JBL Control 85M Landscape Speaker – 360° Outdoor Coaxial, 5.25-Inch, Green

Outdoor sound that blends with your landscape

The JBL Control 85M Landscape Speaker delivers full‑range sound with 360° coverage, designed to sit in your yard, patio, pool area, or resort landscape. Its 5¼-inch weather‑resistant driver and ¾-inch soft‑dome tweeter balance clarity and warmth across a broad 55 Hz to 18 kHz range, so conversations remain intelligible and music feels natural from every corner of the space.

Power and flexibility matter for outdoor setups. In direct 8 Ω, it handles up to 160 W program power, and it includes a built‑in 30 W 70 V/100 V multi‑tap transformer, letting you connect multiple speakers in larger outdoor installations without sacrificing performance. Whether you’re outfitting a cozy backyard or an expansive outdoor venue, this speaker adapts to your needs with ease.

The Control 85M is designed for landscape integration and outdoor durability without compromising aesthetics. It is built to withstand tough climates, making it a practical choice when you want sound that blends with the surroundings rather than dominates it. Pair it with JBL outdoor subwoofers for deeper bass, or combine several units for a wider, immersive outdoor soundscape.

Durability and easy installation

The rugged enclosure and color‑through material help the speaker maintain its appearance even after scrapes or exposure to weather. A fully isolated center chamber protects wiring, supporting cleaner installations in ground, on a wall, or on a surface. The unit ships as a standalone speaker and is backed by JBL’s authorized North American warranty when purchased from an official JBL dealer.
