Description


JBL Professional 4732-M/HF ScreenArray Mid/High Horn Modules (Pair)+ BONUS Spare Center Channel MF Waveguide aperture lenses and HF horn w frame stand.


Up for sale is a matched pair of genuine JBL Professional 4732-M/HF ScreenArray mid/high horn assemblies pulled from Roxy Previewing Theatre, circa 2002.

Suit rather special individual who "knows" what they are looking at.

This specific pair is completely plug-and-play. They feature custom internal genuine JBL progressive passive crossover network architecture. The horn arrays run with a standard 2-channel amplifier, 1 watt is plenty for domestic use (not joking suit valve amplification)

Advanced Progressive Acoustic Array Architecture (Main Pair):

Instead of running all four 6.5-inch midrange cone drivers as a single identical block, the internal passive networks utilize a sophisticated multi-band progressive layout:

  1. 150Hz Protective Cutoff: An internal high-pass filter blocks low sub-bass frequencies, completely protecting the midrange cones from over-excursion and distortion.

  2. Tapered Mid-Array: The network actively splits the four 6.5-inch drivers into two distinct operational bands (a lower-mid pair and an upper-mid pair). This progressive design completely eliminates comb filtering (phase cancellation), minimizes midrange distortion, and ensures seamless tracking.

  3. The Smooth JBL 2425HS Upgrade: The system seamlessly hands off the upper frequencies to the legendary JBL 2425HS 1-inch pure titanium compression drivers, the 2425HS features a classic diamond-surround diaphragm and edgewound aluminium voice coil. It sounds significantly smoother, warmer, and less fatiguing—making it perfect for domestic home audio environments.

Slowly moving house and these all have to sell unfortunately however I've had my fun 8 years with them, loved them and kept then in 100% operational condition. There are few systems in the World that would best these all BS aside.

I'll keep adding and editing this advertisement, showing the travel covers and better photos, including the spares, wheeled dollies and others.

NOTE, only the pair of JBL 4732's are for sale with all parts mentioned, spare wave guide lenses/stand, socks and rain covers,,,,,,,,,,,,, Bass modules not included as depicted in some photos. these are a MF/HF System, not a full range speaker

Apologies for a complex advertisement, these are a complex speaker set, happy to edit ad, answer questions and support sale fully.

SHIPPING and PALLETISING IS AT ADDITIONAL COST however for a local Buyer I'd bend over backwards to help out.

Ready to travel..
