Wide-Coverage Speaker with
5-1/4" LF, Dual Tweeters and
Control HST
Professional Series
Key Features:
c HST Hemispherical Soundfield Technology™
(patent-pending):
• Provides extremely wide horizontal coverage
that approaches 180°, covering a greater area
with fewer speakers.
c • Reduces the primary wall reflection, resulting in
a flat frequency response and consistent sound
character at all listening positions.
c Components: 5-1/4" CMMD woofer and two
splayed ¾" fluid-cooled tweeters.
c 100 Watt power handling in direct 8Ω setting, plus
built-in 60 Watt 70V/100V multi-tap transformer.
c High fidelity sound character with broad
frequency response of 50 Hz – 20 kHz.
c Indoor/outdoor; black or white (-WH) color.
Applications:
The Control HST utilizes JBL’s patent-pending
Hemispherical Soundfield Technology™ to achieve
extremely wide coverage of the listening space along
with eliminating the primary wall reflection that
tends to cause inconsistent sound when speakers
are attached to a wall. The wide hemispherical
soundfield covers from wall to wall, allowing a single
speaker to provide high-fidelity full-range sound to
a large listening area. This can reduce the number of
speakers needed for covering a space, lowering the
overall cost for a sound system.
The patent-pending design includes a wall-facing
woofer, two horizontally splayed tweeters, a wall
bracket that spaces the speaker the required distance
from the wall, and a tapered cabinet that provides
proper loading and dispersion of the sound. With
most on-wall (surface-mount) speakers, the baffle
of the speaker is some distance from the wall. It
is the nature of low and low-mid frequency sound
waves to wrap around the speaker, where they
reflect back out from the wall, recombining with the
original sound. When this occurs, some frequencies
add coherently to the original sound and other
frequencies cancel, causing peaks and dips in the
resulting frequency response and inconsistencies
from location to location within the listening space.
By substantially reducing this occurrence, Control
HST is able to provide a flatter resulting frequency
response along with a more consistent sound
character throughout the room.
Control HST is ideal for a wide variety of
applications, including retail stores, restaurants,
corridors, educational facilities, hospitality,
music cafes, leisure venues, upscale lobbies, and
other background/foreground music and paging
applications. The IP-54 outdoor capability also makes
it suitable for applications where an outdoor capable
speaker is required.
The well-damped woofer incorporates a CMMD
ceramic metal matrix diaphragm for a very high
stiffness-to-weight ratio, high output, resistance to
humidity and long-term durability. The dual tweeters
feature aluminum diaphragms with a CMMD treat,
polyurethane surround, a neodymium magnet, and
fluid-cooling for high output, low distortion and
humidity resistance.
The system is capable of handling 100 Watts,
and is equipped with a 60W 70V/100V multitap transformer. Connection is made via a 4-pin
phoenix-type removable locking connector which
also includes loop-thru terminals for connecting in
parallel to another speaker.
A heavy-duty weather-capable zinc-rich, thick
powder coated U-bracket is included. The speaker
must be installed on its U-bracket for proper spacing
to the wall. Do not mount the speaker directly in the
corner of a room or onto a pole. It requires a wall
surface in order to work properly.
Outdoor capability is enhanced by the painted
aluminum grille that eliminates rusting, ABS with
10% Glass Fill cabinet, and weather-resistant drivers.
The speaker is sealed-type (non-ported).
