JBL Control 24C Background / Foreground Ceiling Loudspeakers

JBL Control 24C in-ceiling loudspeaker

Control 24C is a compact in-ceiling loudspeaker engineered to provide high-quality sound for background music and music-plus-paging applications. Its efficient design delivers balanced audio performance while maintaining a discreet ceiling-mounted appearance suitable for a wide range of commercial spaces.

The loudspeaker features a coaxial configuration with a 100 mm (4 inch) low-frequency woofer utilizing a butyl rubber surround, paired with a 19 mm titanium-coated diffraction-loaded tweeter. This combination ensures clear high-frequency detail, controlled dispersion, and low distortion even at higher sound levels. The result is consistent and intelligible audio for both music playback and voice announcements.

Control 24C is optimized for wide coverage, allowing fewer loudspeakers to be used while still achieving uniform sound distribution. This design approach helps reduce overall system cost without compromising audio quality or coverage performance. The speaker’s acoustic output and sensitivity are well suited for typical background and foreground sound levels in commercial environments.

To enhance operational reliability, the loudspeaker incorporates SonicGuard™ overload protection, enabling higher operating levels while safeguarding internal components. The formed steel backcan and fire-rated baffle support plenum-rated installation in air-handling spaces, ensuring compliance with applicable safety requirements.

Control 24C is packaged with a grille, backcan, tile rails, and mounting accessories, simplifying installation and improving efficiency for installers. It is suitable for use in retail stores, restaurants, offices, hotels, educational facilities, and similar venues requiring dependable ceiling-mounted audio. Manufactured in China, Control 24C offers a practical combination of performance, coverage, and installation convenience.
