Applications:
Control 16C/T is a full-range ceiling speaker
consisting of a 165 mm (6.5 inch) high tech
cone driver and a 19mm soft-dome liquid
cooled tweeter mounted in a vented, paintable
baffle made of UV resistant UL94-V0 and
UL94-5HB material, with a pre-attached blind-
mount backcan for quick and easy installation.
The speaker is designed to provide excellent
sound quality for a wide variety of medium to
high volume applications such as music cafes,
business music systems, retail stores, music/
paging systems, airports, reception/waiting
rooms, lounges, courtrooms, convention
centers, hotels, educational facilities, and more.
The speaker delivers consistent sound quality
for listeners located both off and on axis.
The high technology 165 mm (6.5 in) low-
frequency driver is designed with a lightweight,
high temperature anodized aluminum voice
coil former and high temperature grade voice
coil for stable performance and reliability under
long-term high power working conditions.
The butyl rubber surround provides long-
term durability and excellent sonic damping
while the polypropylene cone is water and
humidity resistant. The FEA-optimized motor
construction and cone geometry, along with
linear suspension spider design, allow for a
smooth frequency response and more consistent
off-axis performance. The 19 mm (3/4 in) high
frequency driver features a highly damped
treated silk dome for clear and warm sound, a
lightweight Kapton™ voice coil for better high
frequency response and excellent reliability, low
viscosity liquid cooling for power handling and
reliability, and a wide dispersion waveguide
design to produce wide coverage and smooth
frequency response.
The removable locking connector has screw
terminals for secure wire termination and “loop
through” terminals. A dual strain relief assembly
provides clamping for use with cable or flex
conduit.
Ideal for a wide variety of projects, the
Control 16C/T is switchable for use as either
an 8 ohm low-impedance speaker or as part
of a 70V or 100V distributed loudspeaker
system with a 30 Watt multi-tap transformer.
The speaker comes complete with two tile rail
supports, one C-ring support backing plate,
cutout template, paint shield and grille. A safety
seismic attachment ring is provided on the top
surface. Available in white or black (-BK).
