CHAPTER 1
P re f a c e
J B L wishes to thank you for selecting a
P roject K2 S9800 loudspeaker system.
It represents the sum total of our re-
search and developmental efforts in
sound reproduction over the last half
c e n t u r y. We have labored to create a
loudspeaker system with no acoustical
or electrical limitations whatsoever.
While the P roject K2 S9800 l o u d-
speaker is itself a new development,
the goal behind it goes right back to
the earliest days of the original James
B. Lansing Sound Company.
But it is your listening pleasure that
ultimately determines how successful
we are in this endeavor. It is solely in
the interest of ensuring a perfect listen-
ing experience that we ask you to
faithfully follow the set-up and opera-
tion procedures outlined in the P ro j e c t
K2 S9800 Owners Refere n c e.
This manual exists for several purpos-
es. As your owner's manual, it contains
all necessary background information
and detailed instructions for setting up
your P roject K2 S9800 l o u d s p e a k e r
system, including unpacking the loud-
s p e a k e r, selecting the correct location,
speaker wire, wiring scheme and
amplification, and connecting it up to
its associated electronics. This infor-
mation will be found in Chapters 4
through 8. In addition, we have includ-
ed a detailed description of your
P roject K2 S9800 l o u d s p e a k e r s
(Chapter 3) so that you may become
thoroughly acquainted with its unique
design and technological features.
Although physically and materially
imposing, the set-up procedure of the
P roject K2 loudspeaker system is rela-
tively simple. We strongly urge you to
read this manual thoroughly before you
begin, and consult it frequently
throughout the process. Considerations
must be made in placing the speakers;
their stature makes it imperative that
you become familiar with the entire
set-up process in advance.
Also, we believe that the historical and
technical information included will add
immeasurably to your total enjoyment
of the loudspeaker system. As a loud-
s p e a k e r, P roject K2 S9800 is unparal-
leled in the field of sound reproduction.
The story and principles behind it are
an interesting, informative and fitting
precursor to a lifetime of musical
e n j o y m e n t .

CHAPTER 2
Legacy-the historical development of
the JBL P r o j e c t l o u d s p e a ke r s
Of those few who seek perfection in
sound reproduction, only a handful have
actually achieved it. The price is always
high. It is a rare occurrence indeed
when an individual or group is able to
triumph over the constraints of econom-
ic and technological reality just once.
At JBL, this has happened six times. In
each case, its engineers were told to
build the speaker system they had
always wanted to build. W h a t e v e r
resources were required would be made
available. Thus began an ongoing inves-
tigation into new frontiers of sound
reproduction, beginning mid-century in
1950 and continuing to the present day.
The products that have resulted from
this venture are now known as the JBL
P ro j e c t loudspeakers. Each represents
the absolute peak of every technologi-
cal, material and engineering innovation
available at that time, combined into a
single system. They are H a r t s e l d ,
Pa r agon, Everest, K2 S9500/7500 and
K2 S5500. K2 S9800The newest is .
Although differing in performance
details and physical attributes, each of
the P ro j e c t loudspeakers has shared a
common objective: to elevate sound
reproduction to levels defined only by
the limitations of existing materials and
t e c h n o l o g y. And despite a spread of
nearly fifty years, all P ro j e c t l o u d s p e a k -
ers have shared many common features-
testimony to their foundation on the
technology and manufacturing tech-
niques upon which JBLwas built.
D e f ining the P r o j e c t C o n c e p t
The H a r t s e l d began a tradition at JBL
that continues today. First, engineer a
product as close to perfection as pos-
sible. When it reaches that level, that is
the time to make it better.
In 1954, the H a r t s e l d was significant
not in that it represented n e w t e c h n o l -
o g y, but rather a new level of the all-
technical manufacturing approach pio-
neered by James B. Lansing some
twenty years before it. Like its P ro j e c t
series successors, it was a high eff i c i e n -
cy system incorporating compression
driver technology, one combining the
qualities of high output, low distortion,
exceptional stereo imaging and fatigue-
free listening. Most important, it was
the first consumer-available listening
system to do so.
In this respect, P roject K2 S9800 is at
once the most advanced and sophisticat-
ed loudspeaker in the world today a n d a
speaker whose technology is deeply
rooted in over 50 years of tradition.
JBL's president in 1954, Wi l l i a m
Thomas, described the Hartsfield as
"...the speaker system we have always
wanted to build ... the finest compo-
nents ever made available to serious lis-
t e n e r s . "

Project K2 S9800
He went on to describe the process
behind his creation: “Most people who
own and appreciate fine sound repro-
duction equipment look forward to the
day when they will be able to assemble
a system without limitation in just
exactly the way they think it should be
done. Periodically a manufacturer gets
this same feeling ... The science of
acoustics has provided us with basic
principles-available to all for achieving
precision reproduction. It is only a mat-
ter of incorporating these methods into a
system design, and then taking every bit
of trouble necessary to build a system
precisely to the design.”
"It isn't easy, but that's the way it is
d o n e . "
The R a n ge r- Pa r ag o n , JBL's second
P ro j e c t system, was the first serious
attempt at a reflecting speaker system,
and broke ground in the new concept of
stereo imaging. Essentially two inde-
pendent full-range speaker systems
installed in a handsome curved cabinet
nearly 9 feet long, the Pa r ag o n ' s e n c l o -
sure was treated as an extension of its
transducers. In essence, the system had
its own "built-in acoustics." In many
respects the Pa r ag o n anticipated loud-
speaker developments that would occur
years-and even decades-later.
For nearly 30 years, the Pa r ag o n r e -
mained the most acoustically viable
sound system for the home. To d a y,
along with the H a r t s e l d, it is still the
most sought-after speaker in the world.
In 1986, JBL introduced a new P ro j e c t
system that retained the Pa rag o n ' s o v e r-
all sense of musicality while upgrading
its character by incorporating three
decades' worth of continuous develop-
ment in every facet of its design. Its
name reflected the pinnacle of achieve-
ment it represented: P roject Evere s t .
For the first time, the rest of the sound
reproduction chain-and not the loud-
speaker or its transducers-would impose
limits on overall system performance.
Like the Pa rag o n and H a r t s e l d ,
P roject Evere s t was built around com-
pression driver technology and
addressed a more refined stereo image
than was previously considered techni-
cally feasible.
Since P roject Evere s t was introduced,
sound recording and playback technolo-
gy has undergone a revolution of its
own. With the advent of CD, extremely
demanding recorded signals had
become the rule rather than the excep-
tion-the average source material used by
the typical audio enthusiast had become
superior to the best demonstration mate-
rial of even just a few years ago. In
overall dynamics and transient response,
transducers are once again a potential
weak link in the high-end audio repro-
duction chain.
It was in this environment that JBL s e t
out to create its fourth and fifth P ro j e c t
loudspeakers, K2 S9500 and K2 S5500.
As with H a r t s e l d, the puritan simplici-
ty of a two-way system was considered
the most promising design track.
Advances in transducer design and low
frequency alignment would make the
construction of a two-way system of
