JBL AW566-LS-BK High-Power, 2-Way Passive Outdoor Loudspeaker (Black)
Product Overview
The JBL AW566-LS-BK is the black-finish life-safety version of JBL's high-power 15-inch two-way all-weather loudspeaker with a rotatable high-frequency horn, intended for permanent outdoor mass-notification and voice-evacuation systems. Its 15-inch driver delivers the high-output, intelligible speech coverage required for emergency communication across large exterior sites. The black enclosure suits installations where the loudspeaker should visually recede.
Product Description
The AW566-LS-BK variant is designed for integration into life-safety infrastructure where reliable, high-output outdoor announcement coverage is mandatory. Its 15-inch woofer and rotatable horn sit in a weather-resistant enclosure built for long-term exterior exposure. As a passive loudspeaker, it is driven by an external commercial amplifier and specified alongside compliant system components. Suspension points support overhead and wall-bracket mounting in fixed installations. Explore related models in the JBL Professional installed audio collection.
