JUBI 12A / JUBI 15A

English

INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on your purchase of the Phonic Jubi 12A

or Jubi 15A active loudspeakers. The Jubi’s 345 Watt

(RMS) amplifier uses both Class D and AB technology to

produce up to a shattering 129 dB maximum SPL. This

provides sufficient power for a wide range of venues,

large and small. Jubi’s stylish polymer enclosure also

improves acoustical accuracy by minimizing distortion

and diffraction. Finally, reliability and durability was the

paramount factor throughout the Jubi’s development.

With 345 Watts of ground shaking power, a 2-channel on-

board mixer, custom engineered transducers, and great

versatility, the Jubi active loudspeakers simply excel.

Woofers and Tweeters Engineered Right

Unlike many speaker manufactures that use pre-

assembled OEM woofers and tweeters, Jubi transducers

are designed from scratch – tailor made for the Jubi’s

unique enclosure. Everything from the cone pulp, the

curvature of the tweeter’s ferrite membrane, the Kapton

voice coil gauge, to the characteristics of the magnetic

field, is uniquely Phonic, uniquely Jubi. The state-of-

the-art 12” or 15” woofers have a high BL force factor

and a long-throw extension which produce marvelously

deep and defined bass traditionally unattainable in small

enclosures. The 1.35” or 1.75” pure titanium compression

tweeter and 95 degree conical horn complete the Jubi’s

vivid, transparent sound signature.

Advanced Reliability

With experience and technology comes exceptional

reliability. But you can never be too careful! As of the

launch date, the Jubi loudspeakers have logged more

than 1000 hours of real world and lab tests, guaranteeing

a remarkable level of reliability. From heated ovens,

freezing subzero rooms, high humidity chambers, to

electrical voltage spikes, the Jubi has endured it all.

Advanced Electronics. Advanced Reliability

With over 35 years of experience, Phonic has few

equals when it comes to advanced electrical engineering

technology. With the Jubi 12A and Jubi 15A, this

cumulated expertise is on display. Core features include:

●

Time alignment and phase correction: In listening

tests, many notice that the Jubi 12A and Jubi 15A

seem more “real” or more “live” than other speakers.

This is because Phonic’s active electronics ensure

that sounds from the Jubi hit listeners’ ears at the

precise moments the original recording intended.

●

High Dampening Factor and Woofer Stabilization: The

Jubi 12A and Jubi 15A have high amplifier dampening

factors to ensure the woofers reach optimal excursion.

Additionally, Phonic engineers added circuitry to

manage the speaker’s electrical feedback, in effect

stabilizing woofer movement. The high amplifier

dampening factor and stabilization circuitry give the

Jubi its spectacular bass depth and clarity.

●

Transducer Protection: Active electronics oversee

tweeter and woofer excursion, preventing audio

artifacts, distortion, and speaker damage.

● 4th order, phase-accurate, Linkwitz-Riley crossover.

●

Thermal protection: Precautionary feature that cuts off

the Jubi in case of overheating.

in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators,

heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including

9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or

grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades
with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug
has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide
blade or the third prong is provided for your safety. If
the provided plug does not into your outlet, consult
an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or

pinched particularly at plug, convenience receptacles,
and the point where they exit from the apparatus.

11. Only use attachments/accessories

by the

manufacturer.

12. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or

table

by the manufacturer, or sold with

the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution
when moving the cart/apparatus
combination to avoid injury from tip-
over.

13. Unplug this apparatus during lighting

storms or when unused for long
periods of time.

14. Refer all servicing to

service personnel.

Servicing is required when the apparatus has been
damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or
plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects
have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has
been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate
normally, or has been dropped.
