The JBL VLA901 from the Variable Line Array Series is a revolutionary product providing high-impact sound reinforcement at throw distances beyond the reach of traditional loudspeaker designs.

Description

The JBL VLA901 offers 90° of horizontal coverage, the vertical coverage will vary with the array size and configurations.
 
Variable Line Array Series (VLA Series) is a revolutionary product providing high-impact sound reinforcement at throw distances beyond the reach of traditional loudspeaker designs. The modular design concept provides the system designer the ability to build large line array systems for larger venue applications or to design smaller line array systems for use as distributed clusters in arenas, domed stadiums and larger performance spaces, including large houses of worship.

VLA is designed specifically for permanent installation applications where even coverage, intelligibility, and levels capable of overcoming crowd noise are required.

VLA modules are based on the same advanced engineering used in the highly successful VERTEC® Series line array systems.

 

Features

  • Line array module optimized for permanent install applications
  • Standard version featuring 3 HF drivers, 2 MF drivers, & 2 LF drivers
  • Rugged DuraFlex™ xterior finish and weatherized components. JBL’s WRC or WRX weather protections also available
