Compact Subwoofer

Key Features:

2 x 250 mm (10 in.) Aluminum/

Ceramic Composite Cone Drivers

400 Watts Power Handling

Fully Outdoor Capable Design

SonicGuard™ Overload Protection

13 x M6 Suspension Inserts,

Including Inserts for Optional U-

AV Shielded

Compact, Low Profile Design

The Control SB210 provides low fre-

quency reinforcement for a wide vari-

ety of sound system applications. Its

compact size, high output and outdoor

capable design makes it one of the

most versatile subwoofers in the instal-

lation market.

The internal angled baffle allows for

a large port opening and compact front

dimensions without compromising dri-

ver size. The SB210 produces warm,

punchy low-end sound.

The Aluminum/Ceramic Composite

Diaphragm 10" Drivers are rated for

pink noise power handling of 200

Watts each, providing 400 Watts 

(1600 Watt peaks) of system power

handling. The dual driver design also

allows for stereo operation of the

enclosure and provides great flexibility

when used with one of the optional

network accessory kits. Choose the

MTC-210-SAT network accessory to

drive a full subwoofer/satellite system

with one amplifier. The network

receives a stereo or mono source, and

sends a high-passed 4-Ohm or 8-Ohm

Satellite output signal for operation

with other Control loudspeakers. The

MTC-210T-SAT network can be used in

same manner when using a 70.7/100-

Volt distributed signal line.

Included with the SB210 are four feet

and four receptacles to allow floor and

shelf mounting as well as reliable stack-

ing of multiple units. The thirteen M6

insert points allow for installation using

forged shoulder eyebolts for suspend-

ing the subwoofer. The Optional U-

Bracket MTC-210UB allows for addi-

tional versatility in mounting.

The High Impact PolyStyrene (HIPS)

cabinet is available in black or white

(SB210-WH) and is paintable. The ther-

moset composite-coated grille stands

up to UV as well as humidity and

direct exposure to water. The grille is

backed with a combination of materials

that, while acoustically transparent, pre-

vent the intrusion of water into the

cabinet even when hit directly, such as

from rain or a sprinkler.

1

Continuous Pink Noise rating is IEC-shaped pink noise with a 6 dB crest factor for 100 hours continuously.

Continuous program power is defined as 3dB above the Continuous Pink Noise Rating and is a conservative expres-

sion of the system’s ability to handle normal speech and music program material.

Calculated from sensitivity and power handling. Power compression is not considered.

JBL continually engages in research related to product improvement.  Some materials, production methods and design

refinements are introduced into existing products without notice as a routine expression of that philosophy.  For this rea-

son, any current JBL product may differ in some respect from its published description, but will always equal or exceed

the original design specifications unless otherwise stated.
