Description Designed for outdoor applications, the Control 85M from JBL is a weather-resistant mushroom-shaped coaxial speaker offering 360° coverage and a broad frequency range of 55 Hz to 18 kHz. Mounted on or in the ground it provides quality music and paging in a variety of locations including shopping malls, theme parks, sports venues, hotels, casinos, resorts, restaurants, hospitality facilities, and entrance ways. The speaker’s compact enclosure is unobtrusive and blends in with its surroundings. It resists abuse from lawn care equipment and the elements and maintains its hunter green color even when scraped or scratched.Features of JBL Landscape Speaker Control 85M5.25″ weather-resistant driver0.75″ soft-dome weather-resistant tweeter80W pink noise power handling (160W program) in direct 8-Ohm setting, plus built-in 30W 70/100V multi-tap transformerTough polyethylene weather-resistant enclosureFully isolated center chamber for wiring protectionHigh-fidelity sound character with broad frequency range of 55 Hz to 18 kHzSpecifications of JBL Landscape Speaker Control 85MFrequency Response (-10 dB)55 Hz – 18 kHzPower Rating160 W continuous program (2 h) 80 W (320 W peak), continuous pink noise (2 h) 45 W (180 W peak), continuous pink noise (100 h)Transformer Taps70 V: 30, 15, 7.5, and 3.8 W 100 V: 30, 15, and 7.5 WFrequency Response ± 3dB65 Hz – 16 kHzMaximum Input Voltage23.3 VSensitivity86 dB, 1 W at 3.28′ / 1 m (average 80 Hz – 16 kHz)Nominal Coverage Angle360° horizontal, 160° vertical (primary listening 10° to 50° up from ground)DirectivityQ Factor: 2.2Directivity Index3.4 dBMaximum SPL105 dB at 3.28′ / 1 mNominal Impedance8 Ohms (at 8-Ohm setting)Insertion LossUp to 1.0 dB at any tap settingThru8 Ohms nominalCrossover Type2nd order LPF on LF and 2nd order HPF on HFRecommended Protective High-Pass65 Hz for 8-Ohm operation, 24 dB/octave 60 Hz for 30 W tap, 24 dB/octave 50 Hz for 15, 7.5, and 3.7 W taps, 24 dB/octaveLow-Frequency Driver5.25″ / 13.5 cm diameter LF driver, Kapton former, 1.4″ / 3.55 cm voice coil, polypropylene cone and polyurethane surroundHigh-Frequency Driver0.75″ / 1.9 mm diameter HF driver polyetherimide (PEI) domeEnclosure MaterialLDPE polyethylene plastic, 0.23″ / 6 mm wall thickness, UL94V-0 ratedGrillePowder-coated stainless steelEnvironmentalIP-55 rating per IEC529 (dust protected and protected against jets of water) Exceeds MIL-STD 810 for humidity, salt spray, temperature & UV Passes MIL-STD 202F for salt spray Enclosure UL94V0 ratedAgency RatingUL1480, transformer UL recognized per UL1876, ROHS compliantTerminalsBare wire with dielectric-gel-filled wire nuts (internal to top speaker section)WiringWater ingress protected by two stages of gland nuts, one mounted on outside of enclosure (installed by installer via drilling 0.87″ / 22 mm hole in any of multiple provided locations) and one between the bottom base and top speaker sections.
