JBL AC895 8" 2-Way Full-Range Passive Loudspeaker System (Black)

Product Overview

The JBL AC895 is an 8-inch two-way full-range passive loudspeaker built for compact, fixed-installation commercial AV where speech intelligibility and even coverage matter in a small footprint. Part of JBL's AE (Application Engineered) Series, this commercial AV loudspeaker pairs a 209 mm (8 in) low-frequency driver with a 25 mm (1 in) exit compression driver on a rotatable 90° x 50° waveguide. The compact cabinet and rotatable horn make the AC895 a flexible installed-sound loudspeaker for conference rooms, training rooms, houses of worship, and multi-purpose rooms.

Product Description

The AC895 is a compact install loudspeaker engineered for permanent mounting where space and sightlines are limited. Its rotatable 90° x 50° waveguide delivers controlled asymmetric coverage that integrators can orient for landscape or portrait mounting to match room geometry. The 15 mm multi-ply enclosure carries a durable textured finish and is fitted with M10 threaded suspension points plus four rear threaded inserts compatible with JBL MultiMount and U-bracket hardware for flown or surface installation. Dual Neutrik NL4 connectors with parallel screw terminals simplify loop-through wiring and zone daisy-chaining. As a low-impedance passive loudspeaker, the AC895 is powered from a commercial amplifier and integrates into reinforcement, paging, and program-audio designs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What amplifier does the AC895 require?
The AC895 is a low-impedance passive loudspeaker with no onboard transformer, so it is powered from a commercial amplifier channel rated for its load. Match amplifier output to the speaker's power rating and the number of units per channel.

Is the AC895 a good fit for smaller rooms?
Yes. The compact 8-inch format and rotatable 90° x 50° waveguide make it well suited to conference rooms, training rooms, and other smaller commercial spaces that still need controlled coverage.

Can the AC895 be flown or suspended?
Yes. It provides M10 threaded suspension points and four rear threaded inserts that accept JBL MultiMount and U-bracket accessories. Use load-rated rigging hardware for the installation.
