HARMAN Professional Solutions, the global leader in audio, video, lighting and control, announced the launch of two new JBL Slim Column Loudspeakers, COL600 (600 mm) and COL800 (800 mm), that are ideal for a variety of applications, including conference and meeting rooms, lecture halls, retail stores, concourses, transit spaces, fill applications and more. Featuring wide horizontal and narrow vertical coverage with a built-in 10° down-tilt to the aim, both COL Series models deliver optimum coverage for most listening areas while allowing the speaker to be installed flat to the wall. Multi-tap transformers allow for use on either 70V or 100V distributed speaker lines, while the speaker is switchable for direct 8-ohm operation. Available in black or white, versatile installation is accommodated by two included L-brackets, which can be installed on either the top or bottom panels. These speakers can be installed indoors or outdoors and feature an IP54 rating (per IEC60529) for protection against ingress of dust or water.
