Description
JBL MTC-TB6/8 Tile-bridge For Control 200 & 300 Series
The MTC-TB6/8 is a professional-grade mounting solution engineered for seamless integration into suspended ceiling installations. This tile-bridge system stabilizes Control 227C/227CT and Control 328C/328CT loudspeakers within standard 24-inch (600 mm) ceiling grids, eliminating the rattle and vibration transmission that compromises acoustic performance in commercial installations.
Installation & Compatibility
Designed to work with either the MTC-200BB6 backcan (for Control 227 series) or the MTC-300BB8 backcan (for Control 328 series), this tile-bridge mounts directly to 24-inch ceiling grid systems. The over-the-grid design decouples the speaker from the ceiling structure, significantly reducing unwanted noise transmission and grid rattle that would otherwise degrade audio clarity in offices, retail, and hospitality environments.
Build & Durability
Constructed from heavy-duty 18-gauge steel with an epoxy-based powdercoat finish, the MTC-TB6/8 delivers long-term durability in demanding commercial settings. The robust materials resist corrosion and maintain structural integrity under sustained load, ensuring reliable performance across years of deployment.

Which JBL Control speakers does the MTC-TB6/8 work with?
The MTC-TB6/8 is compatible with Control 227C/227CT speakers (paired with MTC-200BB6 backcan) and Control 328C/328CT speakers (paired with MTC-300BB8 backcan). It mounts to standard 24-inch (600 mm) suspended ceiling grids.
How does this tile-bridge reduce ceiling rattle and vibration?
The over-the-grid design acoustically decouples the speaker from the ceiling structure, preventing vibration transmission that causes grid rattle. Heavy-duty 18-gauge steel construction provides structural stability and isolates unwanted noise that would degrade audio clarity.
What are the physical dimensions and weight?
The MTC-TB6/8 measures 646 mm (25.4 in) length × 413 mm (16.25 in) width with a 310 mm (12.2 in) speaker opening. Net weight is 2.1 kg (4.5 lb) per unit; six units ship per box at 3.0 kg (6.5 lb) per unit.
Will this work in outdoor or portable sound environments?
No—the MTC-TB6/8 is designed exclusively for permanent commercial installations in suspended ceiling systems (offices, retail, hospitality). It is not rated for outdoor or portable live-sound applications.
What finish does it have and how durable is it?
The tile-bridge features an epoxy-based powdercoat finish on 18-gauge steel, engineered to resist corrosion and maintain structural integrity under sustained load across years of commercial deployment.
