The JBL Arena 6IC features a 1-inch silk dome tweeter with a waveguide to ensure smooth and even coverage across the listening position. A 6.5-inch Polycellulose woofer provides the low end energy to immerse you in room-filling sound. Installation is simple and quick with the XL-2 mounting mechanism and the zero-bezel magnetically attached grille allows the loudspeaker to discreetly blend into any decor.

Expertly designed, the series is matched to the award-winning JBL Arena component speakers for a complete home audio experience.

Sound Inspired by JBL’s legendary M2 Master Reference Monitor

High-definition imaging (HDI) waveguide technology takes its cues from the legendary JBL M2 Master Reference Monitor. Computer-optimized driver positioning and network integration result in ideal performance ad life-like soundstage imaging throughout the entire room, regardless of location. Proven acoustic superiority through rigorous testing and real-world evaluation.

In-Ceiling Installation

The JBL Arena 6IC in-ceiling loudspeaker offers a sturdy, reliable installation design that fits ceilings from 0.5" to 2" thick. Specialty locking clamps secure the in-ceiling speaker in place and are designed to minimize vibration. There needs to be at least 1" between the edge of the supplied mounting template and any rafters or other obstructions behind the ceiling, so the speaker's locking mechanism will have room to engage fully.
