JBL CONTROL 30-WH Three-Way Passive Indoor/Outdoor Monitor Speaker for use with 70/100V Audio Distribution in White Enclosure - (Single)

Product Overview

The JBL Control 30 is a three-way high-output indoor/outdoor monitor loudspeaker built for full-range foreground music and speech reinforcement in demanding commercial AV installations. This surface-mount installation speaker pairs extended low-frequency output with wide, controlled high-frequency coverage, making it well suited to atriums, covered exteriors, themed retail, and large multi-purpose spaces. An integrated 70V/100V transformer with an 8-ohm bypass lets it serve either distributed audio systems or discrete low-impedance zones. The weather-resistant enclosure and JBL InvisiBall mounting system support reliable, aimable placement in horizontal or vertical orientation.

Product Description

The Control 30 is a three-way surface-mount loudspeaker engineered for venues that need higher fidelity and output than a typical two-way installation speaker provides. It uses a 250 mm (10 in) fiberglass/Kevlar cone low-frequency woofer, a coaxial 125 mm (5 in) anodized-aluminum-cone midrange with a neodymium magnet, and a 25 mm (1 in) titanium-diaphragm compression driver, delivering extended bandwidth with smooth, even response. The fully outdoor-capable design features a WeatherMax grille and weather-resistant enclosure for semi-exposed installation, and SonicGuard overload protection guards the high-frequency section during sustained high-output use. A 150 W transformer supports 70V or 100V distributed lines with an 8-ohm thru bypass for low-impedance operation, and the speaker can be mounted horizontally or vertically to suit the room. The included InvisiBall mounting hardware plus ten 6 mm suspension attachment points and an optional U-bracket allow precise aiming.
