Sleek. Smart. Sound.
VXL series line array speakers offer a unique combination of outstanding sound quality and slim form that is ideal for a variety of environments.
Line array speakers offer excellent projection as well as uniform volume and sound quality over a wide service area, making them a great choice for multipurpose halls, lecture halls, conference rooms, and other facilities that require maximum intelligibility throughout the listening area.
The VXL series includes three models with different numbers of speaker units. Models can be combined to optimally serve a variety of spaces and situations.
Slim 54-millimeter-wide cabinets and elegantly curved grille designs blend beautifully with any décor while delivering uniform, top-quality sound for speech and music reproduction in a wide range of applications.
Slim Line Arrays Blend High Sound Quality with Visual Elegance
The VXL series cabinets are only 54 millimeters wide, presenting a slim, elegant profile that blends effortlessly with any décor. The key to the slim dimensions of these remarkable speakers is their compact 1.5-inch full-range driver units. Of course visual appeal is not the only goal. These small drivers have been painstakingly designed with neodymium magnets and top-quality materials throughout to deliver natural response right down to 77 Hz* , for full-range performance that is ideal for speech as well as music reproduction.
*In the case of VXL 1 - 24
High-performance drivers with neodymium magnets are arranged vertically to create a line source that achieves outstanding projection. The sound does not spread in the vertical direction and unnecessary reflection can be avoided, so VXL can delivers high clarity sound to the target area.
Excellent Scalability
The compact driver units used in the VXL series contribute to wide horizontal dispersion. A rear-panel switch allows vertical dispersion to be expanded downward so that a wide range of applications can be accommodated.** Sound pressure level and coverage can be further adjusted as required by combining models with different numbers of driver units, expanding the range of potential applications.
** VXL1-8 vertical dispersion is fixed
Vertical Coverage Expansion
Vertical coverage can be adjusted via a rear-panel switch. Setting the switch to “Wide” expands the dispersion angle in the downward direction only, improving coverage at the front of the listening area in situations where the speakers are installed at a high location.
Flexible Installation Options
In addition to the supplied wall-mount brackets, a comprehensive range of optional hardware is available for convenient system mounting and setup in just about any environment.
In addition to the WMB-L1 wall mount bracket with vertical and horizontal angle adjustment capability, VCB-L1 bracket for vertical speaker coupling, VCSB-L1 bracket for vertical speaker coupling with downward angle adjustment capability, and HCB-L1 bracket for horizontal speaker coupling, an ST-L1 speaker transformer is available for high-impedance system setup.
