JBL DS380D Bottom JBL DS380-DN, Amp at Bottom

JBL Intellivox DS380 Bottom-Amplifier Powered Column Speaker

The JBL Intellivox DS380 with bottom-mounted amplifier is a professional powered column loudspeaker engineered to deliver consistent, intelligible coverage across medium to large studio monitoring spaces and live recording environments. Its vertical column architecture provides balanced audio distribution across wide listening areas, while the integrated amplifier eliminates the need for external processing equipment—streamlining your signal chain and reducing rack clutter.

Recording & Mix Monitoring Performance

The speaker's 20 custom-designed 4-inch full-range drivers are powered by a robust 16-channel class-D amplifier, delivering controlled output across the frequency spectrum with predictable response ideal for critical listening and tracking sessions. The 130-degree horizontal coverage with adjustable vertical dispersion ensures even sound distribution without dead zones, essential for multi-engineer sessions and live recording setups where consistent monitoring across the room is critical.

Integrated DSP & Studio Workflow

An advanced 32-bit floating-point DSP processor provides real-time audio shaping through parametric EQ, automatic volume control, delay adjustment, and RMS/peak limiting—enabling precise room tuning and mix refinement without requiring external outboard gear or processing racks. The robust aluminum enclosure finished in white RAL 9010 with a black RAL 9011 speaker baffle withstands the rigors of active studio environments while maintaining a clean, professional aesthetic that complements modern control rooms.
