Designed to work in conjunction with JBL VerTec, VRX, and AE series loudspeakers, the system's modular design is highly scalable and is designed to meet the needs of both small and large sound systems.
"We purchased 26 of the Crown VRACKs and replaced all Crown 5000 and 9000 amplifiers that were driving our JBL VerTec," explained Jim Straw, CEO at JPJ Audio. "It gives us a new, lightweight packaged amplifier solution as well as access to the new JBL V5 VerTec presets. It was the way other companies around the world were heading and so we decided to push the VerTec forward again and change the amplifiers. The decision to purchase was driven primarily by the presets."
As soon as JPJ Audio's VRACK's arrived they were put to work on the Lenny Kravitz Black & White tour mixed by Laurie Quigley.
The PA system consisted of JBL Vertec; 12 deep on the mains and nine deep on the sides with 12 subs a side and eight subs in the centre. The JBL VerTec was driven by twelve VRACKs, six a side situated behind the subs on side left and stage right.
