JBL Control 226C/T Premium Coaxial Ceiling Speaker (CONTROL 226C/T)

The JBL Control 226C/T is a premium-performance coaxial ceiling loudspeaker engineered for high-quality commercial and professional installed audio applications. As part of JBL’s advanced Control Contractor Series, the Control 226C/T combines exceptional sonic accuracy, high output capability, and wide coverage characteristics, making it ideal for demanding background music, foreground music, paging, and speech reinforcement systems.

At the heart of the speaker is a 6.5-inch Kevlar-reinforced woofer paired with a 1-inch compression driver, delivering outstanding full-range audio performance. The Kevlar woofer provides excellent rigidity and durability for accurate low- and mid-frequency reproduction, while the compression driver ensures clear, detailed, and highly intelligible high-frequency output. Together, they create a balanced and dynamic sound signature suitable for both music and speech applications.

The Control 226C/T supports 150 watts of power handling, allowing it to deliver high output levels with minimal distortion in demanding commercial environments. Its premium transducer design provides enhanced clarity, greater dynamic range, and superior performance compared to conventional ceiling loudspeakers.

An integrated 68-watt 70V/100V multi-tap transformer enables seamless integration into distributed audio systems while also supporting flexible installation requirements. This allows the speaker to be deployed efficiently across large facilities where multiple loudspeakers are connected through constant-voltage audio networks.

With a broad 120-degree coverage pattern, the Control 226C/T delivers even sound distribution across the listening area, helping reduce coverage gaps while maintaining consistent audio quality throughout the space. The wide dispersion characteristics make it suitable for distributed audio applications requiring uniform coverage and natural sound reproduction.

Designed for professional ceiling installation, the speaker includes a C-ring and tile rails to provide secure mounting support and simplified installation in suspended ceiling environments. These included accessories help distribute weight properly and contribute to a reliable, long-term installation.

The speaker’s architectural design blends discreetly into commercial interiors while delivering premium JBL sound quality. Its combination of high-output capability, premium transducer technology, and broad coverage makes it an excellent choice for applications requiring superior audio performance from a ceiling-mounted loudspeaker.

Sold as a pair, the Control 226C/T is ideal for multi-speaker distributed audio systems where consistent coverage, high intelligibility, and premium sound quality are essential.

Ideal for hotels, restaurants, retail stores, conference centers, corporate offices, educational facilities, healthcare environments, houses of worship, hospitality venues, entertainment spaces, and commercial AV installations, the JBL Control 226C/T delivers powerful, accurate, and professional-grade ceiling audio performance.
