According to Harman International’s web site, at the beginning of September JBL will release a new speaker/equipment isolation cone kit, the JSB-1.

If you want to add stability and improve sound quality, these new cones are made for you. Cone technology drains resonating energy from any component to its vertex (point). Cone spikes obtain a rigid coupling to the floor for isolating racks and stands.

The cones are placed under speakers to isolate home-theater components from vibration, and deliver improved bass definition and sound quality.

Our JBL JSB-1 features a wood block base module, four types of spikes, a cork pad, and will cost around 300€.

We tried calling JBL, but we didn’t get any further information about this product.

As some of you know, Japanese companies are on holiday for the annual Obon (One of the most important traditions for Japanese people). This week could be a poor Japanese high tech news week!

Thank you for your understanding.
