James Loudspeaker SPL3-LR - Stereo Bar

Product Overview

The James Loudspeaker SPL3-LR is a two-channel on-wall stereo bar engineered for commercial AV rooms and home theaters that need left and right channels in a single low-profile enclosure above or below a display. As a stereo soundbar, it delivers a wide front image for music, presentation audio, and cinematic content. This passive stereo bar pairs with matching center and three-channel siblings to scale a complete front stage. It suits integrators who want a clean, display-matched alternative to separate left and right speakers.

Product Description

The SPL3-LR places independent left and right channels in one slim on-wall bar that mounts directly above or below a flat-panel television or screen. It operates passively, with each channel driven by its own external amplifier channel, giving integrators control over power and processing. The stereo format suits rooms where a discrete two-channel front image is preferred over a full three-channel array, such as multipurpose media spaces and listening rooms. Its thin enclosure keeps the hardware visually subordinate to the display while maintaining stereo separation across the listening area.

Within the SPL3 series, the SPL3-LR sits between the single-channel SPL3-C center bar and the three-channel SPL3-LCR, giving integrators a clear path to scale from stereo to a full L/C/R front stage. Additional models are available in the James Loudspeaker collection through Creation Networks.
