The JBL VERTEC DP Series
is a suite of fully integrated audio systems coupling JBL's industry-leading
VERTEC loudspeaker technology to the innovative JBL DrivePack®
technology platform. It's a breakthrough in power and control for self-powered
systems. JBL's VERTEC DP Series
delivers superb audio quality and robust power, perfectly matched to the
enclosures, with comprehensive internal digital signal processing. JBL's
industry-leading VERTEC line array
systems are lightweight, powerful, and cost-effective. Designed in cooperation
with development partners Crown and dbx, JBL DrivePack® is designed to
exceed all expectations for loudspeaker performance, power handling and
audio system control. VERTEC
DP Series products, are all available with DrivePack® units pre-configured
from the JBL factory. The JBL VERTEC DP Series is available
in four versions. Standard VERTEC DP models are equipped
with the non-networked plug-and-play dbx input module. HiQnet compatible
VERTEC DP models
are equipped with optional DPAN input modules that support analog audio
with Ethernet networking for control and monitoring, DPCN input modules
that support CobraNet® digital audio
along with control and monitoring on one cable or optional DPDA input
modules that support AES®/EBU®
digital audio.
A key feature of the VERTEC DP Series is its highly adaptable JBL DrivePack® amplifier and signal processing module.
The DP-3 three channel power module provides 3000
watts of total continuous power to each full-range system.
The DP-3 power module configured for sub-woofer
provides 3400 watts (continuous) power to the loudspeaker.
The DP-2 two channel power module provides 1100
watts of total continuous power to each full-range system.
The DP-1 sub-woofer power module provides 1800
watts (continuous) power to the loudspeaker.
JBL DrivePack® operates on auto-selecting line voltages at 50 or 60 Hz for worldwide operation.
Each VERTEC DP Series enclosure is equipped with a modular input bay that accepts the standard DPAN analog audio input module, the optional DPCN CobraNet® digital audio or the DPDA AES®/EBU® digital audio input module. These input modules feature sophisticated inboard digital signal processing technology. Precision bandpass limiting, pre-equalization filters and automatic self-test functions ensure optimized performance. Network control and monitoring is enabled through a 100Mb Ethernet connection.
A variety of control and monitoring options are available at your fingertips, integrated into Harman Pro's HiQnet Audio Architect™ software. This provides complete software control of not only your JBL DrivePack®-equipped loudspeakers, but also other HiQnet-compatible audio products in the system such as JBL's Venue Performance Series, or traditional VERTEC models powered with Crown I-Tech amplifiers. In these applications, VERTEC DP Series, VP Series and VERTEC systems are fully compatible to suit project-specific system design requirements.
Equipped with the most advanced network control capabilities of any loudspeaker system available, all VP Series loudspeaker systems utilize Harman Professional's HiQnet flexible and intelligent networking protocol, providing the system operator with a complete configuration, control, and monitoring solution. HiQnet protocol provides remote access to loudspeaker preset files in the JBL DrivePack input modules, making system setup easy yet powerful, via an intuitive, user-friendly graphical interface.
