Secondary Backcans for JBL Control

Contractor Series Ceiling Speakers

For use with:

Control 24C/CT Micro

Control 24C/CT

Control 26C/CT

While U.S. National Electric Code no longer requires conduit and pre-piping of backcans for 70V distributed speaker lines, there are regions where this may still be required for a particular job either by law or by tradition. In addition to requirements in some regions, a pre-installed backcan can be useful in helping to reserve ceiling space so that other items do not get placed where the speaker is intended to go. To that end, Elkay Industries (not associated with JBL) is making available secondary backcans allowing contractors to pre-pipe installations where JBL Control Contractor ceiling speakers will be installed.

The ELKAY BAF-754-2106 Backcan Enclosure and BAF-754-6 and BAF-754-8 Tile Bridge work together as an assembly for both hard and suspended ceilings. The tile bridge is required in both cases (even when it’s not a suspended ceiling).

The backcan attaches to the tilebridge with included hardware. There are 4 multi-size knockouts on the backcan. Specific method of installation may differ by location. Once the assemblies are in place, with conduit and wiring, any required inspection can be accomplished before the speakers are installed.

The last step is to simply install the JBL Control Contractor Ceiling Loudspeaker. The loudspeaker installs through the ceiling tile and the tile bridge and fastens using the Rotating Mounting Tabs as usual.

26C/CT, 24C/CT MICRO specifications

JBL, renowned for its commitment to delivering high-quality sound, has introduced the JBL 24C/CT and 26C/CT loudspeakers, designed for professional audio environments. These models incorporate advanced technologies and features to provide exceptional audio performance, making them ideal for cinema, commercial spaces, and other critical listening applications.

The JBL 24C/CT is a compact, high-performance loudspeaker that excels in delivering clear and dynamic sound. With its robust build, the 24C/CT is engineered to seamlessly fit into various environments. It features a coaxial transducer design that ensures accurate sound reproduction across the entire frequency range. This design not only provides wide coverage but also minimizes phase issues that can occur when separate drivers are used for high and low frequencies.

On the other hand, the JBL 26C/CT offers a slightly larger form factor, which enhances its output capabilities. This model boasts an extended frequency response, enabling it to reproduce low frequencies with depth and clarity. The 26C/CT is equipped with a high-efficiency transducer that allows it to produce high sound pressure levels, making it suitable for larger spaces or applications where higher volumes are required.

Both models come equipped with JBL’s proprietary Constant Directivity technology, which ensures even sound coverage throughout the listening area. This technology is particularly beneficial in environments where irregular acoustics can lead to uneven sound dispersion. With a wide dispersion pattern, these speakers accommodate diverse audience arrangements, ensuring that every listener experiences consistent audio quality.

The JBL 24C/CT and 26C/CT also prioritize installation convenience. Both models feature multiple mounting options and come with rigging hardware, making them easy to integrate into existing setups or new installations. Their discreet design ensures they blend well into various architectural styles without compromising audio quality.

In terms of durability, both models are built with high-quality materials that withstand the rigors of professional use. Their sleek, modern appearance coupled with robust structural integrity means they are designed to last, providing reliable performance for years to come.

In conclusion, the JBL 24C/CT and 26C/CT loudspeakers represent the ideal choice for professionals seeking high-performance audio solutions. With advanced features such as coaxial transducer design, Constant Directivity technology, and practical installation options, these models deliver an outstanding listening experience tailored to meet the demands of any professional environment.
