JBL Makes Line Array Setup Easy with New Plug’n’Play BRX300 Series

JBL’s new BRX300 Series promises to simplify line-array setup to the point where a technician is not required, while delivering professional fidelity.  The compact (by line-array standards) system is modular in functionality and includes:

• BRX308-LA Line Array Element with dual 8″ drivers and a 3″ titanium compression driver
• BRX325SP Dual 15″ Powered Subwoofer with DSP
• BRX308-ACC Transport Kit
• BRX308-AF Array Frame
• BRX308-PM Pole Mount and Adapter Kit

The BRX300 system is available now in 2 configurations: one subwoofer/two tops or one subwoofer/four tops. Mounting options include ground-stacking, pole mounting or flying, providing coverage across a range of applications.

JBL boast that built-in corrective signal processing, the smart transport system and hassle-free rigging hardware bring the power of line array technology to customers who are not trained audio engineers. A fairly wild claim considering the complexity of line-array systems until now, but if it can do everything it says on the tin, then this would make a fantastic system for hire companies or small event companies.

The BRX300 would be suitable for bands, DJs, rental firms, houses of worship and anyone who needs a compact, portable system that provides superior fidelity, high output and consistent coverage in a range of sound-reinforcement scenarios.
