Product Description

The AC16 is a compact 2-way passive loudspeaker built for installers and sound designers who need full-range coverage from a cabinet small enough to tuck out of sight. A 6.5" SFG woofer with a 2" edge-wound voice coil handles the low end down to 55 Hz, while a 1" exit compression driver on a 90° x 90° Progressive Transition waveguide carries vocals and detail out to 20 kHz with wide, even dispersion. Rated at 320W program into 16 ohms with 90 dB sensitivity, it reaches 110 dB max SPL, plenty for speech and music in theaters, houses of worship, auditoriums, and live clubs.

The enclosure is 12 mm and 15 mm exterior-grade multi-ply hardwood plywood, tested to Mil-Std 810 and rated IPx3, so it holds up to the knocks of a touring rig and the damp air of a covered outdoor venue. Five M8 points plus four rear M6 points accept an optional U-bracket, OmniMount-style brackets, or a stand mount, so you can hang it, wall-mount it, or put it on a pole without custom hardware. Dual Neutrik NL4 connectors and a screw terminal make it simple to wire as a single fill or link across a distributed system. At 15.8 lb and 15" tall, it fits under balconies, along side walls, or at the stage lip as front fill where a larger cabinet would block sightlines.
Audio Savings

Compact Design. Clear Sound. Flexible Installation.

Bring focused, detailed audio to your venue with the JBL AC16, an ultra-compact, passive 2-way loudspeaker from JBL’s AE Compact family. A 6.5-inch low-frequency driver and 1-inch exit compression driver deliver sound reinforcement in a space-saving black enclosure.
Audio Savings

Direct sound where your audience needs it.

The AC16 pairs a JBL 2414H compression driver with a 90° × 90° PT™ Waveguide, providing defined coverage for installed sound applications. Its 6.5-inch JBL 226J low-frequency driver complements crisp high-frequency detail, with a frequency response of 65 Hz to 18 kHz (±3 dB).
Audio Savings

Keep the installation discreet without overlooking output.

Measuring just 15 inches tall, the AC16 fits applications where space and sightlines matter. Its exterior-grade multi-ply hardwood plywood enclosure houses a passive system rated for 160 watts continuous, 320 watts program, and 640 watts peak under IEC ratings, with a maximum SPL of 110 dB at 1 meter.
Audio Savings

Flexible attachment options for a tailored installation.

Five M8 attachment points and four rear M6 points support multiple mounting approaches. The AC16 accommodates an optional U-bracket, compatible third-party OmniMount®-type brackets, and a stand-mount accessory, giving system designers flexibility in placement.

Features

    • Clear, Wide Coverage

      A 1" exit compression driver on a 90° x 90° Progressive Transition waveguide spreads vocals and detail evenly, so listeners seated off-axis hear the same mix.

    • Full Low End From a Small Cabinet

      The 6.5" SFG woofer with a 2" edge-wound voice coil reaches down to 55 Hz, giving speech and music real body from a cabinet only 15" tall.

    • Built for the Road and the Install

      Exterior-grade multi-ply hardwood plywood, Mil-Std 810 testing, and an IPx3 rating help the AC16 hold up to touring, frequent handling, and covered outdoor spaces.

    • Mount It Almost Anywhere

      Five M8 points and four rear M6 points accept an optional U-bracket, OmniMount-style brackets, or a stand mount for walls, ceilings, poles, and under-balcony fills.

    • Simple System Wiring

      Dual Neutrik NL4 connectors and a screw terminal let you run a single speaker or link several across a distributed system at 16 ohms.
