PD764
Very High Output Mid-High
Loudspeaker System
Key Features:
60° by 40° Coverage Pattern –
symmetrical frontal dimensions
allow horizontal or vertical
orientation within an array
IFS™ Interference Free Summation
dual HF driver module eliminates
destructive interference and
increases output by 6 dB
Dual 8" horn loaded cone midfrequency drivers provide 6 dB
greater output than traditional
designs
Pattern control maintained to
below 400 Hz
Co-axial mid/high-frequency
module layout improves midfrequency arrayability and
minimizes size
Integrated rigging system simplifies
array design and construction
The PD764 Precision Directivity™
loudspeaker provides high-impact
sound reinforcement at throw distances that are beyond the reach of
single-driver designs. A single module
produces greater than 104 dB SPL
(continuous) at distances of 50 m
(165 ft). The PD764 may be used in
clusters with other PD family modules or singly as part of a distributed
system. PD100 series low-frequency
elements may be added to the array
to extend bandwidth and pattern
control to the lowest octaves.
The PD764 transducer complement
features JBL’s most advanced technology. The 2250J NDD™ Neodymium
Differential Drive®8" midrange transducer features a high energy neodymium magnet based motor, dual
voice coils and a large aluminum
heatsink structure. The 2430H compression driver utilizes the latest in
magnet and diaphragm technology to
pack the performance of a traditional
10.5 Kg (23 lb), 25 cm (10 in)
diameter compression driver into one
weighing 1 Kg (2.2 lb) and measuring
10.8 cm (4.25 in) in diameter.
For outdoor applications, several
levels of weather resistance are available. Please contact your sales representative or JBL for further information.

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.
