THE LUMBER-CORE BAFFLE BOARD: REDUCES SPEAKER DISTORTION.
The baffle board in any speaker system is what transfers the acoustic energy (sound waves) to the air and to your ears.
In fact, it's the most critical part of cabinet construction. Like the sounding board in a grand piano, the wood used in a speaker can seriously affect the way music sounds.
To get the music sounding best, Kenwood laminates five layers of wood around a Shina lumber-core. The result is a very rigid baffle board that produces no vibration of its own to interfere with the music. That means less speaker distortion.
You'll hear the difference as music that sounds more accurate. With a solid, tight bass. A midrange without coloration. And high frequencies that are crisp and clear right up to the highest violin overtones.

That's because every part of every Kenwood LS-Series B speaker is designed from scratch from the composition of the rigid, lightweight speaker cones, to the unitized tweeter construction, to the exclusive lumber-core baffle board.
Since speaker systems are the most personal of any high fidelity component, you should really hear them for yourself. Your Kenwood dealer has a complete line of LS-Series B speakers to match your specific listening requirements.
After all, if you want your speaker's performance to be as good as your receiver's, choose the speaker with a reputation as good as your receiver's.
