JBL AW526-BK High Power 2-Way All-Weather Loudspeaker with 15"...
Product Overview
The JBL AW526-BK is the black-finish version of JBL's high-power 15-inch two-way all-weather loudspeaker for permanent outdoor sound reinforcement. It is specified where higher output and extended low-frequency response are needed across large exterior commercial venues, worship campuses, and public-address zones. The black enclosure suits installations where the loudspeaker should visually recede.
Product Description
The AW526-BK mounts its 15-inch woofer and compression-driver horn in a weather-resistant enclosure designed for long-term outdoor exposure. The larger low-frequency driver supports higher sound-pressure levels and fuller bandwidth than 12-inch all-weather models. It is a passive loudspeaker driven by an external commercial amplifier with optional system processing. Integral suspension points support overhead and wall-bracket deployment in fixed-install AV systems. Explore related models in the JBL Professional installed audio collection.
