JBL DSX430D Bottom JBL DSX430-DN, Amp at Bottom

JBL Intellivox DSX430D Bottom with Amplifier

The DSX430D is a compact line array element engineered for distributed playback and reinforcement in mid-sized rooms and installations. Its horizontal format with integrated Class D amplification delivers consistent coverage across large throw distances without requiring external amps or complex rigging. This unit excels in applications where reliability, straightforward system setup, and professional audio quality are essential to tracking sessions and production workflows.

Coverage & Output Performance

The DSX430D produces a 130° horizontal × adjustable vertical coverage pattern optimized for even sound distribution across listening areas during mix referencing and playback. With a maximum continuous SPL of 92 dB (95 dB peak) at 30 meters, and a typical throw distance of 50 meters, this element handles moderate to large control rooms and tracking spaces while maintaining clean, articulate output across its 130 Hz – 10 kHz frequency response.

Amplification & Connectivity

The onboard Class D amplifier provides 16 × 40W RMS continuous power (470W peak), eliminating external amplification needs and streamlining your studio signal chain. Dual DANTE digital inputs and transformer-balanced analog connectivity via 3-way Phoenix connector integrate seamlessly into networked studio systems or conventional console setups with ultra-low latency of just 3.7ms.
