JBL Synthesis SCL-3

JBL Sound: A Heritage of Excellence

JBL loudspeakers have been the choice of music and movie professionals for more than 70 years; they are behind the screens of more than 50 percent of all movie theaters and hang in concert venues everywhere. Many of your favorite songs and movie soundtracks were mixed or mastered on JBL speakers. But you don’t have to be a recording industry professional to bring JBL sound home. Our home systems use technologies, materials and manufacturing techniques developed for professional speakers.

SCL-3 In-Wall/In-Ceiling Loudspeakers

Part of the JBL Synthesis Custom Loudspeakers range, the SCL-3 offers the highest level of acoustic performance available from a flush-mount loudspeaker. Utilizing JBL Professional’s patented D2 compression driver technology, the SCL-3 is capable of delivering very high dynamics with remarkably low-distortion for clarity and intelligibility at virtually any volume level. The 2409H compression driver used in the SCL-3 is mated to JBL’s patented High Definition Imaging (HDI™) waveguide for remarkably uniform and predictable coverage over a wide area – eliminating the need for the speakers to be angled or aimed when installed. Low frequencies are delivered by two powerful cast-frame, Advanced Aluminum Matrix cone woofers operating in conjunction with the included MDF enclosure for consistent performance and minimal sonic intrusion into adjacent spaces. Premium network components, Bi-Wire and Bi-Amp capability, flexible mounting applications, and a ZeroBezel, magnetically attached grille leave no details unattended. The SCL-3 is the perfect solution for in-wall LCR, surround, or overhead height channel applications as part of JBL Synthesis home theater system.
