Description
JBL AM5215/64-WH Two-way Full Range Loudspeaker (White)
The AM5215/64-WH is a professional full-range loudspeaker engineered for accurate sound reproduction in recording studios, broadcast facilities, and monitoring applications. Its compact yet rigid cabinet delivers articulate coverage across a wide frequency spectrum, with the flexibility to orient the horn vertically or horizontally depending on your studio setup and monitoring placement.
Audio Performance
Frequency response extends from 41 Hz to 18 kHz, providing full-spectrum coverage from deep bass through crisp highs for mixing and mastering work. The dual-component driver design pairs a 380 mm (15 in) low frequency driver with differential drive technology alongside a 38 mm (1.5 in) exit/voice-coil compression driver, achieving 98 dB SPL sensitivity (1W @ 1m) for transparent monitoring at practical working levels in both passive and bi-amped configurations.
Design & Build
The cabinet is constructed from heavily braced multi-ply birch finished in JBL's DuraFlex coating for long-term reliability in demanding studio environments. A 14-gauge steel grille with internally lined acoustically transparent foam protects the drivers while maintaining sonic transparency, secured by fifteen M10 threaded attachment points for reliable, tool-free installation and repositioning.
