JBL AM7315/95 - 600W 15-inch Passive 3-Way Installation Loudspeaker with 90 x 50-Degree Coverage in Black Finish

The JBL Professional AM7315/95 is a high-performance 3-way passive loudspeaker designed to deliver superior sound quality for a wide range of fixed installation applications. This powerful loudspeaker system is built with JBL's renowned Differential Drive technology, featuring a 15-inch low-frequency driver (2265H), an 8-inch CMCD cone midrange compression driver, and a 1.5-inch exit, 3-inch voice-coil high-frequency compression driver (2437H). The combination of these advanced drivers ensures excellent low-frequency extension, clear midrange reproduction, and crisp high-frequency output, making the AM7315/95 perfect for large venues, arenas, and concert halls. The system's frequency range extends from 38 Hz to 20 kHz (-10 dB), providing full-range audio performance that meets the needs of professional sound reinforcement applications.

The speaker features a multi-band PT Progressive Transition waveguide that provides well-controlled 90° x 50° coverage, ensuring even sound dispersion throughout the listening area. The waveguide is rotatable, allowing for flexible cabinet positioning in either horizontal or vertical orientation, making the AM7315/95 adaptable to various room layouts and installation configurations. High-slope crossovers minimize band overlap, ensuring clean, defined frequency bands, while the well-controlled off-axis response enhances the speaker's ability to be used in arrays. The speaker also offers switchable bi-amp and tri-amp modes, allowing users to select the most appropriate configuration for their setup. With crossover frequencies set at 300 Hz and 2.2 kHz, the AM7315/95 provides precise separation between the low, mid, and high frequencies for optimal driver performance.

Designed for maximum durability and versatility, the AM7315/95 is housed in a trapezoidal enclosure constructed from 16 mm (5/8 inch) exterior-grade 11-ply Finnish birch plywood. The enclosure is coated with JBL's rugged DuraFlex finish, which provides added protection against wear and tear while maintaining a professional appearance. The speaker is fitted with 13 M10 threaded suspension points, allowing for flexible suspension and mounting options. Pre-engineered array bracketry is also available for easy integration into large-scale array systems. The AM7315/95 is rated IP-x3 for water resistance, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations in challenging environments.

With a maximum SPL of 141 dB in tri-amp mode (135 dB in bi-amp mode), the AM7315/95 is capable of delivering high output levels for demanding sound reinforcement applications. The system's sensitivity of 108 dB SPL (1W @ 1m) for the mid/high-frequency section in bi-amp mode ensures efficient performance, even at high volumes. The speaker's ability to handle high power - 1000 W (4000 W peak) for the low-frequency driver, 350 W (1400 W peak) for the midrange driver, and 100 W (400 W peak) for the high-frequency driver - ensures that it can meet the needs of large venues with ease. The AM7315/95 is also designed with longevity in mind, with long-term power handling ratings of 600 W (2400 W peak) for the low-frequency section, 200 W (800 W peak) for the midrange section, and 100 W (400 W peak) for the high-frequency section, ensuring reliable operation over extended periods.

The AM7315/95 is part of JBL's AE (Application Engineered) Series, a versatile family of loudspeakers that are engineered to deliver exceptional performance in a wide range of fixed installation environments. Whether used as a standalone speaker or as part of a larger system, the AM7315/95 delivers the high-quality sound, durability, and flexibility required for demanding professional audio installations.
