JBL Professional loudspeakers for installations, venues and events
JBL Professional makes loudspeakers for installed sound, live events, cinema and studios. This collection lists 355 JBL Professional products: Control ceiling, pendant and in-wall speakers, CBT and Intellivox column speakers, AWC all-weather and AE Series installation speakers, VTX line arrays, PRX, EON, SRX, IRX and VRX portable speakers, subwoofers, 104-BT studio monitors and CSA amplifiers, plus the flying hardware, covers and cases for them. CorporateAV.ae is a supplier of genuine JBL Professional products in the UAE.
JBL speakers sit at the end of the system, so they are chosen with the amplifiers and processing that drive them. For other brands of the same speaker types, compare Loudspeakers and Ceiling & Wall-Mount Speakers.
Choosing between JBL families
Installed ceiling and column speakers
For offices, retail and hotels, JBL Control ceiling speakers range from the compact Control 24CT MicroPlus, with 150° coverage and a 25 W 70 V / 100 V transformer, to the Control 328CT 8-inch coaxial rated at 250 W. For halls and worship spaces, JBL CBT columns control vertical coverage: the CBT 70J-1 switches between 45° and 25°, and the CBT 1000 adds tapered horizontal coverage with bass below 40 Hz.
Weather-resistant and AE Series
For outdoor and demanding installations, the JBL AWC129 all-weather speaker is rated IP56, with 90° × 90° coverage, 400 W handling and a 200 W 70 V / 100 V transformer. The AE (Application Engineered) Series covers fixed installations with rotatable horns, for example the AC28/95, a compact dual 8-inch 2-way speaker with a 90° × 60° horn and 750 W programme rating.
Portable and touring
For events, JBL powered speakers include the amplifier and DSP. The IRX112BT is a 12-inch portable speaker with Bluetooth streaming, dbx automatic feedback suppression and a 53 Hz to 20 kHz response. The PRX915 delivers 1,000 W RMS and 133 dB, and the SRX800 Series adds Crown DriveCore amplification and network control. Large venues and tours use VTX line arrays such as the dual 12-inch VTX A12.
System parts
Subwoofers and amplification
JBL subwoofers extend the bass of each family: the PRX918XLF reaches 30 Hz at -10 dB with 1,000 W RMS, and the dual 18-inch SRX828SP has a 2,000 W Crown DriveCore amplifier. For passive installed speakers, the JBL CSA-2120 amplifier delivers 2 × 120 W at 4 or 8 Ω, convection-cooled for quiet rooms. More options are in Subwoofers and Power Amplifiers.
Rigging and accessories
The collection also lists JBL's own flying hardware, array frames, yoke mounts, covers and transport carts, such as VTX array frames and EON700 yoke mounts. Use JBL rigging for JBL arrays and speakers; VSYS, CorporateAV.ae's own mounting brand, makes no speaker brackets.
Where JBL is used
JBL installed speakers serve offices, retail, restaurants, hotels and places of worship; CBT columns and AE Series speakers serve conference halls, ballrooms and auditoriums; VTX line arrays serve concerts and large venues; and PRX, EON and IRX speakers serve corporate events, rental and mobile DJs. The JBL 104-BT monitors suit edit suites and small studios, with a 60 W Class D amplifier and Bluetooth 5.0. In the UAE, outdoor terraces, pools and beach venues call for the IP56-rated JBL AWC range.
Installation and planning
A JBL system is chosen around the space and the programme. Before ordering, check:
- Coverage: the audience area, ceiling height and distance, to choose between ceiling speakers, columns and arrays.
- Wiring: 70 V / 100 V lines with transformer models (such as Control CT and AWC), or low impedance with amplifier presets.
- Environment: indoor, covered outdoor or exposed, and the rigging points or wall structure available.
Several JBL Control models are sold with and without a transformer, such as the Control 322C and 322CT, so check the version against the wiring plan.
