About the L830
The JBL L830 is a 3-way, 6-inch bookshelf speaker from JBL's Studio L Series, designed for both professional and home audio use. It features a 6-inch PolyPlas woofer for strong bass response, a 1-inch pure titanium-laminate dome tweeter for clear high frequencies, and a 0.75-inch Mylar ultra-high-frequency transducer. The speaker uses HeatScape motor technology for excellent power handling and proprietary Elliptical Oblate Spheroidal (EOS) Waveguide for wide sound dispersion, minimizing the need to find a 'sweet spot'. It is magnetically shielded, allowing placement near video equipment. The enclosure is bass-reflex with a rear FreeFlow port to extend bass response. The speaker has a nominal impedance of 8 ohms, sensitivity of 90 dB, and recommended amplifier power of 75 watts (maximum 150 watts continuous, 300 watts peak). Frequency response ranges from 48 Hz to 40 kHz, crossing over at 2.5 kHz and 20 kHz. Dimensions are approximately 385 x 222 x 320 mm (15.25 x 8.75 x 12.75 inches), and it weighs about 10 kg (22 lbs). The L830 delivers a full-bodied, natural midrange with lively highs and robust bass, suitable for music and home theater applications. It is bi-wireable with gold-plated 5-way binding posts and comes in finishes including black ash, beech, and cherry. The design extends audio performance beyond human hearing to reveal musical nuances. The speaker is well-built with a rigid cabinet and includes self-adhesive rubber feet to protect furniture surfaces. It is made in Mexico.
