Know before you buy
The system is designed for high portability, as the satellite speaker, distance rod, and cables all store directly inside the subwoofer cabinet. While the total weight is 33.5 kg (73.85 lbs), this all-in-one design makes it significantly easier to transport in a single trip compared to traditional PA setups.
Yes, the fanless Class-D amplifier ensures completely silent operation, making it an excellent choice for intimate venues, acoustic performances, or corporate presentations where background fan noise would be distracting.
The system features a wide 110° horizontal dispersion pattern, which allows it to cover a broad audience area effectively. This makes it ideal for venues where you need consistent sound distribution without needing multiple speaker arrays.
The FBT Vertus CS 1000 is designed with a single input channel. If you need to connect multiple microphones or instruments, you will need to use an external mixer before sending the signal to the system.
With a frequency range starting at 40 Hz and a 600W RMS dedicated power section, the 12-inch subwoofer provides a punchy, deep low-end that is well-suited for DJs and live music applications. It balances effectively with the 400W satellite array to provide a full-range sound profile.
The system is capable of reaching a maximum SPL of 129 dB. This high output level ensures clear, distortion-free sound even in larger rooms or louder live environments.
