Weather-Resistant Line Array Speaker For Outdoor And Indoor Installations
The Yamaha VXL1W-16-WR is a slim-profile, high-output line array loudspeaker designed to deliver professional-quality sound in both indoor and outdoor environments. With an IP55 weather-resistant rating, this white-finished model is perfect for theme parks, sports facilities, event spaces, and other installations where durability and style are equally important. It combines a clean, modern look with powerful, even coverage to meet the demands of challenging acoustic environments.
Rugged Construction For Reliable Performance
Equipped with 16 waterproofed 1.5-inch full-range drivers, the VXL1W-16-WR provides consistent, high-quality audio while withstanding exposure to dust, rain, and other environmental elements. The weather-sealed housing is finished in white for a refined appearance and treated with protective coatings to prevent corrosion, making it a dependable choice for long-term use in exposed locations.
Slim And Stylish Design For Discreet Integration
At just 54 mm wide, the VXL1W-16-WR offers an unobtrusive presence that blends easily with a variety of architectural styles. Its slim profile allows for installation in tight spaces without sacrificing performance, while the line array configuration ensures focused sound projection with reduced vertical dispersion for greater speech clarity and music detail.
Flexible Mounting And Positioning Options
The VXL1W-16-WR is compatible with Yamaha’s PWMB-L1-WR stainless steel outdoor mounting bracket, which offers up to 180° horizontal rotation and up to 10° vertical tilt for the 16-driver model. This allows installers to aim the speaker precisely for optimal coverage, whether mounted as a standalone unit or in a multi-speaker configuration.
Adjustable Vertical Coverage For Custom Sound Control
A rear-panel switch allows users to choose between two vertical dispersion patterns to suit the installation environment. In Normal mode, the vertical coverage is 17° (8.5° up and down), while Wide mode expands to 22° (11° up and down). This flexibility helps ensure optimal sound distribution for audiences in both close and distant seating areas.
Wide Horizontal Coverage With High Power Handling
With a 170° horizontal coverage pattern and a frequency response from 128 Hz to 18 kHz, the VXL1W-16-WR ensures balanced sound across large areas. It handles up to 160 watts of program power at 12 ohms, making it suitable for venues where both volume and clarity are critical.
Versatile Applications For Professional Audio Installations
Whether installed in open-air entertainment venues, worship spaces, conference halls, or multipurpose auditoriums, the VXL1W-16-WR delivers consistent, high-performance sound. Its combination of weather resistance, compact design, and versatile mounting options makes it an adaptable choice for a wide range of professional sound applications.
