Control 328CT have been engineered from the ground up to deliver exceptional next-generation performance in a coaxial point source design ceiling loudspeaker. The combination of the low frequency cone and the shaped mounting baffle performs as a true 12 inch (300 mm) diameter waveguide for the high frequencies. A unique metal throat transitions seemlessly to the horn to eliminate high frequency beaming which is common among this category of speaker. The result is a coaxial speaker with wide, extremely consistent 120° coverage on a broadband basis.
Component features include a Kevlarreinforced low frequency cone for reliability, well-damped surround for smooth frequency response, high temperature voicecoil 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 dia-mond surround for resonance control and FerroFluid™ for increased power handling.
The Control 328CT are easy to install. 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.
The transformer version Control 328CT comes with a pre-attached top quality, low saturation 68 Watt multi-tap transformer for 70V/100V distributed speaker lines.
To ensure long life and reliability, Control 328C/CT passes JBL's 100-hour torture power test, the toughest standard in the industry.
