SONAR®

01 / PRESENCE

SOUND.
IN FULL
FORM.

Made to be heard. Impossible to ignore.

An imagined sound object, balanced between a warm metal shell and a dark acoustic face.

OBJECT STUDY / S—01

Next / Materials

02 / MATERIALS

A surface.
A character.

Grazing light reveals fine grain in the shell. A bright chamfer traces its edge; a recessed seam lets the dark front sit quietly inside the metal.

  • Burnished copperWARM. EXPRESSIVE.
  • Soft chalkQUIET. ESSENTIAL.
  • Deep carbonDARK. DELIBERATE.

BRUSHED SHELL / SOFT EDGE

Next / Diaphragm

03 / DIAPHRAGM

The shape
of movement.

Follow the cone from its small central dome to the rolled surround. Concentric ridges and the dished upper waveguide turn a flat face into a landscape of depth.

Next / Anatomy

04 / ANATOMY

Every layer.
One purpose.

The trim steps forward. Behind the diaphragm, an open basket, copper winding and layered magnet reveal the construction hidden by the assembled silhouette.

Read the construction
  1. 01

    Magnet & winding

    A layered magnetic assembly sits behind a fine copper voice coil. The separated view gives each its own space.

  2. 02

    The open basket

    Radial supports bridge two rings, holding the driver geometry within a visible mechanical frame.

  3. 03

    Diaphragm & trim

    A dark cone meets a soft rolled surround. Concentric machining and small perimeter notches catch the light.

05 / SIGNAL

Considered.
All around.

On the reverse, recessed connections sit beneath a field of ventilation slots. Knurled collars, inset screws and a small identification plate make the back as deliberate as the front.

REAR PANEL / CONNECTION STUDY

Next / Crossover

06 / CROSSOVER

A path for
every frequency.

The connection plate draws aside to reveal a small circuit: tightly wound copper, film capacitors and fine conductive paths. Even the parts usually hidden deserve a considered arrangement.

SERVICE VIEW / COIL + CAPACITOR + TRACE

Next / Foundation

07 / FOUNDATION

Held lightly.
Rooted firmly.

A fluted coupling meets a slender metal stem. Below, stepped machining and a soft isolation ring give the weighted foot a precise edge—and the cabinet a quiet point of contact.

COUPLING / STEM / ISOLATION

Next / Resonance

08 / RESONANCE

An impulse.
Made visible.

Thin wavefronts open outward from the driver. Their slow breathing gives a visible rhythm to an invisible idea: an object reaching beyond its own edges. No audio plays.

A VISUAL INTERPRETATION OF SOUND

Next / Space

09 / SPACE

The object.
The room.

Step back. The slender pedestal holds the cabinet clear of the ground while the wave field traces a larger volume around it. Negative space becomes part of the composition.

OBJECT + DISTANCE + ATMOSPHERE

Next / Coda

10 / CODA

LESS NOISE.
MORE FEELING.

The layers return to a single silhouette. Warm metal, dark circles, a light touch on the floor. A study in giving a familiar object a presence of its own.

AN ORIGINAL JBR COLLECTION CONCEPT

An imagined product. A real exploration of form.
