Description
JBL AM5215/64-WH Two-way Full Range Loudspeaker (White)
The AM5215/64-WH is a professional full-range loudspeaker engineered for live sound reinforcement in medium-format venues, houses of worship, and installed applications. Its compact yet robust cabinet delivers articulate coverage across a wide frequency spectrum, with the flexibility to orient the horn vertically or horizontally depending on your stage setup or permanent installation requirements.
Audio Performance
Frequency response extends from 41 Hz to 18 kHz, providing full-spectrum coverage from deep bass through crisp highs. The dual-component driver design pairs a 380 mm (15 in) low frequency driver with differential drive technology alongside a 38 mm (1.5 in) exit/voice-coil compression driver, achieving 98 dB SPL sensitivity (1W @ 1m) for efficient operation in both passive and bi-amped configurations—essential for tour-ready systems and permanent installations that demand consistent output.
Design & Build
The cabinet is constructed from heavily braced multi-ply birch finished in JBL's DuraFlex coating for durability in demanding environments and on the road. A 14-gauge steel grille with internally lined acoustically transparent foam protects the drivers while maintaining sonic transparency, secured by fifteen M10 threaded attachment points for reliable, tool-free installation and confident stacking during load-in and load-out.
