Jbl Professional Control 88M 8 Inch 2-way Landscape Speaker

Product Description

The JBL PROFESSIONAL CONTROL 88M is an 8-inch, 2-way landscape speaker built for permanent outdoor installation in commercial and residential audio systems. This all-weather unit is designed to deliver consistent audio coverage in exterior environments where exposure to moisture, UV, and temperature variation are ongoing concerns. The speaker is sold individually and is suited for integration into distributed audio systems, background music setups, and outdoor entertainment zones. Licensed audio contractors and AV integrators are the primary installers for this type of fixture.

The CONTROL 88M is intended for landscape and architectural audio applications where the speaker must blend into outdoor surroundings while maintaining reliable acoustic performance. Typical deployments include commercial courtyards, hospitality outdoor areas, restaurant patios, and residential backyard systems. The all-weather construction makes it appropriate for year-round use in climates with rain, humidity, and direct sun exposure.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed AV contractor or low-voltage systems integrator. Disconnect and de-energize the amplifier or audio distribution system before making speaker connections. Follow local low-voltage wiring codes and consult NEC guidelines for outdoor wiring methods when running speaker cable in exterior or buried conduit applications. Verify impedance matching against the connected amplifier or distribution system before commissioning.
