JBL Conceal C86 Dual Panel Invisible In-Wall Speaker (Each)
The JBL Conceal Series combines patented technologies with JBL’s acoustic design to deliver a product that truly disappears into the room. The products in the Conceal Series include a compression moulded baffle with a proprietary FidelityGlassTM acoustic panel, an integrated rear enclosure, and advanced transducers and network designs. The products install as easily as a standard drywall patch and feature a paintable surface that can also be custom finished. With a broad hemispherical coverage pattern and no visible components, JBL Conceal Series loudspeakers can be discreetly and optimally located throughout an environment, immersing the listener in great sound that is heard and not seen.
The C86 is the flagship of the JBL Conceal Series. This invisible architectural loudspeaker features a dual panel design for optimum acoustic performance. Each panel includes a rigid frame that houses the drivers and acoustic components that would be found on a conventional visible architectural in-wall or in-ceiling loudspeaker. The frame attaches directly to the structural framing of the wall, while the face of the loudspeaker – the FidelityGlassTM panel – features a smooth and durable surface that is designed to be finished in a similar fashion to the wallboard surrounding it. With the edges of the loudspeaker flush to the wallboard, the seams are taped and spackled using common methods and techniques. Once sanded and properly prepared, you simply need to paint or wallpaper the surface of the loudspeaker to match your desired finish.
The complete invisibility of the Conceal Series products combined with their broad hemispherical acoustic coverage pattern allows for optimal placement virtually anywhere in a room, be it in a wall or ceiling location. The finished aesthetic benefits far exceed that of a traditional in-wall or in-ceiling loudspeaker, resulting in a new level of performance.

Optional JBL Pre-Construction Board for C86
Pre-Construction Boards (PCB) are for temporary use as part of the installation process for any of the JBL Conceal Series of invisible speakers into new construction. PCBs are designed to install during pre-wire and reserve the proper speaker opening as the wallboard is installation around them.
Additionally, they prevent speakers from being exposed to the harsh construction environment. Each PCB is then replaced with a speaker panel just before drywall seam finishing begins.
Pre-Construction Boards are available in each of the three speaker sizes and come 6 per carton. Pre-Construction Boards are designed to be reusable and should be saved after each project.
