Featuring the performance of high end line arrays in two compact 8 inch and 12 inch formats. It is affordable, flexible and provides outstanding coverage and coherence. The VRX900 series shares components with the JBL VERTEC® Line Array Series, the worldwide touring industry standard. It is perfectly suited for use in smaller venues and small to medium sound reinforcement projects. Delivering extraordinary power handling, clarity and flexibility, the VRX900 Line Array speakers feature the hallmark of all JBL products

- Stunning, legendary JBL sound.

VRX900 Subwoofer

For applications requiring the sonic and practical advantages of integrating the subwoofers into the flying array JBL offers the VRX918S and the VRX915S, two compact, high power, suspendable subwoofer systems using 15 inch and 18 inch Differential Drive® woofers in front loaded vented enclosures. The VRX918S was designed specifically for use in arrays with the VRX932LA, as the VRX915S complements perfectly the VRX928LA. Both subwoofers are equipped with a top-

mounted, threaded, M20 socket that can receive the optional SS4-BK adjustable pole.

VRX915M Stage Monitor

The VRX915M is a dedicated, compact and lightweight 15 inch touring-class floor monitor. Its symmetrical designed enclosure enables convenient left-right orientation. With its low stage height and JBL's latest neodymium-magnet transducers, it delivers world class performance in the most demanding applications.

Constant Curvature Array

The challenge in designing a world-class line array is to create a controlled, coherent coverage pattern regardless of the number of cabinets used in the array. JBL’s Constant Curvature Array Design does that and more. The VRX waveguide mounts three compression drivers on a continuous arc enabling them to work together acoustically as if they were a single driver, while dramatically increasing the power handling and acoustic output when compared to a single driver system. Additional enclosures can be added creating an uninterrupted, continuous arc with all of the drivers working together seamlessly as if they were one driver on a very long waveguide. This innovative technology provides unprecedented output coherence and stunning, clear high-frequency sound quality regardless of the configuration.

Amplitude Shading

Covering a venue with a smooth, consistent sound field is key

to the success of any professional sound reinforcement project. The VRX accomplishes this with JBL’s Array Configuration Selector, a convenient series of switches on each enclosure that controls the output of each high-frequency section in the array. With the VRX’s amplitude shading you can set the upper enclosures in an array configuration to deliver more output for reaching a distant balcony while the lower enclosures can be ‘shaded back’ with less output for the front rows of the venue. Each section of the venue can be fine tuned for a balanced, seamless

overall coverage pattern.

Array Tool

The VRX932LA and VRX928LA array tools provide visual help for the user to better understand and deploy a VRX900 Line Array. It can be found here: http://www.jblpro.com/vrx/ARRAYTOOL.HTML . Acoustic performance can be quickly assessed by simply creating a two dimensional view of the environment the VRX900 system would be used in. The effect of adding systems to the array and adjustments of the Array Configuration Selector can be quickly analyzed.
