JBL 8128 - 25W 8-inch Passive Full-Range 70V/100V Ceiling Loudspeaker with 90-Degree Coverage in White Finish

The JBL Professional 8128 is a 25W, 8-inch passive full-range ceiling loudspeaker designed to deliver exceptional sound quality for commercial applications. With its clear, high-fidelity performance, this loudspeaker is ideal for spaces that require high-output audio with minimal amplifier power. The 8128 utilizes a high-sensitivity driver, ensuring maximum sound levels while maintaining power efficiency. Whether used in distributed audio systems or in installations where a backcan is not necessary, the 8128's open-back design simplifies installation and ensures a sleek, unobtrusive setup. Featuring a modern, sculpted grille, the speaker easily integrates into a variety of commercial environments, enhancing both the aesthetic and acoustic qualities of the space.

The JBL 8128 offers versatility with its 6W transformer, supporting 70V/100V taps that provide multiple wattage options (6W, 3W, 1.5W, and 0.75W at 70V only), making it adaptable to different installation requirements. With a frequency range of 50 Hz to 16 kHz, it covers a broad spectrum of sound, ensuring clear and precise audio reproduction for speech and music. The 90° conical coverage angle is perfect for filling mid-sized spaces with even sound distribution, making the 8128 an excellent choice for retail environments, meeting rooms, or public spaces. The speaker's 8-ohm impedance and 25W power capacity further enhance its suitability for use with a wide range of audio equipment. Thanks to its easy blind-mount installation using dog-ears, the 8128 is quick to install in ceilings, reducing setup time and ensuring minimal disruption to the environment.

With its contemporary design, the JBL 8128 offers both performance and elegance, making it an ideal choice for professional audio solutions that demand both high-quality sound and ease of installation. The compact and lightweight nature of the speaker, with a net weight of just 3.0 lbs, ensures that it remains unobtrusive while providing exceptional sound in both small and large installations. It is important to note that the JBL 8128 is not intended for use in return air plenums, making it suitable for a wide range of general commercial environments but not for specific air-handling applications.
