Description
The JBL CBT 70J-1 is a two-way passive line array column with sixteen 25 mm (1 in) soft dome tweeters and four 5 in LF drivers arranged coaxially. Its asymmetrical vertical coverage sends more sound toward the far end of the room for more even front-to-back levels. This listing is for the black version.
Vertical coverage switches between 45° for medium throw and 25° for long throw, and a voicing switch chooses flat music response or a speech presence lift. Dynamic SonicGuard protects the HF drivers, and the improved swivel and tilt wall bracket is included. The CBT 70JE-1 extension (sold separately) adds bass response and pattern control.
