CONFIGURATIONS

FLY YOUR VRX900 ARRAY

VRX900 line arrays and subwoofers may be suspended using the VRX-AF and VRX-SMAF array frame. For fixed installations, 10mm forged eyebolts may also be used. See the VRX900 User Guide for details. www.jblpro.com

POLE MOUNT

To create a small, compact non-flying system, the VRX may be mounted on a tripod. For greater power and low-frequency extension, one or two VRX may be pole-mounted over their companion subwoofer, such as JBL’s SRX718S, VRX918S/SP or VRX915S. JBL’s dual angle pole sockets allow greater flexibility in aiming the speaker directly to the listeners. Unwanted acoustic reflections are reduced and overall system performance is improved.

SINGLE CABINET

When configured for smaller venues, or musicians working alone, the compact size, portability, light weight and stunning performance of the VRX allow it to be used as a single cabinet two-way utility speaker system that can be conveniently mounted on a tripod.

GROUND STACK

For reaching bleacher and stadium seating from ground level, the VRX’s ingenious cabinet design allows it to be ground stacked in configurations of up to 4 enclosures delivering all of the power, clarity and control of a full flown line array system without the additional labor and expense.
