JBL CBT 100LA-1 Constant Beamwidth Technology Line Array Column Loudspeaker - Black
The JBL CBT 100LA-1 in black is a professional-grade passive column loudspeaker designed for superior sound clarity and consistent vertical coverage. Utilizing JBL’s patent-pending Constant Beamwidth Technology™, this loudspeaker provides a breakthrough in pattern control consistency, reducing typical vertical beaming and out-of-coverage lobing common in traditional column speakers. Equipped with sixteen 50 mm (2 inch) full-range drivers with dual neodymium magnets and copper-capped pole pieces, it delivers powerful and distortion-minimized audio output suitable for spaces such as lecture halls, conference rooms, churches, and outdoor venues. Its weather-treated, fiberglass reinforced ABS cabinet and rust-resistant aluminum grille ensure durability in harsh conditions, making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor installations.

- Switchable Voicing: Offers a flat frequency response in music mode and a mid-range presence boost in speech mode for enhanced intelligibility.
- Dynamic SonicGuard™ Protection: Limits low-frequency excursion dynamically to minimize distortion and protect drivers from damage caused by overpowering.
