JBL AM5212/26-WH Two-way full range loudspeaker (white)

JBL AM5212/26-WH Two-way Full Range Loudspeaker

The AM5212/26-WH is a versatile two-way full-range speaker engineered for studio monitoring, small venue recording, and distributed audio production setups. Its compact footprint and rotatable waveguide adapt to control room layouts and mobile recording rigs, while the white DuraFlex finish integrates seamlessly into contemporary studio spaces. This system delivers consistent coverage and controlled directivity ideal for nearfield and mid-field mixing applications.

Acoustic Performance

The combination of a 12-inch differential drive low-frequency driver and 1.5-inch high-frequency compression driver produces balanced output across the audible spectrum with 96 dB-SPL sensitivity in passive mode and 122–129 dB-SPL continuous maximum output depending on operating mode. The 1.5 kHz crossover and PT Progressive Transition waveguide with passive networks ensure smooth frequency blending and natural off-axis response, critical for accurate monitoring across the mix suite.

Mixing & Production Flexibility

Dual operational modes—bi-amp and passive—allow integration into both amplified interface setups and powered mixing systems without modification. The rotatable waveguide accommodates vertical or horizontal mounting orientations, while the 120° x 60° coverage pattern and manageable 45 lb weight facilitate positioning in control rooms and enable quick repositioning for acoustic testing or multi-monitor mix configurations.
