JBL VTX A12 Dual 12-Inch Line Array Loudspeaker
The JBL VTX A12 is a professional 3-way line array loudspeaker developed for mid-to-large touring sound systems and high-end fixed installations. Designed as part of JBL Professional's VTX A-Series, the A12 combines high acoustic output, controlled coverage, advanced transducer technology and an integrated professional rigging system.
With a maximum peak output of 146 dB, 90° nominal horizontal coverage and a frequency range extending from 46 Hz to 19 kHz, the VTX A12 is designed for demanding professional sound reinforcement applications.
3-Way High-Performance Design
Each VTX A12 incorporates a sophisticated three-way transducer configuration consisting of:
-
2 × 12-inch JBL 2264H Differential Drive® low-frequency woofers
-
4 × 5.5-inch JBL 2165H Differential Drive® mid-frequency drivers
-
3 × 2-inch JBL 2423K annular diaphragm high-frequency compression drivers
This architecture provides high output while maintaining clarity and consistency across the operating frequency range.
90° Controlled Horizontal Coverage
The VTX A12 provides 90-degree nominal horizontal coverage from 250 Hz to 18 kHz.
JBL's Radiation Boundary Integrator® and advanced high-frequency waveguide technologies are engineered to provide consistent coverage and reduce unwanted diffraction while maintaining high sensitivity at demanding output levels.
146 dB Maximum Peak Output
With maximum peak output reaching 146 dB, the VTX A12 is designed for professional applications requiring substantial sound pressure levels and long-throw performance.
This makes it particularly suitable for concert venues, arenas, auditoriums, large event spaces and touring productions.
JBL Differential Drive Technology
The low-frequency section uses two JBL 2264H 12-inch neodymium Differential Drive® woofers featuring dual voice-coil and dual-magnet architecture.
Four 5.5-inch Differential Drive® drivers handle the mid-frequency section, while three JBL 2423K compression drivers reproduce high frequencies.
Professional Rigging System
The VTX A12 features JBL's professional suspension system with captive suspension plates, quick-release pins and an auto-locking mechanism for configuring inter-enclosure angles.
Available angles include:
0.25°, 0.5°, 1°, 1.5°, 2°, 2.5°, 3°, 4°, 6°, 8° and 10°.
This allows system designers and rental companies to configure line arrays according to venue geometry and required audience coverage.
Built for Touring and Fixed Installation
The enclosure is manufactured from Finnish birch plywood and finished with JBL's black DuraFlex™ protective finish.
A full-face steel grille protects the transducers, while integrated handles simplify transportation and handling during professional touring and event deployments.
Crown I-Tech HD Amplification
The VTX A12 is designed for integration with Crown I-Tech HD amplification and JBL system processing, providing a complete professional sound reinforcement ecosystem.
The system requires four amplifier channels arranged as:
LF | LF | MF | HF
