 Design | Spec | Order 

Naming - Add a "4"  - New 400 Series SKUs are easily matched to previous generation models by simply adding the number "4" to the beginning of the previous gen SKU. This system will work for most of the New Control 400 SKUs with matched previous gen models.

Old SKU/New SKU Upgrades - Any orders for a Control 10, 20 or 40 series speaker will automatically be upgraded to the new variation of the SKU. For example, a Control 26C/T order will be entered and processed as a 426C/T. 

Grills - Full-face magnetic grilles provide a sleek, refined look to meet the sensibilities of modern architectural design. They are equipped with safety tethers, which mount right into the baffle to ensure peace of mind. Optional black and square accessory grilles are also available to empower added design versatility. 


Rule of thumb on grill shapes and colors: ALL Control 400 Series speaker grills are round and white grill by default. Round black or Square white grills are purchased as separate accessory SKUs. Black speaker SKUs do not exist. Only white SPEAKER SKUs and round black or square white GRILL SKUs. 

Other Accessories - New Construction brackets, mud-rings, and tile rail accessories are available for the entire line-up.  


Brochure  - All specs are available in the Control 400 Series Brochure


Design  - JBL Distributed System Design Software is updated with 400 Series Models. Individual product pages contain EASE Data and DSP Tuning Recommendations.
