JBL’s patent-pending Radiation Boundary

Integrator

®

(RBI) technology, adapted from the

groundbreaking V

ER

T

EC

™ Series of line array

loudspeakers, delivers consistent coverage of the

listening area. Combining a large 200 mm (8 in)

diameter waveguide with low-frequency

projection apertures, the two coaxially-mounted

drivers provide a seamless integration of

coverage, resulting in extremely even pattern

control and coverage where all listeners hear a

consistent, high-fidelity sound quality. The wide

120° coverage pattern allows for the use of

fewer speakers, reducing the cost of the

installed system without sacrificing performance.

Excellent sound quality coupled with stylish

design and easy installation makes the Control

65P/T ideal for a wide variety of applications

including retail, restaurants, hotels, casinos,

fitness centers, convention centers, exhibit

spaces, conference rooms, atriums, museums,

transit centers and other open-ceiling

applications.

The Control 65P/T includes a single-point

mounting system for easy and secure suspension

in open-ceiling applications. Two complete

hanging cable systems are included, providing

both main and safety suspension cables. Include

are extra-long 4.5 m (15 foot) high tensile

galvanized steel wire rope having spring clips

for the loudspeaker end of the cable and UL

listed cable fasteners for infinitely adjustable

suspension height.

The system’s 130 mm (5

¼ in) low-frequency

driver features a polypropylene-coated cone and

25 mm (1 in) copper voice coil with vented

fiberglass resin coil-former for high power

handling and improved long-term reliability. The

coaxially-mounted 20 mm (

¾ in) textile soft-

dome high frequency driver features internal

damping for smooth extended response, along

with an aluminum voice coil former and

neodymium magnet assembly with ferro-fluid

cooling, for high-fidelity sound quality with

enhanced long-term sound level capability.

The Control 65P/T contains a high-quality 60

Watt multi-tap transformer for use on 70V/100V

distributed loudspeaker lines, and is switchable

for 8-ohm voice-coil direct operation.

Euro-style clip-in connectors allow for easy

wiring. For protected outdoor applications,

rubber boots are included to cover the input

connectors, and an optional terminal cover is

available for harsher locations.
