Description
The JBL Control 45C/T Pair delivers premium two-way coaxial ceiling loudspeaker performance for installations requiring wide bandwidth, consistent coverage, and minimal visual impact. Each 5.25-inch loudspeaker provides an extended 55 Hz to 20 kHz frequency range, making the pair suitable for background music, foreground audio, paging, and professional distributed sound applications.
JBL's Radiation Boundary Integrator (RBI) technology provides a consistent 120° broadband coverage pattern across the listening area. This controlled coverage helps distribute sound evenly throughout the space while allowing fewer loudspeakers to be used without sacrificing performance. The pair is well suited for commercial environments where reliable coverage and high-quality audio are important.
Each Control 45C/T combines a 130 mm, 5.25-inch polypropylene-coated paper cone woofer with a butyl rubber surround and a 20 mm, 0.75-inch soft-dome tweeter mounted on an 8.25-inch waveguide. The pair supports 8-ohm direct operation and 70V/100V distributed audio with selectable transformer taps up to 60W. Integrated blind-mount backcans, grilles, tile rails, and installation accessories provide a convenient professional ceiling solution.
