#124 JBL Project K2 S9800: $30,000 per pair Discontinued eBay
Pros: A three-way horn tower with a 15” woofer and 435Be and 045Be beryllium compression drivers on SonoGlass horns, reaching 50kHz. Measurements show a preference score of 4.73 that reaches 6.43 with an ideal subwoofer, with 0.56 listening window deviation. Measured bass extension of 57.2Hz (-3dB).
Cons: The on-axis response is uneven (0.93 average deviation). JBL no longer makes it. Bass reaches 57.2Hz (-3dB) and about 34Hz (-10dB). That data is low quality. Discontinued.
How it compares: Just above it: MartinLogan Motion F10 - $13880 cheaper. Just below it: JBL LS80 - $13500 cheaper.
