JBL L42ms Music System

JBL L42ms - Iconic sound from JBL

The JBL L42ms Music System is created to fit into today's entertainment lifestyle by presenting the iconic sound of a pair of JBL speakers in a single cabinet system. With an elegant design and advanced technology, this system is perfect for both sound- and style-conscious consumers.

Design and Construction

Behind the iconic JBL Quadrex grille hides a pair of dual 4-inch (100 mm) woofers and dual 0.75-inch (20 mm) aluminum dome tweeters with waveguides positioned left and right to create a wide and even sound field . Designed with rounded edges, the slim cabinet is available in classic JBL real wood veneers in Black Walnut or Natural Walnut, adding an elegant finish to any room.

Connections and Connection

The L42ms comes with two sets of analogue stereo inputs (a pair of RCA style and one 3.5mm input) as well as an HDMI-ARC for connecting to a TV with corresponding connection for audio signal and control. In addition, the L42ms can play streamed content via a wireless network connection via Spotify Connect, Apple Airplay2™ and Google Chromecast or connect directly to a device via Bluetooth. The advanced DSP engine ensures that all sound is carefully contoured and fed to the speakers via a four-channel amplifier that delivers 75W RMS to each woofer and 25W RMS to each tweeter.

Performance and Control

The system's total 200W RMS amplifier power can be controlled via a touch panel on the cabinet's two panels, included Bluetooth remote, or from a variety of music or automation apps. With such extensive control, it's easy to customize the sound to individual preferences and needs, ensuring an optimal listening experience every time.

Design and Technology

Designed and developed at the Harman Center of Acoustics Excellence in Northridge, California, the L42ms leverages JBL's over 75 years of speaker and electronics design experience to deliver an outstanding sound experience and convenience that surpasses most traditional component hi-fi systems. With its incredible mix of style, size and performance, there is simply nothing like the L42ms Music System on the market.
