JBL CONTROL 26C

Overview

The JBL CONTROL 26C is a ceiling speaker pair designed to provide clear and balanced sound in spaces where discreet audio solutions are essential. Each speaker features a 6.5-inch woofer combined with a 0.75-inch titanium-coated tweeter, delivering reliable audio performance suitable for background music or more focused listening. With a wide 110-degree coverage area and the ability to handle up to 150 watts of program power, these speakers fill rooms efficiently while maintaining a low profile.

These speakers are built to fit flush into ceilings with an 8.8-inch cutout and 7.5-inch mounting depth, making installation neat and professional. Their humidity-resistant woofer components and paintable grilles ensure they blend well into environments like restaurants, bars, and offices, even where moisture is present.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
