Nuova Smart: JBL by Harman custom sound system


Of the new Smart (given the various rumors, sketches and teaser circulating ) we know almost everything now; and it is only a matter of a few hours of waiting for the official "reveal " in which the final appearance and all the technical details will be shown.

Meanwhile, Harman , the world leader in audio and infotainment solutions, takes a first step forward by expanding its collaboration with Daimler to create the JBL sound system for the new Smart Fortwo and Forfour (whose debut is, as anticipated, expected for today).

Designers and engineers at JBL and smart have worked side by side to create a custom sound system that delivers optimal sound within the compact space available within the city car. For example, contrary to what happens in all the models that come out of the factory with integrated "enhanced" sound system, JBL and smart aware of the size of the car have made sure that the s ubwoofer could be removed , so as to increase the available space in case it is necessary to accommodate a greater load: a solution that may seem trivial but is clearly "smart". The premium quality of the sound offered by the JBL system it also makes it possible to offer the impression of being inside a much larger car, a factor of great importance for smart.


According to the " JBL FOR more bassboom " principle , the speakers have been positioned in both models to ensure that both drivers and passengers are "surrounded" by the sound . The new Smart Fortwo features a high-performance amplifier with six DSP channels and eight speakers, including the removable subwoofer . The Smart Forfour instead integrates an eight-channel DSP amplifier, to which are added two pairs of speakers, high frequency and low / midrange ; the surround speakers are finally positioned at the back.
