The Wright Audio

Jewel

Small, Bronze-Mirrored Speaker for Near-Distance Listening on
a Shelf or Desktop

 

The Jewel is an exquisitely-finished speaker designed specifically only for close listening.  The recommended listening distance is 18 inches to 5 feet.

Larger speakers than the Jewel placed in these situations will actually sound worse when listened to up-close due to the lower midrange frequencies being reinforced by the nearby tabletop and shelf / wall boundaries, causing the speaker to sound "muddy".  The Jewel is designed with a natural lower-mid frequency rolloff which is compensated for by the nearby tabletop and wall boundaries.  It is for these reasons that it is not recommended for farther listening distances than recommended.

The result is a much more neutral frequency balance with excellent clarity at nearby distances.  The single driver provides phase-coherent sound with outstanding stereo imaging.

The Jewel is beautifully finished in bronze glass mirrors with a beveled mirror top.  A beveled, dark brown fabric grill complements the beveled mirror top. 

Because the Jewel's cabinet is expensively finished, it uses Wright Audio's replacement front baffle feature.

Should technology provide a more advanced speaker driver in the future, the front panel alone can be replaced to accommodate the requirements of the new driver so the entire speaker cabinet will never have to be replaced.  This guarantees your speaker will always sound its best and never become obsolete.

No other speaker designed for this application enhances a room's decor more than The Jewel while providing refreshingly neutral sound and a means of upgrading the sound quality in the future!
