FBT CS1000 Vertus System (White)

Created as a no-compromise choice for both live performers and installers, the VERTUS CS1000 compact line array combines maximum performance with a modular, scalable approach. Its lightweight but sturdy construction blended with FBT’s distinctive engineering and elegance has delivered a system that can be deployed on stage within minutes, or discreetly integrated into the most delicate of decors to provide high-quality sound and controlled directivity.

A bi-amplified design, the system comprises a long excursion 12” bass reflex subwoofer and a passive mounted satellite, linked via a Neutrik Speakon connector and equipped with six full-range neodymium 3” drivers. Onboard the subwoofer is a Class-D, two-channel amplifier, complete with switch-mode power supply, delivering 600W RMS to the subwoofer and 400W RMS to the satellite, both of which are housed in birch plywood enclosures. For ease of use, a storage compartment is provided within the subwoofer enclosure to securely house both the satellite speaker and its supplied mounting pole for storage and transport. A dedicated locking system holds all of the equipment in place.

2-way speaker system
Subwoofer with a custom 12” (320mm) long excursion speaker with a 2.5” (64mm) voice coil
6 x full-range, 3” (70mm) neodymium high-efficiency custom woofers with 0.75” (20mm) voice coils
A frequency response of 40Hz to 20KHz
Onboard Class-D, switch-mode amplifier delivering 600Wrms + 400Wrms for LF and HF respectively
Built-in DSP with eight presets to suit every application
Variable volume between -4.5 / + 5 dB in 8 steps
Control Panel with master volume, presets, satellite volume, HPF, and LED status
Input and link via XLR and Neutrik Speakon for satellite connection
Dispersion 110 ° (H) x 30 ° (V)
Modular design allowing two systems to be configured as one single solution via optional accessories
Bass reflex stackable subwoofer in a birch plywood enclosure with diecast aluminium handle and rubber inserts, plus M20 support and a custom pole-mount solution facilitating adjustable height and vertical aiming
The satellite and pole are fully integrated into the subwoofer cabinet, where a push button system locks the satellite in place for transportation
The satellite is equipped with a coupling system for accessories which allow the extension of the length of the line array, positioning one atop the other. Alternatively, the same system allows the satellite to be permanently wall-mounted.
Ideal for both live applications and fixed installations
Easily expandable to a total power of 8.000W peak (via a stereo system consisting of 4 x VERTUS CS1000, positioned two per side)
