JBL DS280D Top CC – Intellivox Column Array Speaker System

The JBL DS280D is a professional active column loudspeaker array engineered for large-scale sound reinforcement and public address applications in demanding acoustic environments. This vertically-stacked configuration delivers coherent, intelligible coverage across extended distances with minimal phase interference, making it the preferred choice for venues, auditoriums, and spaces where speech clarity and even sound distribution are non-negotiable.

Acoustic Coverage & Performance

Built around sixteen custom-designed 4" drivers powered by an integrated eight-channel Class-D amplifier, this system achieves consistent sound projection up to 35 meters without requiring external amplification. The column design minimizes comb-filtering artifacts while maintaining tight directional control, critical for maintaining clarity in reverberant or large indoor spaces.

Connectivity & Control

Multiple input options include both Dante® digital audio inputs and analog connectivity, alongside IP-based remote control for system management and monitoring. Onboard DSP processing provides parametric EQ, volume control, and user presets, enabling acoustic tuning without external processing gear.
