compact and lightweight 15" two way
touring-class floor monitor, with only a

watts (continuous) and delivers
accurate and precise low frequency
reproduction. The 2452H 102 mm (4 in)
voice-coil compression driver is
coupled to a 50°x 90° aluminum horn
to provide smooth and clear high
frequency reproduction, critical for high
performance monitoring.

Bi-amp or full-range passive
operation may be selected via a
recessed, high-current switch mounted
alongside the NL4 input connector in
one of the handle cups. An additional
NL4 connector is mounted in the other
handle cup for a convenient loop-thru
connection, minimizing cable runs on
stage.

The enclosure is constructed of top
quality Baltic birch plywood and is
coated in JBL’s rugged DuraFlex™
finish. It is a symmetrical 30° wedge
design, with four non-slip rubber feet
per side enabling convenient left and
right applications of adjacent monitors.
The transducers are protected by an
attractive 16 gauge CNC-machined steel
grille. It is internally lined with
acoustically transparent foam to provide
additional transducer protection.
