JBL launches modern AV receivers & stage 2 loudspeakers

The launch of JBL's Modern Audio AV Receivers and Stage 2 Loudspeakers marks the introduction of new high-performance home theatre solutions aimed at the next generation of music and movie enthusiasts.

The JBL MA AV Receivers and Stage 2 Loudspeakers are designed to integrate seamlessly into contemporary homes, offering a unified and cohesive system that prioritises simplicity, design, quality, and scalability, all at an accessible price point.

These products are constructed to simplify the home cinema experience by reducing complexities often associated with high-performance audio systems. They are presented as a turnkey solution, enabling consumers to easily install, connect, and upgrade their systems.

"The JBL MA AV Receivers and Stage 2 Loudspeakers were purposefully designed as a simple, turnkey system, both easy to understand and simple to install. Buying a single branded solution engineered to operate in unity removes the need to figure out which components to combine, giving users the peace of mind that comes from knowing that everything they need is provided. Setup and upgrades are equally simple so users can spend less time installing their system and more time enjoying it," JBL stated in the release.

The system's intuitive functionality and seamless integration are highlighted by features such as the EZ Set EQ mobile app, which allows users to calibrate the system to their space in mere minutes. Additionally, the Wi-Fi-enabled AV receivers integrate with SmartThings, facilitating control over other IoT devices with a single button press.

Music can be connected through various platforms including Apple AirPlay, Chromecast, Bluetooth, and Spotify, ensuring a smooth audio experience across different devices.

The JBL MA AV Receivers and Stage 2 Loudspeakers sport a contemporary design with slim and sleek aesthetics, offered in two colours, Latte and Espresso, to match modern interiors.

The products are scalable to cater to a variety of needs, from those starting with a basic two-channel system to individuals aiming for a comprehensive home theatre setup that supports 8K HDMI video, Dolby Atmos immersive sound, and DTS:X. Each model is optimised individually and as part of a system to maintain the desired sound quality without compromises.

With over 75 years in the industry, JBL is a renowned audio brand trusted by major movie theatres, recording studios, and luxury home theatres worldwide. The home theatre line-up reflects this heritage, featuring advanced acoustics developed at the JBL Center of Acoustics Excellence in Northridge, California.
