Frequently asked questions
Can I use these products together?
No. The Control 65P/T-WH is a complete mid-range ceiling speaker. The SRX906LA BP is a base plate accessory for subwoofers only. They address different frequency ranges and installation methods.
Which is better for live performance?
The SRX906LA BP is purpose-built for live sound touring when paired with compatible subwoofers. The Control 65P/T-WH is designed for fixed commercial installations like conference rooms or retail spaces, not mobile live rigs.
What is the RBI technology mentioned on the Control 65P/T-WH?
RBI (Radiation Boundary Integrator) is JBL's waveguide technology adapted from their VERTEC line arrays. It minimizes phase distortion and acoustic dead zones typical of standard ceiling speakers, ensuring more controlled, focused sound projection across the space.
Do I need any adapters with the SRX906LA BP?
Yes. The SRX906LA BP requires an M20 pole mount adapter to connect to compatible SRX906LA subwoofers. The base plate itself provides M20 screw connection and three M10 through-holes for mounting to stage structures.
