HARMAN JBL Control 31 Two-Way High-Output Indoor-Outdoor Monitor Speaker - White

The HARMAN JBL Control 31 Two-Way High-Output Indoor-Outdoor Monitor Speaker utilizes high-power components, a computer optimized horn, and a complex network to achieve smooth, powerful high-fidelity performance, extended bandwidth, and well-controlled defined coverage from a compact loudspeaker. The low-frequency driver features a woven fiberglass cone for a high degree of weather capability and pure butyl rubber surround for clean sound quality, a high-temperature fiberglass voice coil former for high sensitivity, high output capability and stable performance under long-term high power working conditions. The optimized cone geometry provides for smooth frequency response and good off-axis performance. A linear suspension spider provides low distortion, while FEA-optimized motor construction produces minimum harmonic distortion. An aluminum coupler ring outside the pole post further reduces distortion and further increases the sensitivity.

The high-output high-frequency compression driver features a unique design, high-temperature polymer diaphragm, and fluid-cooling for high output levels with low distortion. The high-frequency waveguide was designed using JBL's advanced ImageControl process for accurate, low-distortion control, with smooth frequency response and excellent sound character throughout the frequency band, over the entire listening area. Its 110° x 110° symmetrical coverage provides the same coverage regardless whether the cabinet is installed in vertical or horizontal orientation. The field-proven high-quality line distribution transformer, designed for minimal insertion loss and reduced saturation, allows for use on either 70 V or 100 V distributed speaker lines. In the Thru setting, the 8 ohm impedance allows for the use of up to two speakers on a 4-ohm capable amplifier channel.

The InvisiBall mounting method is simple to install, aims easily and provides a high degree of theft deterrence. InvisiBall allows horizontal rotation of up to 41° off-axis and vertical rotation of up to 36° (horn end inward) or 23° (woofer end inward). Weather resistance has been maximized. The low-frequency driver features a woven fiberglass cone, a pure butyl rubber surround, and the basket is rear loaded into the baffle to minimize exposure. The high-frequency compression driver has a highly weather capable polymer diaphragm. The grille is thermoset composite coated and stands up well to UV as well as humidity. The grille is backed with the WeatherMax multilayer foam and tight-weave screening to help prevent incursion of water. Nickel/zinc rust-resistant terminals ensure a secure input connection.
