The JBL Professional VLA-C265-BK is a compact yet powerful two-way horn-loaded line array speaker designed for permanent installation in large venues such as arenas, stadiums, and houses of worship. Engineered with JBL’s proven technology and craftsmanship, the VLA-C265 delivers exceptional audio performance with precise horizontal coverage of 65°, making it an ideal choice for applications requiring high intelligibility and consistent sound projection.

The high-frequency section features three D2415 drivers with 1.5" annular diaphragms, 1.5" voice coils, and neodymium motors, ensuring maximum sensitivity and clarity. Low frequencies are handled by dual 10" Differential Drive® woofers with 3" voice coils, providing impactful bass and robust performance. This combination results in efficient power handling and reliable output, even in demanding environments.

Built with weatherized enclosures, multi-layer reinforced fiberglass, and powder-coated 14-gauge steel grilles, the VLA-C265 is IP55-rated for protection against dust and water, ensuring long-lasting performance outdoors. Its integrated rigging system allows seamless assembly into large line array systems, with inter-box angle options for precise coverage control.

The VLA-C265 is part of JBL’s VLA Compact Series, offering system designers the flexibility to combine modules with different horizontal patterns. Whether deployed as part of a distributed cluster or in a full-scale line array, the VLA-C265 guarantees even coverage, high SPL output, and professional-grade durability.
