The JBL name is behind more than half of the world’s big movie screens. Now you can get the big sound at home – in a small size you can live with. JBL Cinema 500 speaker systems surround you with crisp dialogue, rich, accurate music, and special effects from five center and satellite speakers. Plus you get all the deep, floor-rumbling bass you can handle.
Five voice-matched speakersComponents are designed for optimal performance, voice-matched to the center for consistent sound from speaker to speaker. The speakers produce the realistic, 360-degree soundstage that has resulted in JBL products being used in so many movie theaters.
Dual midrange center speakerThe center channel is probably the hardest-working speaker in a home theater system. The JBL Cinema 500 center employs dual midrange drivers for improved power handling and efficiency, delivering clear, distinct dialogue from even the most complex movie soundtracks.
150-watt powered subwooferA fast-moving, 8-inch (200mm) woofer and 150 watts of amplification produce clean, lifelike bass. Subwoofer phase, level and bass-boost controls let you tune for room acoustics and your preferences. Line and LFE subwoofer inputs ensure noise-free connections to virtually any A/V receiver.
Down-firing bass driverUnlike conventional, front-firing subwoofers, which interact with nearby walls and cause unwanted reflections that can muddy sound, the down-firing JBL Cinema 500 sub interacts principally with your floor, and its enclosure is ported for improved bass output and quality.
Dynamic JBL Weave designJBL Cinema 500 speakers are styled to complement any room decor with the new JBL Weave design, featuring sculpted, high-gloss black panels intersecting dimensional panels of textured gray fabric.
