JBL 4412A Studio Monitor
Continuing the saga of revolutionary sound reproduction with its 4400 Series, JBL Professional created the 4412A, an all-purpose three-way studio monitor. With a built-in 12-inch woofer and titanium dome tweeter, these reference speakers are designed for applications requiring maximum low frequency output from a semi-near-field monitor. The 4412A is a bookshelf-sized monitor that is tightly clustered with its Transducer Complement for accurate, close proximity listening.
JBL 4412A Studio MonitorConsidered a heavy-weight in its category, the 4412A comes with a power rating of 150 watts. This means the amp delivers optimum performance consistently at an average power output of 150 watts without any compression. Specially devised crossover takes care of bi-amping and ensures that dedicated amplification is received by both low frequency (woofer) and high frequency (tweeter) drivers. Typical of the 4400 Series, 4412A monitors present 8 ohms load to the amplifier.

The 4400 Series of studio monitors, by their ability to provide a crystal clear image of the sound source, have won the trust of recording studio engineers. The sonic device manages distortion and dispersion (polar response) with clinical precision and makes sure the mix is punchy and sound uncolored.

The Transducer Complement is seamlessly integrated for near-field listening, so that poor acoustic properties of the control room do not dampen the mix. The 12-inch woofer, 5-inch midrange cone, and 1-inch HF pure titanium dome tweeter combine well to minimize distortion levels, delivering smooth and clear high frequency information. The 1-inch titanium dome tweeter produces high frequencies. The active crossover network ensures smooth midrange transition between the woofer and tweeter. The 4412A is crafted in such a way that each driver assumes responsibility for reproducing the corresponding frequency in order to maintain audio integrity.

Both novice and professional engineers trust the 4412A to deliver authentic sound reproduction in cramped studios in spite of using different applications.

Key Features:
  • All-purpose three-way studio monitor with 12-inch woofer and 1-inch titanium dome tweeter
  • Bookshelf-sized monitor with tightly coupled transducers for semi-near-field listening in cramped studio control rooms
  • Gray matte laminate used as monitor enclosure with charcoal color grille are a visual treat
  • Balanced energy output on- and off-axis gives an incredibly fine transient response and imaging
  • Low frequency transducers with magnet structures to minimize harmonic distortion resulting in maximum definition of bass and low midrange information
  • Excellent imaging via tweeters oriented to create "Left" and "Right" models, achieving mirror-imaged pairs
  • Active crossover network achieved through computer aided design along with comprehensive listening sessions in multiple workspace
