The SP215-9 is equipped with a passive  
crossover that can be switched to bi-amplified  
use via an easily accessible internal tamper  
resistant selector. Bi-amplified mode, utilizing  
the DSC260 digital controller for crossover,  
signal alignment, and equalization functions,  
provides optimum system performance.  
The SP215-9 is part of the JBL Sound  
Power Series, a family of modular loudspeaker  
systems designed for fixed installation  
applications ranging from speech reinforcement  
to large scale music productions. All models  
are fitted with suspension points that accept  
M10 threads. The enclosures are finished with  
a hard wearing, weather resistant, textured  
finish DuraFlex. Premium 13 ply wood and  
an 18 gauge steel, foam-backed grille enable  
Sound Power systems to comply with

Recommended Amplifier is a power capability value that should be taken as a guide.  
JBL continually engages in research related to product improvement. New materials, production methods, and design  
refinements are introduced into existing products without notice as a routine expression of that philosophy. For this  
reason, any current JBL product may differ in some respect from its published description, but will always equal or  
exceed the original design specifications unless otherwise stated.
