The JBL 4312SE monitor, an update to the brand’s iconic 3-way 12-inch compact studio monitor design, is now available through Karma-AV. Created as a limited edition by JBL to celebrate the brand’s 70th anniversary, the 4312SE reprises the driver configuration and retro aesthetics of the brand’s 4310/4311 studio and L100 ‘Century’ hi-fi monitors from the 70s, and 4312 from the 1980s.
This tiem out, the 4312SE’s 3-way configuration has been revamped with JBL’s latest transducers including a 12-inch (300mm) 1200FE-8 Aqua-Plas-coated Pure Pulp cone woofer, 5-inch (125mm) 105H-1 Polymer-coated Pure Pulp cone midrange, and 1-inch (25mm) 054ALMg-1 Aluminium/Magnesium Alloy tweeter with waveguide. Front panel mid and high frequency trim controls, a bass reflex enclosure with front-firing port, binding post speaker terminals, and a black wood grain finish with removable black cloth grille complete the system’s celebrated pro-audio character and specification.
The 4312SE Special Edition also features a 70th anniversary badge and comes with an anniversary certificate recording the speakers’ serial numbers and the signatures of the system engineer and factory assembly technician.
The 4312SE is designed and assembled by JBL in Northridge, California. It’s supplied in matched pairs to maintain detail, coherence and image quality, whether placed horizontally or vertically with the tweeters aligned inside or outside.
The JBL 4312SE studio monitor retails at £2500 a pair.
