a revolutionary concept to this market segment 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.

family
As a part of Joker family you assure your best play in every situation. Because the Joker series is the result of the latest technology engineered, improved and completely customized by Amate Audio with 40 years of experience developing acoustic systems.
design & engineering 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 locations 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 surfaces, 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.
acoustic features compact design with fully customized components 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 asymmetrical 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 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 & you Acoustics 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.
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 transparent sound. A heavy-duty 1.5 mm steel grille protects internal components 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, reverberation 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 architecture, the system can get the most of the transducers. Precise crossover filters and parametric EQ, together with R.M.S. and clip limiters, ensure the best performance at all time.
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.
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.
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.
