JBL Control 226C/T 6.5″ Coaxial Ceiling Loudspeaker with HF Compression Driver

JBL Control 226C/T in-ceiling loudspeaker

Control 226C/T is a premium professional in-ceiling loudspeaker designed for applications that demand superior audio quality, consistent coverage, and high output from a discreet ceiling-mounted solution. It is engineered to deliver outstanding speech intelligibility and detailed musical reproduction in environments where performance and aesthetics are equally important.

The loudspeaker features a coaxial design built around a Kevlar-reinforced 165 mm (6.5 inch) low-frequency woofer paired with a 25 mm compression driver. This configuration provides controlled directivity, improved efficiency, and smooth acoustic integration between frequency bands. The result is clear, articulate vocals and a natural tonal balance across a wide listening area.

Control 226C/T offers a constant 120-degree conical coverage pattern, ensuring even sound distribution and reducing variations in sound pressure levels throughout the space. An advanced high-slope crossover network supports consistent coverage while maintaining a smooth and natural midrange response. High power handling allows the speaker to operate reliably in demanding commercial environments without compromise.

The integrated formed-steel backcan supports plenum-rated installation and helps contain sound energy for improved acoustic performance. A clean, contemporary grille design allows the speaker to blend seamlessly into modern architectural spaces. The system supports both low-impedance operation and 70V/100V distributed audio systems through selectable transformer taps and a bypass option.

Control 226C/T is suitable for venues such as conference centers, hotels, houses of worship, retail spaces, educational facilities, and corporate environments where high-quality ceiling audio is required. Manufactured in China, it combines professional acoustic engineering, installation efficiency, and regulatory compliance in a refined in-ceiling loudspeaker solution.
