12 Inch 2-Way
Speaker System
Professional Series
JBL continually engages in research related to product improvement. Some 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.

Applications:
For entertainment businesses, e.g. high-end KTV chain
stores, clubs, etc.
XS12 is a vented 12-inch full-range speaker system
designed by JBL Entertainment to satisfy the demand for
powerful bass punch and pristine vocal at high-class KTV
chain stores or clubs.
For the high notes, XS12 uses a patent JBL 2414H-C 1”
polymer diaphragm compression driver not only for its
crystal clear high and mid vocal but also its contribution
to reliability of the entire system. For the bass part, JBL
engineered a new high-efficiency transducer capable of
handling high power and reproducing more low frequency
energy than its peers. A precision-engineered passive
network critically eliminates band overlap and does a great
job bringing each sound detail into full play. Balanced
coverage across the KTV room is guaranteed by a 100° ×
70° (H × V) horn, whenever the speaker is positioned in
landscape or portrait mode.
XS12 houses all the acoustical components in a rugged
enclosure made from premium quality MDF. Layout of
components and transducers is an outcome of rounds of
meticulous computing and simulation in order to achieve
better frequency response in a more compact cabinet.
Multiple high-strength suspension hardware and one
speaker pole receptacle are provided to meet different
installation requirements. The edgy front grille is machined
from 18-gauge steel, for protection of internal components
from foreign objects and drink splash. Just like else JBL
entertainment product lines, XS12 also comes with a JBL
Entertainment signature – the illuminating logo powered
by JBL PSL (Passive Sound Lighting) technology, which
will be constantly on when the singer keeps singing to his/
her mic.
