JBL Control 85M Two-Way 5.25" Coaxial Mushroom Landscape Speaker (Single)

The JBL CONTROL 85M is a two way coaxial landscape speaker created for permanent outdoor installations where consistent, wide coverage and long-term reliability are essential. Styled like a low mushroom, it tucks into garden beds, planters, and path edges while filling the area with clear audio in every direction.

A 5.25 inch woofer handles the mid and low frequencies and a 0.75 inch tweeter reproduces the high end. Because the drivers share a single axis, the speaker delivers a uniform 360 degree dispersion pattern, so background music and paging remain balanced as guests move through a resort walkway, theme park queue, or open-air shopping plaza.

The Control 85M can run on an 8 ohm amplifier for localized zones or on a distributed system thanks to its built-in 30 watt transformer with 70 volt or 100 volt taps. With 80 watts continuous and 160 watts program power handling, it pairs easily with commercial amps commonly found in hospitality and retail projects.

An impact-resistant polyethylene enclosure protects the components against rain, sun, dust, and accidental contact with lawn equipment. The material is pigmented throughout, so scratches do not reveal a different color. A fully sealed wiring chamber and an IP55 rating add extra defense against moisture and dirt.

Installers can place the speaker directly on a hard surface or bury the base for a more discreet look. This flexibility makes it a practical choice for courtyards, pool areas, green spaces around corporate campuses, and any venue that needs dependable outdoor sound without visually intrusive equipment.
