JVC Theatre Series SP-5500 Tower Speakers, Pair – 8-inch Woofers

A pair of JVC Theatre Series SP-5500 two-way tower speakers in black woodgrain, with front-ported bass-reflex cabinets, tested on our bench and in very good condition.

What it is

The SP-5500 is a full-size, two-way tower from JVC’s Theatre Series, built to anchor a stereo system or the front left and right of a home theatre. Each cabinet carries a three-quarter-inch ferrofluid-cooled dome tweeter over an eight-inch poly-cone woofer, crossing over at 2,000 Hz, with a front-firing bass port below that keeps the bass full and lets the speakers sit closer to a wall than a rear-ported design. JVC rates them from 40 Hz to 20 kHz, for amplifiers from 5 to 100 watts, and compatible with 4 to 8 ohm systems, so any home theatre receiver or stereo amplifier will drive them.

Each speaker also has a built-in protection circuit. If an amplifier is driven into clipping, an automatic circuit breaker cuts the high frequencies to protect the tweeter, a useful safeguard in a home theatre where volume can swing.

Around the back, spring-clip terminals in a recessed cup take bare wire or pin connectors. Our own Radique Audio pin connectors are the natural match for a neat, secure fit, and our Custom Speaker Cable Builder will make you a pair to the exact length, terminated and ready to connect.
