JBL CBT 70J | 2-Way Line Array Column + Asymmetrical Vertica

Description:

The CBT 70J, with Constant Beamwidth Technology™, represents a breakthrough in pattern control consistency, utilizing complex analog delay beam-forming and amplitude tapering to accomplish superior, consistent vertical coverage without the narrow vertical beaming and out-of-coverage lobing that are typical of straight form-factor column speakers. Also available in white.

Features:

-Asymmetrical vertical coverage sends more sound towards the far area of the room to make front-to-back sound levels more consistent.

-Components: Sixteen 25 mm (1 in) soft dome tweeters and four 125 mm (5 in) high-power LF drivers, arranged coaxially.

-Patent-pending Constant Beamwidth Technology™ provides constant directivity up to the highest frequencies and reduces out-of-coverage lobing.

-Vertical pattern coverage switchable between 45° for medium-throw coverage and 25° for long-throw applications.

-Switchable voicing provides flat response in music mode or mid-range presence peak in speech mode.

-Dynamic SonicGuard™ overload protection of HF devices

-Wall bracket included.
