Harman's JBL Professional AWC159 and AWC15LF Loudspeakers Offer Weatherproof SoundAt last week's InfoComm 2014, Harman's JBL Professional introduced the AWC159 and AWC15LF compact all-weather loudspeakers. Designed to deliver sound quality and high sound level capability for outdoor applications, their wide-range, smooth frequency response and high sensitivity ensure high-fidelity music reproduction and superb projection of clear, intelligible speech. The AWC159 is a compact, 15", two-way coaxial loudspeaker with compression-driver high frequency, wide 90- x 90-degree coverage and 500W power handling. The AWC15LF, with 500W power handling, is a 15" low-frequency loudspeaker designed for outdoor applications where additional low frequency is required. Both loudspeakers can be operated as direct low-impedance (8ohms) or on a 70V or 100V distributed line via built-in 300W low-saturation, multi-tap transformers. Components feature Kevlar reinforced low-frequency drivers and high-frequency compression drivers with a unique patented design and high temperature polymer diaphragm for high output levels with low distortion. Enclosures come in light gray or black and are paintable to match the requirements of the application. AWC components are highly weather-treated and a three-layer grille with vapor-barrier backing minimizes direct rain contact with the system transducers. The recessed terminal compartment is protected by a panel cover and a water-tight gland nut fitting. A U-bracket is included. The system's IP-56 outdoor rating and wide, smooth frequency response makes JBL's AWC loudspeakers ideal for projects such as racetracks, school stadiums, theme parks, fairgrounds, skating rinks, and swimming facilities, as well as for arenas, general public address and a variety of other indoor and outdoor applications.
