The JBL Intellivox DS280 is a digitally steerable, self-powered loudspeaker array designed to deliver exceptional speech intelligibility in even the most acoustically challenging spaces. With sixteen custom-designed 4" full-range drivers powered by an eight-channel Class-D amplifier, the DS280 ensures consistent sound pressure coverage up to 35 meters, with extended range achievable under favorable acoustic conditions.

Equipped with advanced 32-bit floating point DSP and Vertical Beam Shaping (DDS technology), the DS280 allows precise control of coverage to minimize reflections and enhance clarity. Its slim, unobtrusive design makes it suitable for architecturally sensitive environments, while integral surveillance features and compatibility with JBL’s WinControl software ensure reliable operation in voice alarm and life safety applications.

The DS280 includes powerful audio tools such as dual line inputs, 8-band parametric EQ, delay up to 20 seconds, automatic volume control via built-in ambient mic, and eight user-definable presets. Its low-frequency performance can be extended with a JBL subwoofer system, and optional ambient noise and temperature sensors further expand its flexibility.
