Jbl Professional Control 26CT In-ceiling Speaker

Product Description

The JBL PROFESSIONAL CONTROL 26CT is a 6.5-inch 2-way coaxial in-ceiling speaker with a built-in transformer, designed for distributed audio installations in commercial and institutional environments. The integrated transformer allows connection to 70V or 100V constant-voltage distribution systems, making it a practical choice for multi-zone audio deployments. Installation is handled by licensed audio-electrical contractors or experienced AV integrators. The coaxial driver configuration delivers full-range coverage from a single ceiling cut-out, reducing installation time in tiled or drywall ceiling applications.

The CONTROL 26CT is suited for in-ceiling installation in commercial spaces such as retail environments, hospitality venues, offices, schools, and houses of worship where background music or paging audio is distributed over a constant-voltage system. The 6.5-inch woofer paired with a coaxial tweeter provides broad coverage from a compact ceiling footprint. This unit is sold individually, one speaker per unit.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified AV integrator or licensed electrician familiar with constant-voltage distributed audio systems. Power down the amplifier and disconnect the distribution line before wiring the transformer taps. Follow local electrical codes and the system amplifier manufacturer guidelines when selecting the correct transformer tap to match your zone load. Verify ceiling material and joist spacing before cutting to ensure proper backcan clearance and secure mounting.
