JBL VRX932LAP 12" 2-Way Powered Line Array Loudspeaker Sys (Pair)

12 inch. Two-Way Powered Line Array Loudspeaker System

The VRX932LAP is a powered, lightweight, compact 12" two-way line-array speaker system designed for use in arrays of up to five units. VRX932LAP is the ideal choice when line-array performance is needed but the venue size doesn't call for the very long-throw characteristics of larger line-arrays and a fast and easy setup is vital.

Features:

• Built-in JBL Drivepack® DPC-2 amplifier module designed by Crown provides 1750 Watts of peak  Power. DSP based resident input module provides system optimization and EQ functionality.
• JBL's exclusive neodymium magned Differential Drive® woofer for high-power capacity and light-weight.
• VRX932LAP features 3 x 2408J Annular Ring Diaphragm HF drivers. The 2408 represents the  latest in JBL Professional compression driver design.
• Constant Curvature waveguide for unprecedented array coherence.
• Integral rigging hardware for simple connection of enclosures and optional array frame. Dual  angle pole socket for aiming flexibility.
• Array Configuration Selector permits "array shading"

Application:

• Music playback and sound reinforcement in mid-size venues.
• Entertainers, corporate A/V professionals and sound system hire companies.
• Permanent Installation

The Constant Curvature waveguide mounts three compression drivers on a continuous arc. When additional VRX932LAP speakers are added to the array the uninterrupted arc continues. In effect, all the drivers work together as if they were a single driver on a very long waveguide. Since there are three drivers in each VRX932LAP, the combined power handling and acoustic output of the system is far greater than a single driver could achieve.

VRX932LAP uses “amplitude shading” to shape the coverage of the array. Switches on the input plate allow, for example, the upper box in an array to reach a distant balcony while the lower box is shaded back to reduce excessive level at the front of the listening area. This yields to a more coherent sound field and less feedback problems.

One or two VRX932LAP’s may also be used on a tripod or over subwoofers. The integrated rigging hardware is used to securely lock the array together while the dual-angle pole socket provides aiming flexibility.

As many as five VRX932LAP speaker systems may be suspended in a single array for a nominal vertical coverage of up to 75°. Suspended applications require the JBL VRX-AF array frame or eye bolts (available separately).
