JBL Cbt 1000 Hi-output 2-WAY Line Array Column Spk W Adjustable Covera

JBL CBT 1000 Hi-Output 2-Way Line Array Column Speaker with Adjustable Coverage

The JBL CBT 1000 is a professional-grade line array column speaker engineered to deliver consistent, controlled sound across complex spaces. Its tall, narrow footprint maximizes output while minimizing floor and mounting footprint, and sixteen independent coverage patterns enable precise acoustic tailoring without external DSP processing—ideal for tracking, live monitoring, and installation work in varied studio and performance environments.

Design & Build Quality

Constructed from fiberglass-reinforced ABS cabinet with a powder-coated 1050 aluminum grille, the CBT 1000 withstands the rigors of studio sessions and location recording. The included two-part swivel/tilt wall bracket offers ±45 degree left-right swivel and ±15 degree tilt adjustment, enabling rapid repositioning for different recording scenarios and room acoustics without additional mounting gear.

Audio Performance & Coverage Flexibility

The speaker combines 24 soft-dome tweeters (25 mm) with six 165 mm high-excursion woofers to deliver a 45 Hz–20 kHz frequency response with sensitivity ranging from 95 dB to 102 dB depending on coverage pattern and voicing selection. The sixteen different coverage combinations—comprising four "Pattern Up" and four "Pattern Down" angles—provide surgical control over acoustic coverage patterns, allowing you to shape how sound projects into the room for accurate mixing, critical listening, or live playback during sessions.
