Overview
An 8-inch woofer from JBL's AC series, built for floor-standing installation with Neutrik NL4 and screw-terminal wiring options aimed at commercial or custom install use rather than a plug-and-play home speaker.
The Neutrik NL4 connector is speakon-style wiring found in bars, churches, gyms and venues where speaker runs are permanent and professionally terminated, not the aux or RCA jacks found on typical living room speakers. Dimensions of 14 x 13 x 20 inches put it in a mid-size floor cabinet class.
- 8 inch woofer driver
- Neutrik NL4 and screw terminal wiring
- Floor-standing cabinet
- Black finish
Who it's for
Installers and commercial AV buyers who need a floor-standing woofer wired for a fixed system. Not a match for someone wanting a speaker that plugs straight into a home receiver.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Neutrik nl4 connector for pro installs
- Screw terminal option as alternative
- Floor standing cabinet
- No aux or RCA input for casual use
- Only one review on record
- Sizable 14 x 13 x 20 inch cabinet
Performance notes
The 8 inch driver handles low-mid frequencies as a woofer, and the cabinet is wired through Neutrik NL4 or screw terminals, both suited to a permanent, professionally run cable rather than a plug-in home connection.
