About the JBL PD6322/95 Dual 12-inch 3-Way Horn-Loaded Speaker with 90° x 50° Horn
The JBL PD6322/95 is a professional, high-output three-way horn-loaded loudspeaker system designed for powerful, wide-coverage sound reinforcement in the most demanding large-scale applications. This dual 12-inch, three-way configuration incorporates specialized transducers for optimal bandwidth division: dual 12-inch drivers handle low frequencies, a dedicated midrange compression driver covers the critical vocal range, and a high-frequency compression driver manages the upper registers. All are integrated via an advanced, multi-element horn structure that provides a broad 90° by 50° coverage pattern. This wide horizontal dispersion paired with controlled vertical directivity makes it an exceptionally versatile choice for covering large, wide audience areas in venues such as major concert halls, performing arts centers, large houses of worship, and touring festival stages where even, high-fidelity sound distribution is paramount.
The system's three-way, horn-loaded architecture delivers significant advantages in efficiency, power handling, and sonic clarity. By dedicating separate drivers to specific frequency ranges, intermodulation distortion is reduced, and each transducer operates within its optimal bandwidth, resulting in exceptional dynamic headroom and articulate reproduction of both complex music and speech. The controlled 90° x 50° horn ensures that acoustic energy is distributed evenly across the audience while managing vertical dispersion to reduce unwanted ceiling and floor reflections. As a passive system, the PD6322/95 requires external amplification and active crossover processing via high-quality digital signal processors (DSP). This allows system designers to apply precise crossover points, equalization, delay, and comprehensive limiting, tailoring the system's performance to the exact acoustics of the venue and ensuring seamless integration with subwoofers.
Constructed for professional installation and rigorous touring use, the enclosure is built from durable, void-free plywood with extensive internal bracing and a rugged, textured finish. The cabinet includes multiple integrated rigging points compatible with professional flying hardware, allowing it to be flown in arrays or clusters for optimal audience coverage. Its substantial size and weight reflect its high-performance capabilities, necessitating professional handling. The JBL PD6322/95 is engineered for audio consultants and system integrators who require a powerful, articulate loudspeaker with a broad, controlled dispersion to deliver pristine, impactful sound reinforcement for the most challenging large-scale applications.
