JBL Professional Control 19CST In-Ceiling Subwoofer (sold in pairs)
About This Product
The Control 19CST uses advanced proprietary technologies to produce powerful bass from a low profile in-ceiling design. The Control 19CST is perfectly suited to augment the low frequency output of any of the Control Contractor loudspeakers. High power handling and low distortion make the Control 19CST an ideal addition for sound systems requiring a higher fidelity sound from ceiling loudspeakers.
Control 19CST Features:- Unique Nested Chamber design and Linear
- Component: Long excursion 200 mm (8 in) driver.
- Packaged with grille, backcan and tile rails for fast
- Simple installation and wire connection method.
The unique Nested Chamber design delivers high output from a compact enclosure, while the acoustic lowpass character of this design means it is easy to augment a full-range sound system without an external crossover or separate amp channel. The Linear Dynamics port design originally developed for JBL’s concert speaker systems, produces extended deep bass output.
The Control 19CST is protected from overload damage by JBL’s exclusive SonicGuard circuitry, a protection system that is inaudible to the listener, ensuring reliability while providing full-fidelity sound. The premium performance capability ensures excellent sound character, providing pleasant, enveloping sound throughout the listening area.
The 200 mm (8 in) transducer features a pure butyl rubber surround for extended life and long excursion capability. The pole piece is vented for low distortion.
The Control 19CST can be connected into a system in a number of configurations: In parallel with full-range speakers resulting in a bass-overlap configuration (which is often acceptable); with an electronic crossover and separate amplifier channel, or; In conjunction with an active or passive high-pass filter on the full-range speakers, thus taking advantage of the Control 19CST’s natural acoustic low-pass character.
Input connection is conveniently provided on a removable locking connector (included), providing secure connection via screwdown terminals and allowing a system to be prewired before installing the speaker for fast snap-on convenience. Separate connector terminals are available for the input and for the loop-through wires, making it easy to jumper the speaker signal to additional speakers. The input terminal plate provides strain relief for either bare wire, plenum cable or ½" conduit (12 mm I.D.). The terminal box is securely enclosed to meet safety codes.
The speaker trim and grille are paintable to match any decor. A paint shield is provided for covering the drivers while painting the rim.
Installation of the Control 19CST is quick and easy. The loudspeaker is packaged complete with the backcan, grille, support backing bracket and tile rails.
The entire installation can be accomplished without requiring access above the ceiling. A template is provided for marking the cutout. An innovative C-shaped support backing plate can be installed from below through the cutout to reinforce the top of the ceiling material. Tile bridge rails are included which can be screwed onto the C-plate to extend support to the T-channel grid in suspended ceiling installations. After the speaker is fitted through the cutout, it is held securely in place via three mounting tabs which tighten onto the C-plate, if used, or directly onto the ceiling material.
The Control 19CST backcan is made of formed steel and the speaker is suitable for use in air handling spaces, per U.L.-2043. An attachment loop is provided on the backcan for cabling to the building structure as a secondary support in seismic areas or where required by code.
The optional Control 19CST version includes a high quality multitap transformer designed specifically for subwoofer use in either 70.7V or 100V distributed-line systems. Multiple transformer taps at 75W, 30W and 15W (plus 7.5W at 70.7V) allow the Control 19CSTT to fit a wide variety of listening situations. Taps are selected with a rotary switch conveniently located on the front panel, protected under the grille, so that the speaker does not have to be removed to adjust tap settings. The transformer effectively limits the power to the speaker, so SonicGuard is not included in the Control 19CSTT.
