CBT100LA-1

Constant Beamwidth Technology™
Line Array Column Loudspeaker
with Sixteen 50 mm (2 in) Drivers

Key Features:
Patent-pending Constant Beamwidth
Technology™ provides constant directivity
up to the highest frequencies and reduces
out-of-coverage lobing.
Vertical pattern coverage switchable between
40° for medium-throw coverage and 15° for
long-throw applications.
Switchable voicing provides flat response in
music mode or mid-range presence peak in
speech mode.
Dynamic SonicGuard™ overload protection
Swivel (pan)/tilt wall bracket included.
Built-in 70V/100V transformer, plus 8 ohm
direct capability.

Overview:
The CBT 100LA-1, 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.
The slim, compact design fits well into
virtually any architectural decor. The 100 cm
(39.4 in) tall line array height provides
consistent pattern control throughout the
intelligibility band, making the CBT 100LA-1
ideal for difficult acoustic environments. The
combination of superior sound quality, excellent
pattern control, and compact design makes CBT
100LA-1 ideal for applications such as lecture
halls, transit centers, conference rooms,
cathedrals, multipurpose spaces, architectural
spaces, and in-wall recessed locations, among
many others.
The innovative coverage adjustability allows
switching between broad and narrow vertical
coverage settings to allow matching the coverage
and throw requirements of the application.
Coverage can be easily switched in-venue with
the speaker already installed. This innovation
allows a single loudspeaker model to excel in an
extremely wide variety of project types.
The voicing can be set to match the
application through the Music/Speech switch.
The Music setting provides flat frequency
response, while the Speech setting produces a
mid-range presence boost to provide clear,
intelligible speech even at the longest throw
distances.
The drivers feature dual neodymium magnets
for light weight. Copper capped pole pieces
lower both the driver inductance and the flux
modulation, resulting in increased high
frequency extension and reduced distortion at
high drive levels. Butyl rubber surrounds

provide long life even in high humidity
environments. The drivers are shielded.
Dynamic SonicGuard™ minimizes distortion
at high drive levels by limiting low frequency
excursion dynamically. This maximizes clarity
at high drive levels while protecting the
drivers from damage due to overpowering.
A swivel (pan)/tilt wall-mount bracket is
included, plus eighteen M6 inserts on the back
panel fit the spacing of common third-party
mounting brackets, or can be utilized to
suspend the speaker using forged shoulder
steel eyebolts, providing installation
versatility.
CBT 100LA-1 can be installed either indoors
or outdoors. The drivers are weather-treated,
the fiberglass reinforced ABS cabinet is
excellent for outdoor applications, external
screws are stainless steel screws, and the
painted aluminum grille resists rusting in the
harshest conditions.
Available in black or white (-WH).
