JBL 5732-M/HF Mid-High Section Only – Cinema ScreenArray
This is the upper mid-high frequency cabinet from JBL's professional 5732 ScreenArray cinema loudspeaker system—a precision three-way component built for high-output cinema, studio production, and post-production environments. The 5732-M/HF handles all midrange and high-frequency reproduction with the clarity and power density required in premium digital cinema installations. Note that this listing covers the mid-high section only; the low-frequency 5739 section (dual-15 cabinet) is sold separately and required to complete a functional 5732 system.
Acoustic Performance & Output
The section delivers 110 dB SPL sensitivity in the midrange (2169H drivers) and 115 dB in the high-frequency compression driver, providing substantial output capability without excessive amplifier demand. Dual 200 mm (8 in) Differential Drive neodymium midrange transducers with 76 mm dual-coil edgewound voice coils and a 2452H-SL 38 mm (1.5 in) compression driver with damped titanium diaphragm ensure precise directional control and consistent on-axis response across the stated coverage pattern.
Integration & Specifications
The 5732-M/HF integrates into the complete three-way system with crossover frequencies at 250 Hz and 1.3 kHz, maintaining tight phase coherence and seamless handoff between drivers. Input power handling is 700 W (MF) and 150 W (HF) on 4 ohm and 8 ohm nominal impedance respectively, with 90-degree horizontal coverage and 20-degree up / 30-degree down vertical coverage—typical for screen-array cinema application.
Key Features

- Nominal impedance: 4 ohms (MF) / 8 ohms (HF)
- Coverage pattern: 90° horizontal × 20° up / 30° down vertical
- System crossover frequencies: 250 Hz and 1.3 kHz
- Dimensions: 1054 × 762 × 450 mm (H × W × D)
- Compatible with JBL 5739 low-frequency section to form complete 5732 ScreenArray system
- Designed for cinema, studio production, and post-production environments
- Push terminal binding post inputs for secure amplifier connection
The 5732-M/HF brings JBL Professional's cinema-grade acoustics and build quality to demanding mid and high-frequency reproduction tasks, and pairs directly with the 5739 LF section to create a full-range tri-amplified reference system for critical listening and mixing applications.

At a Glance
The JBL 5732-M/HF is the mid-high section of a professional three-way cinema loudspeaker system, delivering 110 dB SPL midrange and 115 dB high-frequency output with dual 200 mm Differential Drive neodymium drivers and a damped-titanium compression driver for precise directional control. Built for cinema installations, studio production, and post-production mixing, it offers cinema-grade phase coherence and on-axis clarity across a 90° horizontal coverage pattern. This is a reference-grade component requiring the separate 5739 low-frequency cabinet and professional tri-amplified setup—ideal for rooms and facilities where full-range monitoring precision is non-negotiable.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is included with this purchase, and what else do I need?
This listing covers the mid-high section only, which handles all midrange and high-frequency reproduction. You must purchase the JBL 5739 low-frequency cabinet separately to form a complete functional three-way 5732 ScreenArray system. You will also need a professional tri-amplified setup with separate amplifier channels for the midrange (700 W) and high-frequency (150 W) sections.
What power amplification and settings do I need?
The 5732-M/HF requires tri-amplified operation: 700 W (AES 2-hour rating) for the midrange at 4 ohm impedance, and 150 W for the high-frequency section at 8 ohm impedance. Crossover frequencies are set at 250 Hz and 1.3 kHz, maintaining phase coherence and seamless driver integration across the system.
Is this suitable for live sound or portable applications?
No; the 5732-M/HF is engineered exclusively for fixed cinema, studio, and post-production installations. It is not designed for portable live sound or small venues and requires permanent mounting and professional tri-amplified amplification.
What are the coverage pattern and room placement specifications?
The cabinet provides 90-degree horizontal coverage with 20 degrees up and 30 degrees down vertical coverage, typical for screen-array cinema applications. Dimensions are 1054 mm H × 762 mm W × 450 mm D; mounting and placement should follow professional installation guidelines for your specific room acoustics.
How does this compare to other professional studio monitors?
The 5732-M/HF targets cinema and post-production environments with high output density (115 dB HF sensitivity), precise directional control, and tight phase coherence across crossovers. Similar reference monitors like the Meyer Sound USW-2P, Genelec 8260A, and Dynaudio LYD 8 serve comparable professional mastering and mixing roles but in different form factors and configurations.
Do I pay sales tax on this order?
