    JBL AC566 Two-Way Full-Range Loudspeaker System with 1 x 15 LF

    The AC566 delivers the articulate highs and commanding lows that define a tight, responsive rig for gigging musicians. A solid 15-inch low-frequency driver provides the deep, resonant foundation you need to feel your tone in real-time, with full-range response that stays true from soundcheck through the final encore. Built to handle both intimate studio tracking and full-throttle live performances, this two-way system transforms your input into powerful, confident output with the clarity and punch that working players and experienced sound techs demand.

    Audio Performance

    The combination of a 384 mm (15 in) low-frequency driver and 25 mm (1 in) exit compression driver with 1.5 kHz crossover delivers a 60 Hz to 20 kHz frequency range and maximum output of 122 dB SPL (128 dB peak). The high-slope passive crossovers minimize band overlap and maintain well-controlled off-axis response, ensuring clarity whether the system is positioned for direct or distributed coverage in your venue setup.

    Build & Reliability

    The 15 mm multi-ply hardwood plywood enclosure finished in textured paint provides the durability required for road use and repeated setup cycles, while the powder-coated 1.5 mm perforated steel grille with acoustically transparent black foam backing protects components without compromising frequency response. Compact dimensions of 680 x 420 x 445 mm (26.7 x 16.5 x 17.5 in) and M10 threaded suspension points plus four threaded inserts enable flexible mounting configurations for fixed installations or portable rigs that need to move between venues.
