JBL Control 321C 12" Coaxial Ceiling Speaker with HF Compression Driver
The JBL Control 321C has been engineered from the ground up to deliver exceptional next-generation performance in a coaxial point source design ceiling loudspeaker. The low frequency cone performs as a true 12 inch (300 mm) diameter waveguide for the high frequencies. A unique metal throat transitions seamlessly to the horn to eliminate high frequency beaming which is common among this category of speaker. The result is a coaxial speaker with extremely consistent 90deg. coverage on a broadband basis. Component features include a Kevlar reinforced low frequency cone for reliability, well-damped surround for smooth frequency response, high temperature voice-coil and a reduced distortion design through saturated-gap magnet geometry. The high frequency driver features a pure titanium diaphragm for high sensitivity and long life, with diamond surround for resonance control and ferro fluid for increased power handling. The Control 321C is easy to install. The innovative EZRail feature built into the metal baffle temporarily holds one side of the speaker baffle in place until the installer can affix the baffle to the backcan with screws. The removable multi-pin locking connector, with secure screw-down terminals, allows for pre-wiring the input wires for easy clip-on convenience during installation. To ensure long life and reliability, Control 321C passes JBL's 100-hour torture power test. Nobody in the industry has more demanding reliability standards.
