BASS SYSTEMS

One of the limiting factors of conventional, passive bass drivers is the very large box size necessary for realistic LF performance. An excellent alternative is the use of a powered bass or sub-woofer unit. Whilst these are common for home theatre, they are less common for music use. However a correctly designed unit, carefully matched to the main system, can release an extra dimension of realism to music performances.

MJ Acoustics is a leader in this field and we have collaborated with them to produce a sub-bass system tailored specifically for use with our JXR6 HD and JX92S systems.

We took as a starting point their MJ Pro50 unit - which has already gained excellent press reviews - and worked with them to arrive at a bass unit which matches closely the quality of our own systems.

These modified units can be obtained directly from us and included with your orders for JXR6 HD and JX92S drivers.
