About the JBL MTU-2 U-Bracket for AC2215/xx Two-Way Loudspeaker System
The JBL MTU-2 is a specialized U-bracket mounting accessory engineered to provide secure and versatile suspension for the JBL AC2215/xx series two-way loudspeaker systems. This robust bracket is designed as a primary rigging solution, allowing the loudspeaker cabinet to be safely flown from overhead structures such as truss, rafters, or dedicated rigging points, or mounted to vertical surfaces like walls. Its U-shaped design cradles the cabinet, distributing the speaker's weight evenly and providing a strong, stable mechanical connection that is essential for permanent installations in venues like houses of worship, theaters, auditoriums, and clubs where optimal speaker placement is critical for coverage and sightlines.
Constructed from high-strength steel with a durable, corrosion-resistant finish, the MTU-2 is built to handle the substantial weight and physical demands of the AC2215 cabinet. The bracket interfaces with the speaker's integrated rigging points, and its design includes multiple adjustment holes or slots, allowing for a range of mounting angles to precisely aim the loudspeaker's coverage pattern toward the audience area after installation. This adjustability is key for fine-tuning the acoustic performance of the system. The bracket typically includes all necessary high-grade hardware—bolts, washers, and locking nuts—for a secure and reliable installation that meets professional safety standards.
Installation requires careful planning and should be performed by qualified personnel to ensure all load ratings and structural integrity requirements are met. By providing a dedicated, manufacturer-approved mounting solution, the JBL MTU-2 U-Bracket extends the installation flexibility of the AC2215 loudspeaker, enabling system integrators to achieve the ideal acoustic positioning for high-output sound reinforcement while ensuring the utmost safety and reliability in permanent or semi-permanent installations.
