25 – 80 watts suggested amplifier power range

JBL engineers designed the SP6CII in-ceiling loudspeaker to produce accurate, enveloping sound from an AVR (audio/video receiver) or amplifier capable of delivering up to 80 watts of power.

6-1/2" (165mm) titanium-laminate cone for enhanced bass response

Realistic reproduction of music requires clean, undistorted low frequencies. The JBL SP6CII in-ceiling loudspeaker features a 6-1/2-inch (165-millimeter) titanium-laminate woofer cone that offers great stiffness for low distortion. Rubber surrounds ensure durability, while extended polepieces produce deep, powerful bass with little distortion. The result is enveloping, satisfying audio reproduction from the bottom up.

Detailed high-frequency sound reproduction

The SP6CII in-ceiling loudspeaker’s thin but rigid 1-inch (25-millimeter) titanium-laminate tweeter delivers accurate, clear high-frequency response, even at elevated volume levels. The tweeter’s swivel-mount means that you can direct high frequencies exactly where you want them.

Elliptical Oblate Spheroidal (EOS) waveguide for “sit-anywhere” sound

Forget about “sweet spots.” With proprietary JBL Elliptical Oblate Spheroidal (EOS) waveguide technology, your whole room becomes a perfect listening position. Originally designed for JBL Professional LSR studio monitors, the SP6CII in-ceiling loudspeaker’s EOS waveguide distributes sound evenly throughout the playback area.

Low profile and easy installation

With a mounting depth of just 4-1/4 inches (108 millimeters) and weighing only 4.5 pounds (2.0 kilograms), the lightweight, space-saving SP6CII in-ceiling loudspeaker offers maximum installation flexibility. A cutting template and integrated dog-ear brackets accommodate retrofit applications, while rough-in frames are available for new construction.

Paintable grille and frame

The JBL SP6CII in-ceiling loudspeakers offer outstanding performance, but that doesn’t mean that they have to stand out in a room. You can paint the frames and grilles so that the loudspeakers match your ceiling color and decor. You’ll hardly notice SP6CIIs – until you turn them on.

Two powerful JBL speakers. One serious audio upgrade.

A pair of JBL® SP6CII in-ceiling loudspeakers offers any home true JBL-quality sound without taking up valuable floor or shelf space. The SP6CII’s 6-1/2-inch (165-millimeter) titanium-laminate, low-frequency woofer delivers exceptional bass, while a swivel-mounted, titanium-laminate tweeter produces accurate, clear high-frequency output. A proprietary waveguide and 80 watts of power handling ensure that the SP6CII distributes sound evenly and smoothly. Movies sound more enveloping within your home theater, and your favorite music comes alive throughout the house. Shallow mounting depths increase your installation options; and the SP6CII’s paintable frame and grille let the in-ceiling loudspeakers blend into any room decor.

Newbie in HTS. Is it advisable/OK to have SP8II (In-Wall 100w) and SP6CII (In-Ceiling 80w) on a 7.2 HTS? If OK, will an amplifier able to deliver 80W and 100w for these 2 speaker types? Any issues you see. Thanks in advance.

Asked by: NewbieInHTS
You can definitely connect the JBL SP8II and JBL SP6II on a 7.2 capable receiver as long as the receiver can support an 8 ohm load. The JBL SP8II can take up to 100Wrms and the JBL SP6II can take up to 80Wrms. You would need to look for an amplifier that is rated at 80W or 100W per channel for you to maximize the speakers. It is the amplifier that dictates the wattage and it is the speaker that dictates the impedance (ohms).

Whats the difference between those and SP6II?

Asked by: giga
You can use either speaker for in-wall or in-ceiling application. The only reason the SP6CII is considered an in-ceiling speaker is because of its mounting dimension.  Walls are not as deep as ceilings. Since the SP6CII has more depth than the SP6II, it may not fit inside most walls.  Also the SP6II is rectangular in shape, while the SP6CII is circular.

Thinking of buying these and SP8II for a home theatre setup.. use the SP6II for rear surround. Is that the right application? do these come with grills / covers? also what center channel would go with these speakers?

Asked by: rajnewbie
The SP6CII comes with grilles upon purchase. You can pair the SP6CII with any of the dedicated center channels on our website on this link: https://www.jbl.com/loudspeakers/

What is the IP rating on these speakers? Are they Fully Weather resistant?

Asked by: youwishyouknew
Thank you for your question. The JBL SP6CII are not IP rated and are strictly in-door/ in-ceiling speakers.

What is the dispersion, or "coverage angle" of these SP6Cii speakers?

Asked by: Ewmcdade
We have never measured or published the dispersion of our in-wall/ceiling speakers. For the most part these speakers are designed and used for home audio general listening, in which case, this spec has never been needed.

Can these be used for outdoor, installed in patio ceiling?

Asked by: dnunknown
These speakers are designed for use indoors. In theory, these can be used outdoors by a patio ceiling, but it does not have built-in protection against exposure to the elements, so we do not recommend it.
