The JBL Professional SLP12/T is a compact yet highly versatile full-range loudspeaker designed for both indoor and outdoor installations. Its sleek, low-profile enclosure is engineered to provide superior sound quality and broad, consistent coverage, making it perfect for venues such as high-end restaurants, hotels, resorts, retail spaces, and other commercial settings. The SLP12/T delivers the legendary JBL sound, with a powerful 75mm (3-inch) driver that provides clear, high-quality audio across a wide frequency range, from 74 Hz to 20 kHz (-10 dB). This makes the SLP12/T an ideal choice for applications requiring excellent speech intelligibility and music reproduction.

With its multi-tap transformer, the SLP12/T is suitable for use in both 70V and 100V systems, making it a flexible solution for various installations. The speaker features a switchable direct 8-ohm operation, offering the option to use the speaker in traditional low-impedance systems as well. The 15-watt multi-tap transformer enables users to adjust the power settings to fit the needs of their audio system, with taps for 1.9W, 3.8W, 7.5W, and 15W at 70V, and 3.8W, 7.5W, and 15W at 100V. The speaker is capable of handling 80W continuous program material and 40W continuous pink noise, making it well-suited to handle high-volume applications with excellent sound fidelity.

Installation is quick and easy with the included slide-in wall bracket, allowing the speaker to be mounted flush against the wall. The speaker's 15° down-tilted coverage ensures optimal sound projection, even when mounted in tight spaces. Additionally, the SLP12/T comes with a rain cover that protects the terminal compartment when the speaker is used in outdoor environments, making it ideal for sheltered outdoor applications. Whether used indoors or outdoors, this speaker is built to provide long-lasting, high-quality performance.

One of the key features of the SLP12/T is its compliance with ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) standards, with a depth of less than 4 inches, making it a perfect choice for installations in spaces where aesthetic appeal and functionality must meet accessibility requirements. The neutral, elegant design of the SLP12/T is available in black or white finishes, ensuring it complements any decor without drawing attention to itself.

The SLP12/T features a robust and durable construction, with a polycarbonate and ABS enclosure that is UL94V-0 flammability rated, providing excellent protection against environmental factors. The included zinc-plated, powder-coated SPCC grille is designed for added durability and protection, while the IP44-rated environmental protection ensures the speaker can withstand exposure to dust and water splashes in outdoor or high-moisture environments. This makes the SLP12/T a reliable and versatile speaker for commercial installations.

The speaker's performance is further enhanced by its low-noise, low-distortion gain staging design, ensuring clear, distortion-free audio even at high volumes. The speaker's sensitivity of 84 dB (80 Hz - 20 kHz) and a maximum SPL of 106 dB peak (100 dB continuous) ensure that it can deliver powerful sound in a wide variety of applications, from background music to live announcements. The speaker's wide 120° horizontal and vertical dispersion provides broad, even coverage, ensuring that every part of the room receives uniform sound quality.
