2.5-inch Ultra-Compact In-Ceiling
Satellite Loudspeaker
(1pc)
Overview
The Control 42C is an ultra-compact, in-ceiling satellite loudspeaker designed
for use with the Control 40CS/T in-ceiling subwoofer. When combined with the
Control 40CS/T, the Control 42C offers an extremely natural sounding and
powerful subwoofer-satellite system that is perfect for applications requiring
wide bandwidth and superior sonic performance with minimal visual impact.
Features
- Very broad 160° coverage pattern
- 60 mm (2.5 in) mid-high driver with butyl rubber surround
- 16-ohm driver, allows paralleling of multiple units on a low-Z amplifier
- Integrated back
can for easy “blind-mount” install. Packaged with grille and C-ring support
backing plate for easy installation.
Applications:
- The Control 42C is an ultra-compact
inceiling professional satellite loudspeaker designed for use with the Control
40CS/T subwoofer. When combined with the Control 40CS/T, the Control 42C offers
an extremely natural sounding and powerful subwoofer-satellite system that is
perfect for applications requiring wide bandwidth and superior sonic
performance with minimal visual impact.
- The integrated backcan on the Control 42C combined with the C-ring support
backing plate allows for a quick and easy installation of the unit. The
system’s 60 mm (2.5 in) mid-high driver features a polypropylene cone and pure
butyl-rubber surround for long life. The copper-clad aluminum voice coil wound
on a vented aluminum former offers low distortion.
- The 16-ohm impedance allows paralleling up to 4 speakers on a 4-ohm capable
amplifier. The Control 42C must be operated with either an active high-pass
filter or a passive crossover, such as the one built into the Control 40CS/T
subwoofer, to protect it against damage from low frequencies.
- Because of the very light weight of
Control 42C, tile rails may not be required for many in-ceiling applications.
They are not packaged with this model, however MTC-RAIL tile rail sets are
available separately.
- Housed in a compact package, the
lightweight Control 42C features an elegant, unobtrusive design and is ideal
for both small and large projects alike.
