JBL AC18/26 8" 2-Way Compact Speaker, 120 Degree X 60 Degree - Black
JBL's AC18/26 is a compact, full-range loudspeaker that's designed and built to deliver maximum bandwidth and SPL in a single visually unobtrusive package. The enclosure design enables installation in very close proximity to walls and ceilings, which makes it ideal for installation under columns, balconies, or for wall-mounting. The high frequency component is a 1" exit compression driver that's integrated into a 120° x 60° rotatable PT™ (Progressive Transition) waveguide that provides even coverage throughout the intended listening area. The AC18/26 utilizes an 8" Symmetrical Field Geometry (SFG™) LF Transducer with a copper-clad aluminum edge wound 2.5" voice coil and a copper-capped pole piece that improves performance by reducing voice coil inductance and distortion.
The multi-ply hardwood enclosure can be mounted in both vertical as well as horizontal orientation. The enclosure features integrated mounting points that can be used for an optional U-bracket and an OmniMount® type bracket (both sold separately). It's also equipped with attachment points located on the bottom of the unit to be used for a stand-mount accessory (sold separately). The enclosure comes in JBL's DuraFlex™ finish and with a powder-coated steel, foam-backed grille.
