The FBT Ventis 108A is a 2-way active bass reflex design speaker. It features a powerful combination of B&C compression drivers and FBT’s own custom, long excursion woofers. It also has a fully rotatable constant directivity horn that ensures accurate coverage.
The rugged birch plywood enclosure is just as suitable for fixed installation as it is for use on the stage. M10 points are included as standard while an optional U-bracket can be used for wall-mounting. For touring, it has aluminum handles with rubber inserts, a 35mm polemount socket, and a 45° sloped profile for unobtrusive placement on-stage as a monitor.
Power comes from a specially designed, Italian made switching mode amplifier module. Low frequencies are driven by a highly efficient 700W RMS (full bridge) Class-D topology, operating with extremely low THD. For the HF stage, a 200W RMS performance is delivered via a meticulously crafted Class-H/AB design.
The on-board DSP is both user friendly and powerful. Located on the rear, a menu-driven system is navigated via a single rotary control with push-to-select functionality. A total of 6 factory presets are available, plus 2 additional slots for custom presets, using 5 parametric equalizers per slot. Also available is a high-pass filter, a mic/line selector, low, mid and high tone settings and an optional delay of between 0 and 3.5 meters. Finally, users can choose between two limiter modes, MAX-SPL or MAX-QUALITY, to best suit their performance.
