Product Overview
The JBL Control 12C/T is a compact 3-inch passive ceiling loudspeaker for commercial background music and paging, sold as a pair. The /T designation indicates an onboard transformer for 70V and 100V distributed-line systems, making it a practical choice for multi-zone commercial audio. Its small format suits offices, retail, and hospitality ceilings where discreet, even coverage is the priority.
Product Description
The Control 12C/T is built for cost-effective distributed audio in commercial spaces. The compact full-range driver delivers clear speech and background music, while the onboard transformer lets integrators tap the speaker onto a 70V or 100V line for large multi-speaker zones with simple parallel wiring. As a ceiling-mount loudspeaker, it installs into standard ceiling layouts for retail floors, offices, restaurants, and paging systems. Sold in pairs, the Control 12C/T provides an economical building block for distributed commercial audio.
