Overview

The JBL MTC-24NC is a six-piece pre construction bracket kit designed to simplify and improve the installation of JBL Control Series ceiling speakers, including the Control 19CS.

This kit is ideal for projects requiring multiple speakers, such as in restaurants, offices, classrooms, or home theaters.

Installation and setup

These brackets are installed during the framing stage of construction, allowing installers to mark and secure speaker locations early in the build process. The integrated wings lock into framing members, ensuring the bracket remains fixed in place. This setup provides a reliable guide for drywall cutting and cable routing, reducing the risk of misalignment or damage to the ceiling surface. Once drywall is finished, speakers drop into the pre-cut openings with a flush and centered fit.

Ideal uses and environments

The MTC-24NC bracket kit is well suited for commercial and residential audio projects that require multiple ceiling speakers. It works effectively in environments such as restaurants, offices, classrooms, and home theaters where consistent speaker placement and clean installation are important. Contractors and system integrators benefit from the time savings and reduced drywall repairs, while DIY renovators gain confidence in achieving professional results.
