Specifications:
1
Continuous Pink Noise rating is IEC-shaped pink noise with a 6 dB crest factor. Continuous
program power is defined as 3 dB above the Continuous Pink Noise Rating. In 8 ohm mode.
2
Half-space, 2π loading (in-ground recessed), 360° horizontal, vertical averaged 10 to 50
degrees from ground.
3
8 ohm mode, calculated from sensitivity and power handling, exclusive of power compression.
JBL continually engages in research related to product improvement. Some materials,
production methods and design refinements are introduced into existing products without notice
as a routine expression of that philosophy. For this reason, any current JBL product may differ in
some respect from its published description, but will always equal or exceed the original design
specifications unless otherwise stated.
