High-Power 12-Inch Coaxial Ceiling Speaker for Professional Audio
The JBL Control 322C is a robust 12-inch coaxial ceiling speaker designed to deliver high-quality voice amplification and foreground music reproduction in commercial environments. Ideal for offices, retail stores, restaurants, and waiting rooms, this speaker combines power and precision for a seamless audio experience. It is compatible with 8-Ohm power amplifiers (sold separately) and provides exceptional sound clarity with a long-term power capacity of 400W and peak power of 1600W.

Kevlar-Reinforced Cone for Reliable Performance
The Control 322C features a durable 12-inch Kevlar-reinforced cone that ensures precise low and midrange frequency reproduction. Acting as a waveguide, the cone ensures consistent performance across the listening area. This design minimizes distortion, providing clean and accurate sound for professional audio installations.

Advanced Compression Driver for High-Frequency Clarity
This speaker is equipped with a medium-format compression driver, which incorporates a radial slot phase plug for smooth, extended high-frequency response. Its lightweight neodymium magnet reduces installation weight without compromising sound quality. The result is clear and detailed highs that complement the powerful low frequencies of the Kevlar cone.

Crossover Network and Broad Coverage for Balanced Audio
The built-in crossover network ensures precise frequency distribution with 18 dB/octave high-pass and 12 dB/octave low-pass filters. The Control 322C offers a 90° broadband coverage pattern, providing even sound dispersion throughout the space. This ensures all listeners experience consistent audio quality, regardless of their location within the room.

Simplified Installation with EZRail System
JBL’s innovative EZRail system simplifies the installation process by securely holding one side of the speaker baffle in place until it can be affixed to a backcan. The removable locking connector with screw-down terminals allows for pre-wiring, saving time and effort during setup. The Control 322C is compatible with the MTC-300SG12 grille and MTC-300BB12 backbox, which are available separately for a professional finish.

Durable Design for Demanding Environments
With a high-temperature 3-inch voice coil and rugged components, the Control 322C is built to handle the demands of commercial audio installations. Its metal throat transitions smoothly to the horn, eliminating high-frequency beaming and ensuring a balanced sound profile. The speaker’s robust construction guarantees long-term reliability.

Versatility for Various Applications
The Control 322C’s powerful performance, combined with its durable design and straightforward installation, makes it suitable for a wide range of professional audio applications. Whether enhancing the ambiance of a restaurant or delivering clear voice amplification in a retail setting, this ceiling speaker delivers dependable results.
