New materials, production methods, and designrefinements are introduced into existing products without notice as a routine expression of that philosophy. For thisreason, any current JBL product may differ in some respect from its published description but will always equal or exceedthe original design specifications unless otherwise mm (15 in)Low FrequencyTransducerKey Features: 600 W AES continuous pink noisepower capacity 100 mm (4 in) edgewoundaluminum ribbon voice coil 30 Hz - kHz response 97 dB sensitivity, 1 W, 1 m ( ft) SFG magnet structure with patented*Vented Gap CoolingTMtechnologyThe 2226H/ J low frequencytransducer represents the industry-leading results of JBL s engineeringresearch in high power transducerdesign.

Computer-aidedmagnet optimization and analysisallowed JBL engineers to optimizemagnet weight,flux density andreduce distortion. This patented*magnet structure offers much of theweight advantage of rare earthmagnet structures without theirhigher cost.*JBL Patent #5,042, Series75015_JBL_2226H_J 7/17/07 10:24 AM Page 1 2226H/ J 380 mm (15 in) Low Frequency TransducerVery high thermal power handling also requiresgreater mechanical integrity.

4 An innovative conedesign greatly improves cone strength and stiffness-to-weight ratio through the use of a glass fiber/papercomposite cone material. The surround topology andedge damping treatment allow greater linear excursionfor matched power and displacement levels. The voicecoil benefits from an innovative winding techniquewhich offers greater power handling and thermalstability. All design aspects of the surround, cone andvoice coil have been carefully optimized andcontrolled to provide smooth and extended highfrequency high power handling and robust constructionof the 2226H/ J make it a natural for tour sound andfixed sound reinforcement use, while the lowdistortion and smooth response make it an idealchoice for critical high level monitoring PARAMETERS6:fs: 40 HzRe: ohms (H) ohms (J)Qts: : : : 175 l ( ft3)Sd: m2(137 in2)Xmax: mm ( in)Vd: 689 cm3(41 in3)Le: mH (H) mH (J) o(Half space)2: (Max)1: 600 W continuous pink noiseMOUNTING INFORMATION:Overall Diameter: 388 mm (15 in)Bolt Circle Diameter: 370 mm (14 in)Baffle Cutout DiameterFront Mount: 355 mm (14 in)Rear Mount: 359 mm (14 in)Depth7: 137 mm (5 in)Volume Displaced by Driver: 6 l ( ft3)Net Weight: kg (19 lb)Shipping Weight.

Measured response of a typical produc-tion unit, including all peaks and dips, does not deviate more than 2 dBfrom the above curve. The dotted line represents measured 45 degreeoff-axis response. The dashed curve represents the response when thedriver is mounted in a 140 l (5 ft3) vented enclosure tuned to 40 Hz.
