JBL Model 4310 control room monitor
Loudspeaker components
Frequencies up to 1500 Hz are
reproduced
by a
powerfu
t
long­
excursion 12" woofer having
a 3-inch
diameter
edgewound
copper
ribbon
voice coit
operating in a magnetic field
of
9,200
gauss
.
The magnet ic
assembly
weighs
six pounds;
free air
cone resonance is
a very low
27
Hz.
The
transition from
the low frequency loudspeaker to the
midrange transducer is made through
a crossover
frequency of
1500
Hz.
Above
thi
s
point,
the
midrange unit provides the clarity
and freedom from distortion required in professionat work, even at
very high loudness
levels.
The husky 5-inch transducer
weighs
2.85
Ibs
.
and
has
a
Va"
diameter edgewound copper ribbon voice coil
operating in a
magnetic field
of
16,500
gauss
.
The
4-inch diameter
edge-damped
cone
operates as
a true
piston
,
giving
smooth
response and wide dispersion
through its operating
range
.
Above 3
kHz
a third direct rad iator gradually
comes
into effect,
reaching full
output
above 7
kHz.
This
ultra-high frequency
trans­
ducer, with
an effective
diameter
of 1%
inches, gives
silky,
effort­
less
delineation of high-pitched transients and musical
overtone
s.
Enclosure
As
in
all J8L toudspeaker systems,
transducers,
electricat
net­
work and
acoustica
l
enclosure
are designed
and
tested to work
together
as a single
integrated system. The
4310 enclosure is
solidly
constructed of %-inch stock
throughout,
with
lock-mitered,
wood-welded joints to prevent unwanted
resonance.
All
loud­
speakers are
removable from
th
e
front
of
th
e enclosure
.
The
high frequency
transducers
are mounted
on a
raised auxiliary
baffle for widest possible dispersion, and to suppress cavity
resonances and diffraction effects
.
A ducted port provides added
acoustical loading in the very low frequency range to increase
efficiency and reduce distortion
