a revolutionary conceptto this market segment

4x 6” active full-range column speaker system

Unlike many of the options available today, the JK46A offers an outstanding performance at low frequency, enabling it for many applications where column

arrays might be desired but discarded, due to insufficient bass performance.

The JK46A provides an exquisite frequency response, topped with an amazing low end down to 50 Hz.

compact design with fully customized components

perfect for touring & for installations

As a part of the Joker series its compact design and high output make it extremely versatile. It is perfect for both rental companies and fixed installations. Theatres, churches, performing arts centres and other loca-tions will find Joker to be an ideal solution.

high resistant bi-component polyurea® coating

JK46A features an extremely high resistance Polyurea® coating to protect it from scratches, impact and abrasion during use. Polyurea® permanently bonds to wooden sur-faces, with a factory-like finish that follows every angle and curve while creating a watertight seal. No air gaps or drill holes to give water a place to hide.

quality finish and design in every detail

An ergonomic handle provides comfortable handling and portability. The blue LED behind the front aluminium plate illuminates while the power is on.

joker & youAcoustics and digital electronics-technological innovations incorporated into the JK46A make possible the extreme capabilities of this loudspeaker in an easy way. Just plug and get your best play.

Built in transducers in JK46A have been developed and customized to match the properties perfectly. The 1.75” high frequency driver is capable of reproducing incredible crystal clear sound even at full power.

asymmetrical dispersion

Thanks to its flexible coverage patterns, JK46A’s asymmetri-cal horn provides an amazing performance both in the wide, short throw zone (listeners closest to the stage) and narrow, long throw zone (back of the venue).

optimized steel grid pattern

Along with its optimum perforation coefficient, got through resistance versus performance mathematical calculations, the proprietary round grid pattern is designed to provide both protection to the speakers and acoustically transpar-ent sound. A heavy-duty 1.5 mm steel grille protects internal compo-nents from the hard road use.

acoustics prediction. better sound installations

Free EASE libraries allow you to visualize the performance of the system prior to installation. Powerful EASE software calculates 3D coverage maps, speech intelligibility, reverber-ation times and other acoustical parameters even before the room itself is built.

high precission digital signal processing

Thanks to its 24 bit – 48 kHz / 102 dB dynamic range AD/DA converters and a high speed DSP with 48–bit internal archi-tecture, the system can get the most of the transducers. Pre-cise crossover filters and parametric EQ, together with R.M.S. and clip limiters, ensure the best performance at all time.

third generation class d amplification

The unique Class D technology of the Joker amplifiers offers to JK46A benefits often not found in other digital amplifiers: extremely low harmonic and intermodulation distortion, high damping factor and high fidelity performance for a powerful and clear sound.

optimized presets for each sound application

Joker means polyvalence. JK46A even more. And for each application you can imagine, you will find a suitable factory preset. Nearfield, Speech... with a magical setup, the JK46A will give you its best! As easy as selecting the desired preset with your finger.

advanced graphic interface with sensitivetouch™ technology

Customize your JK46A: the graphic LCD and SensitiveTouch™ capacitive sensors at the rear panel help you configure both audio and user settings. Decide and configure in seconds if you want the front Led to light up, if you want to use the Ecomode or if the keypad should be locked after inactivity.
