Phil Jones - Compact 2 - C2 Bass Cabinet Review

Phil Jones recently debuted their smallest and most portable lightweight cabinet yet, the C2. The Phil Jones Bass C2 redefines Bass Cabinet size with a vengeance and a mission. It is a 200 Watt shoebox size cabinet containing the smallest speaker ever produced by PJB. It houses 2 of the most advanced loudspeaker units in the world; “Chrome-Dome” technology, exclusively developed by PJB and designed from the ground up as a bass instrument transducer. Amazingly, each speaker is only 5 inches yet are engineered to handle the full spectrum and sometimes punishing dynamic range of a bass guitar. At 0.87 cubic feet of space, weight is not an issue so each driver has a large and powerful strontium ferrite magnet. This magnetic material is the most stable available, immersing the incredible electromagnetic force that can be generated by PJB high-temperature voice coils. The voice-coil is the heart of a loudspeaker that takes the full power from an amplifier and converts this into acoustic energy. The voice-coil in the C2 is a result of PJB’s dedication to loudspeaker research for almost 2 decades. The difference in PJB’s approach is precision electro-acoustic engineering to enable the musician to fully express themselves without hindrance from an inferior sound product. The C2 is dynamic, powerful, clear and has lightning fast transient ability. It follows your individual technique without latency, allowing you the freedom to express yourself as if your bass was an acoustic instrument. It can be used as a stand alone cabinet or in combination with other PJB 8 ohm cabinets or with combos including PJB C4, C8, C27, BG-400 Suitcase Compact, and others.
