description
Part of the JBL Synthesis Custom Loudspeakers range, the SCL-2 offers the highest level of acoustic performance available from a flush-mount loudspeaker. The SCL-2 is designed with a 2.5-way, triple 8-inch (200mm) driver configuration for low-frequency extension with high output capability and powerful dynamics. A D2415K dual voice coil, dual 1.5-inch (38mm) annular ring diaphragm Teonex® compression driver with advanced HDI geometry horn works in conjunction with three powerful cast-frame, 8-inch (200mm) Advanced Aluminum Matrix cone woofers with low distortion motor structures.
The loudspeaker’s 5.8-inch (147mm)-deep enclosure fits standard wall construction applications and features a Sonoglass™ precision-molded baffle assembly with integrated HDI waveguide/horn, and a zero-bezel, magnetically-attached grille. This enclosure can be oriented with the horn closer to the top or bottom, or on its side for center channel or reduced height applications. SCL-2 systems can be mixed and matched with other SCL speakers or any JBL Synthesis loudspeakers.
Designed to provide ultimate performance and the highest levels of dynamics from any in-wall loudspeaker, the SCL-2 can discretely integrate into any environment and décor. They can also be installed in a traditional application behind acoustic fabric or woven/perforated video screens without installing the grilles. They feature a discrete matte black baffle, HDI waveguide, and transducers, with a paintable white grille. The SCL-2 is the perfect solution for in-wall LCR or surround channel applications as part of a JBL Synthesis home theater.
