JBL Spyro

December 11, 2009

JBL Spyrois a powerful and compact 2.1-channel system with a pair of beautiful satellites and an innocent-looking subwoofer, JBL Spyro components may bring shrinking violets to mind. But they’re engineered to pound out rich, authoritative JBL® sound from nearly any multimedia source.

Easy-to-Use Touch Controls: One touch increases or decreases the volume; one touch mutes or unmutes the system. A single control lets you adjust subwoofer output. And JBL Spyro remembers your previous settings every time the system is powered on.

Features:

- Odyssey® transducers – Aluminum-domed transducers driven by powerful neodymium magnets deliver rich high- and mid-frequency response. They may be small, but they definitely kick.
- Atlas™ subwoofer – A large-excursion subwoofer driven by dual neodymium magnets pounds out clean, distortion-free bass.
- MAPS (Minimum Audio Parameter Shift) – Volume is good, but the distortion that plagues small speakers at high volume is bad. MAPS suppresses distortion, even at the highest output levels.
- COE (Computer-Optimized Equalization) – Proper equalization greatly improves stereo imaging. The JBL Spyro system is computer-optimized to provide a rich, complete soundstage.
- OCT (Optimized Compression Topology) – A proprietary compression technology ensures clean, accurate sound at high output levels.
