JBL DS115D Dante-Enabled Column Speaker with Integrated Class D Amplifier

The JBL DS115D is a compact, networked column speaker engineered for clear dialogue capture and balanced foreground music in studio monitoring and small-to-medium venue recording setups. Its narrow 134mm profile delivers consistent off-axis response across wide horizontal throws without consuming rack or wall space, making it ideal for control rooms, mobile recording rigs, and multipurpose spaces where audio must maintain accuracy across multiple listening positions.

Acoustical Performance & Coverage

This system maintains 130–18 kHz frequency response with 130° horizontal × adjustable vertical coverage, ensuring even tonal balance across the listening field. The 6 × 4" full-range transducers and 2 × 10mm coaxial tweeters deliver 85 dB continuous, 88 dB peak SPL with >100 dB dynamic range and a typical 15m throw, making it suited for monitoring sessions in medium-sized rooms and capturing live ensemble recordings with precision.

Connectivity & Signal Processing

Dual Dante 8p RJ-45 inputs (primary and secondary) enable low-latency network audio distribution with 3.7 ms latency and full 32-bit floating-point processing at 48 kHz, while transformer-balanced analog line-level inputs on 3-way Phoenix connectors provide direct integration with mixing consoles and audio interfaces. The integrated Class D amplifier delivers 8 × 40W RMS continuous (4Ω) and 200W peak power, requiring only a standard 3-pin IEC power connector for simplicity in studio setups.
