Applications:
The JBL Professional Control 226C/T is a
premium in-ceiling professional
loudspeaker designed for applications
requiring superior quality sound in ceilingmount applications. Delivering exceptional
next-generation performance in a medium
format coaxial point source design, the
Control 226C/T incorporates breakthrough
performance features such as best-in-class
pattern control to provide a consistent
sound throughout the listening area.
Especially wide coverage allows fewer
speakers to cover the space, reducing both
the material and labor cost for the
installation.
The Control 226C/T features a 165 mm
(6.5 in) Kevlar-reinforced low frequency
driver coupled with a 25 mm (1 in) exit
titanium compression driver for
outstanding reliability and performance.
The system is complete with a pre-attached
back can and is designed for years of
maintenance free use.
Easy to install, the Control 226C/T
features JBL Professional’s proven C-Ring
with Tile Rail suspension system.
Installation can be accomplished from
beneath the ceiling structure for instances
when access above the ceiling tile is not
possible. Additionally, the removable
multi-pin locking connector, with secure
screw-down terminals, allows for prewiring the input wires for easy clip-on
convenience during installation.
A top quality, low saturation 68 Watt
multi-tap transformer comes pre-attached
on the Control 226C/T enabling the system
to be used on 70V or 100V distributed
speaker lines. The system can be used in
either 8 ohm (low impedance) or
transformer mode by selecting the desired
function via the baffle mounted impedance
switch.
The clean, contemporary look of the
Control 226C/T’s grille is designed to suit a
variety of settings, offering a simple,
elegant appearance that fits into a wide
variety of décors.

JBL continually engages in research related to product improvement. Some materials, production methods and design
refinements are introduced into existing products without notice as a routine expression of that philosophy. For this
reason, any current JBL product may differ in some respect from its published description, but will always equal or
exceed the original design specifications unless otherwise stated.
