JBL CINEMA BASE is a completely integrated sound system that fits
conveniently on a shelf or table under flat panel televisions up to 60". The
sound experience is enhanced through integrating some of the latest surround
sound technologies via digital signal processing. Most TV manufacturers pay
little or no attention to the overall sound experience, concentrating most of
their efforts on picture quality. Yet, with growing demand for improvements in
television sound, the popularity of soundbases has been growing rapidly over
the past few years.
JBL CINEMA BASE has been designed to be positioned under your television
stand or on a shelf under your television for simple installation. It adds powerful
JBL sound to your television experience – including enhanced bass response –
in one compact unit. A simple plug-and-play solution, your television sound will
transform into a 2.2 channel loudspeaker configuration featuring added bass
from built-in subwoofers. JBL CINEMA BASE also features a built-in Bluetooth
®
connection which, with the evolution of the smartphone and tablet market,
allows for wireless streaming of your music from your mobile device to your
home sound system.
JBL CINEMA BASE is an all-in-one, easy-to-use, premium sound system that
delivers JBL-quality sound combined with the convenience of Bluetooth
®
,
HDMI ARC and built-in USB port for device charging.
