Frequently asked questions
Can I use these products together?
No. The AC195 is a standalone speaker not designed for line-array suspension. The VRX-AF only suspends JBL VRX932LA-1/P and VRX918S/P enclosures, not the AC195.
Which is right for a small venue?
The AC195 is designed for venue coverage with its compact form factor, 118 dB max SPL, and flexible mounting options. The VRX-AF requires you to already own compatible large-format speakers and is meant for complex suspended arrays.
What is the AC195 best suited for?
The AC195 excels in live sound reinforcement, fixed installations, monitor applications, and touring scenarios where a compact yet powerful two-way system is needed. It is not recommended for home listening or studio mastering.
What speakers does the VRX-AF support?
The VRX-AF suspends only JBL VRX932LA-1/P and VRX918S/P enclosures in single or mixed-array configurations, with a maximum working load of 520 lb at 10:1 design factor.
