The high technology cone driver is designed with a lightweight high temperature Kapton voice coil former and aluminum coupling ring to reduce distortion and extend the high frequency response of the system. The FEA-optimized motor construction and cone geometry allow for smooth frequency response and improved off-axis performance. A high temperature grade voice coil insures stable performance under long term high power working conditions. The butyl rubber surround provides long-term durability and good sonic damping, and the polypropylene cone is water and humidity resistant. 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. The compact backcan extends only 138 mm (5.4 inches) behind the baffle, allowing the speaker to fit into more shallow ceiling areas. Ideal for a wide variety of projects, the Control 12C/T-BK 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 15 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).
