The JBL K2 S9800 carries the Project K2 into the future. From the pure-beryllium diaphragms in the high-frequency and ultrahigh-frequency compression drivers, to the independent, bi-ampable/bi-wirable dividing networks, all enclosed in 1-inch-thick MDF and acoustically inert SonoGlass, the K2 S9800 is an exclusive audio product designed for the most discerning audiophile, with 94 dB sensitivity at 8 ohms.

Pete.......A pair of the K2 S9800's would sure look good in my studio.

You don't even have to be a JBL fan to understand these speakers are designed to please.

Pete.......That's right! The S9900 replaced the S9800. OK, a pair of K2 S9900's would look good in my studio.

Dan...Now just wait a minute here ( ), I had them in mind for my Living Room!

....and they are virtually identical in size and footprint as my L220's! Simply perfect!

Pete.......I need to find a dealer with the K2 S9900 speakers on the floor, and give them a serious audition. They are beautiful. I think they would blend perfectly with your room, too.

Good luck finding a dealer that has a pair. They are beyond beautiful, IMO. They are the JBL lover's ultimate dream speaker. The price tag is quite steep...

Yep, they would be perfect for my system in every way, I think. If I had a blank check to purchase new speakers for the system, I don't think
there would be any question as to what speaker I'd buy. I don't think I'd even need an audition....
