High Power 2-Way All Weather Loudspeaker with 1 x 15" LF

The AW526 is a high power, lightweight, 2-way, full-range loudspeaker system comprised of the JBL Differential Drive dual voice coil and dual magnetic gap 2265H-1 380 mm (15 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 120° x 60° coverage. The waveguide is rotatable so the loudspeaker system can used in either the vertical or horizontal orientation. 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 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 AW526 is part of JBL’s AE Series, a versatile family of loudspeakers intended for a wide variety of applications.
