Control 89MS 8" Above-Ground Landscape Subwoofer

The JBL Control 89MS is an above-ground landscape subwoofer built to add low-frequency depth to the JBL Control 80 Series speaker line or any other outdoor system already in place. A down-firing, long-throw 8-inch driver reaches down to 40 Hz and produces up to 115 dB peak output, giving lawns, gardens, and hotel entrance areas real bass instead of a thin, midrange-heavy mix. A dual-slope low-pass crossover blends the subwoofer into a full-range system cleanly whether it runs off a shared amplifier channel or a dedicated subwoofer channel. The premium multi-tap transformer covers 70V and 100V distributed systems, with an 8-ohm bypass for anyone driving it directly at low impedance instead. Weatherproofing runs deep here: an IP56 rating, a tough polyethylene enclosure with a fully sealed center wiring chamber, and stainless steel external hardware keep the unit performing through rain, humidity, and sun exposure. Like its enclosure, the color extends through the cabinet material, so scrapes from trimming or foot traffic will not show a different shade. A powder-coated stainless steel grille rounds out the build, resisting rust even after years outdoors in a hotel, restaurant, resort, or theme park entrance area.
