Speaker system (satellite) JBL PD5212/43WRC

JBL PD5212/43WRC

PD5212/43 is a Precision Directivity™ 40° by 30° loudspeaker designed for applications requiring high output capability with excellent pattern control. PD5212/43 can be utilized alone in music or speech systems where frequency extension to 80 Hz is adequate or combined with subwoofers to create extended bandwidth full-range systems.

The M222-8A 300 mm (12 in) low frequency transducer features high sensitivity and low power compression for high continuous SPL capability. It is horn-loaded for additional sensitivity and improved pattern control. A newly designed low frequency phasing plug extends frequency response, providing smoother transition to the high frequency driver. The 2451H-1 large format high frequency compression driver utilizes a neodymium magnet and pure titanium diaphragm to deliver clear and intelligible high frequency projection, extended frequency response, and low distortion at even the highest drive levels.

Large PT Progressive Transition waveguides achieve an optimum balance of extremely well controlled coverage with low distortion, smooth frequency response, and natural sound character. The low and high frequency horns are rotatable for cabinet positioning in either horizontal or vertical orientation. High-slope crossovers minimize band overlap and a well-controlled off-axis response enhances arrayability.

The loudspeaker can be operated in either biamplified or in full passive mode. In either case, digital signal processing is required in order to achieve specified performance. Input connectors include both Speakon® and CE-compliant covered barrier strip for hookup versatility. The cabinet is fitted with twenty M10 threaded suspension points, supporting a wide variety of installation approaches.

PD5212/43 is part of JBL’s broad lineup of installed sound loudspeakers, complementing the larger PD700 mid-high cabinets with a more compact size and greater low frequency extension, and supplementing the smaller AE Series cabinets with higher SPL capability and larger horns for pattern control to a lower frequency.
