JBL LSR6312SP Powered Studio Subwoofer (Discontinued)

The JBL LSR6312SP goes beyond "accurate" all the way to "stunning" by incorporating features which reduce the effect of problems in the room. If control rooms had no walls, mixing would be a pleasure. Unfortunately, problems in the room dramatically color what you hear at the mix position. Walls and corners can affect response. And standing waves at the mix position can lead you to misjudge bass content. As a result, a speaker which measures flat in an anechoic chamber may "tell you a different story" in the room. We start with patented JBL transducer and network technologies that provide ultra-flat response and exceptional dynamic capability. Then we incorporate features which help to overcome the contributions of the room. So even if you work in a small home studio, with the JBL LSR6312SP, you’ll have clear sound at the mix position.

The JBL LSR6312SP has Linear Spatial Reference Technology which ensures that our speakers sound flat at the mix position. The exact geometry of the wave guide, the interaction of the woofer and tweeter, and the network are designed to provide an accurate listening window of +/- 30 degree horizontal, +/- 15 degree vertical. As a result, the reflected sound which reaches the mix position is smooth and accurate. With the advent of multi-channel production, trying to find a place for more speakers, and space limitations, may demand the positioning of the speaker be compromised. JBL’s powered models include boundary compensation switches that can be used to offset the increase in bass-response, which occurs when the speaker is placed near a wall, in a corner or on a work surface. Simply set the switch which corresponds to your condition and flat response is restored.
