JBL Control 227CT Premium Coaxial Ceiling Speaker (CONTROL 227CT)

The JBL Control 227CT is a premium-performance coaxial ceiling loudspeaker designed for professional commercial audio installations that require exceptional sound quality, wide coverage, and flexible distributed audio integration. As part of JBL’s high-performance Control Contractor Series, the Control 227CT delivers powerful full-range audio reproduction for both music and speech applications in demanding installed sound environments.

The speaker features a 6.5-inch Kevlar-reinforced woofer coupled with a 1-inch compression driver, providing outstanding clarity, extended frequency response, and excellent dynamic performance. The Kevlar woofer delivers accurate low- and mid-frequency reproduction with enhanced rigidity and durability, while the compression driver produces detailed high frequencies and superior vocal intelligibility.

With 150 watts of power handling, the Control 227CT is capable of delivering high output levels while maintaining low distortion and excellent audio fidelity. Its premium transducer design makes it ideal for foreground music systems, paging applications, and high-quality distributed audio installations.

An integrated 68-watt 70V/100V multi-tap transformer allows the Control 227CT to be easily incorporated into constant-voltage distributed audio systems. This makes it particularly suitable for large commercial facilities where multiple loudspeakers are connected across extensive audio zones while maintaining installation flexibility and system scalability.

The speaker provides a wide 120-degree coverage pattern, ensuring consistent sound distribution throughout the listening area. The broad dispersion characteristics help reduce coverage gaps, delivering uniform audio quality and improved listener experience across commercial spaces.

The coaxial driver architecture provides smooth frequency integration and consistent off-axis performance, resulting in balanced sound reproduction throughout the coverage area. This design helps maintain audio clarity and tonal consistency regardless of listener position.

The Control 227CT is designed for use with a compatible pre-install backcan, allowing system designers and installers to select the appropriate enclosure solution based on project requirements. This modular approach provides installation flexibility while supporting optimal acoustic performance.

Its architectural ceiling-mounted design integrates discreetly into commercial interiors while delivering premium JBL sound quality. The speaker is ideal for installations where aesthetics, performance, and distributed audio capability are equally important.

Sold individually, the Control 227CT offers flexible deployment options for both small and large-scale commercial audio systems.

Ideal for hotels, restaurants, retail stores, corporate offices, conference centers, educational facilities, healthcare environments, hospitality venues, entertainment spaces, houses of worship, and commercial AV installations, the JBL Control 227CT delivers professional-grade distributed audio performance with exceptional clarity, coverage, and reliability.
