JBL Professional Control 52 - Surface Mount Satellite Speaker (White, 2 Pack)
The JBL Professional Control 52 is an ultra-compact, wall-mountable mid-high satellite speaker designed for background and foreground music systems where maximum aesthetic discretion is desired without sacrificing clarity. Its 60 mm (2.5") low-distortion driver offers very wide coverage (up to 150° average at 1–4 kHz) with a smooth response for both vocals and music. Designed for integration into sub/satellite systems, it can work with Control 50S/T , Control 60PS/T , or Control 40CS/T subwoofers, which incorporate a crossover and allow you to power two or four Control 52 satellites depending on the application. This pack contains two white (-WH) units and includes wall mounts .
The Control 52's driver combines a polypropylene cone with a butyl surround , a 19 mm voice coil on a vented Nomex former , an auxiliary magnet for increased efficiency, and a copper pole piece to extend the treble response. With a nominal impedance of 16 Ω , 50 W program (2 h) , and a maximum SPL of 100 dB peak at 1 m, it allows for grouping multiple units per channel and covering large areas with a reduced number of speakers. The included spherical stand allows each cabinet to be angled up to 45° off-axis , facilitating precise focus on the audience area. The HIPS enclosure and zinc-plated steel grille ensure durability, while the 2-pin Euroblock connectors streamline professional wiring.
