

Meeting the dynamic range and extended frequency response
requirements of today’s production formats, 7 Series incorporates JBL
next generation “Super Drivers.”

• The new 2409H High Frequency transducer incorporates an

innovative low-mass annular diaphragm that delivers smooth
response beyond 40 kHz, with extraordinary output and
very low distortion.

• Custom 5” and 8” low frequency drivers in the 705i and 708i

produce remarkable low frequency output, response and high output
with minimal power compression.

PATENT PENDING
IMAGE CONTROL WAVEGUIDE

First introduced in the JBL M2 Master Reference Monitor, the
Image Control Wave Guide technology allows

• A seamless crossover and uncolored response in the critical

dialog range.

• Neutral off-axis response for greater accuracy and room-to-

room consistency

• Detailed imaging and a coherent transition between screen

channels, surrounds and overhead speakers.

COMPACT, INSTALL
FRIENDLY ENCLOSURES

• Compact enclosures minimize interference

with sight lines to video monitor

• Front ported enclosures allow shelf and soffi t mounting

without degradation
in performance

• Rear and bottom mounting points and a range of mounting

hardware allow wall and ceiling mounting in either vertical and
horizontal orientation

AMPLIFICATION:

We removed all but the essential components from speaker. The system leverages
the superb performance and high density of eight channel Crown CT8150 and
DCi8300N amps to:

• Reduce speaker system size and weight.

• Eliminate the need to provide electric power at each speaker location.

• Reduce system complexity. Blue link networked audio in the DCi N amps

simplifies installation and reduces opportunity for system noise.

• LSR705i and LSR708i Dividing Network can be bypassed for

bi-amplified operation.
