AW266

The JBL AW266 is a high power, 2-Way, all-weather loudspeaker, ideal for all kinds of environments from water parks and cruise ships to sports facilities and entertainment venues. 

From the Manufacturer

The AW266 is a high power, lightweight, 2-way, full-range loudspeaker system comprised of the JBL Differential Drive dual voice coil and dual magnetic gap 2262H 300 mm (12 in) low-frequency driver and 2432H high-frequency 38 mm (1.5 in) exit, 75 mm (3 in) voice-coil compression driver. The large format Progressive Transition wave-guide provides excellent 60° x 60° coverage. The loudspeaker system can be used in either the vertical or horizontal orientation.

The enclosure is constructed of multilayer glass composite and is heavily braced to maximize low frequency performance. The 14-gauge stainless steel grille, backed with open cell foam and stainless steel mesh, provides excellent protection in the harshest environments. The system is equipped with a 400 W 70/100V transformer. A heavy-duty weather treated U-type mounting bracket is included and allows for easy installation on flat surfaces or in 90° corners.

The AW266 is part of JBL’s AE Series, a versatile family of loudspeakers intended for a wide variety of applications.
