Jbl Professional Cbt 1000-WH Line Array Loudspeaker

Product Description

The JBL PROFESSIONAL CBT 1000-WH is an adjustable coverage line array passive loudspeaker designed for professional audio distribution in commercial and installed sound applications. The CBT 1000-WH uses column array topology to deliver controlled vertical sound dispersion, reducing ceiling and floor reflections that degrade speech intelligibility in reverberant spaces. Licensed sound contractors and AV integrators specify this unit where consistent, even coverage across a listening area is the primary design goal. Its passive design means it requires an external amplifier matched to its impedance and power handling characteristics.

This loudspeaker is suited for installed sound environments including houses of worship, lecture halls, conference rooms, transportation terminals, and retail spaces where controlled directivity is required. The adjustable coverage feature allows the installer to tune vertical dispersion angle at commissioning, accommodating varied ceiling heights and room geometries without additional hardware. It ships in white finish, making it appropriate for integration into finished interior spaces where visual discretion is a priority.

Key Features

• Adjustable vertical coverage angle for flexible dispersion tuning during installation
• Column line array topology for controlled directivity and reduced room reflections
• Passive design compatible with standard professional amplification
• White finish suited for installed sound environments with finished interiors
• Sold as a single unit (EA), appropriate for symmetric or asymmetric array configurations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style passive loudspeaker for use in professional installed sound systems requiring an external amplifier; no specific compatible amplifier models or system families were identified in the available product data.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed sound contractor or qualified AV integrator familiar with installed sound system design. Disconnect and de-energize the amplification system before making any wiring connections to the loudspeaker. Follow local building codes and manufacturer rigging guidelines when mounting the enclosure overhead or on a wall bracket. Verify amplifier impedance matching and power ratings against the loudspeaker specifications before commissioning the system.
