The system brings the typical clear, dynamic and ultra-low distortion Alcons signature sound of the larger systems in a very small and unobtrusive package, for both portable and permanent applications.

The VR5 consists of the RBN202 pro-ribbon driver for HF and a dedicated-designed 5” mid-bass with Active Coil™ for extremely low-distortion LF reproduction. The VR5 HF section has a 500 W peak power input, enabling a 1:16 dynamic range with up to 90% less distortion from 1 kHz to beyond 20 kHz.

The patented (90-degrees) horizontal and
(60-degrees) vertical dispersion of the revolvable waveguide, offers a wide and consistent coverage up to the highest frequencies; Very important for the imaging in stereo or immersive systems.

Due to the “compression-less” principle of the pro-ribbon transducer technology, the system has a fully linear response at any SPL, for an intuitive 1:1 performance.

For full system performance, the VR5 needs to be driven by an ALC controller-amplifier, delivering maximum sound quality with increased headroom and utmost operation reliability and flexibility.

The Signal Integrity Sensing™ pre-wiring ensures complete cable/connector compensation between the VR5 and ALC, significantly increasing response accuracy, regardless of cable length and system impedance, with tight and accurate mid and bass response as result.

The combination of the asymmetric multi-angle enclosure, the revolvable waveguide and the ACO™ color option provides for inconspicuous low profile stage, stand, wall or ceiling positioning. The 5 M10 mounting points enable swivel bracket, shoulder eye bolt and mic stand deployment.

Typical (short to medium throw) applications for the VR5 range from reference monitor, low-profile stage-lip/front-fill, stage monitor, under-balcony system up to a nearfield main PA system, in combination with a separate subwoofer. The BF121 subwoofer is a perfect companion for the VR5 monitor as super-compact PA system; It packs the same punch and accuracy as its bigger brothers BF151 and BF181 compact subwoofers.

The VR8 HF section features the RBN401 pro-ribbon driver with an 800 W peak power input, enabling a 1:16 dynamic range with up to 90% less distortion from 1 kHz to beyond 20 kHz.

The RBN401 is mounted on a “revolvable” 90° x 40° wave-guide and projects with “Real-90” horizontal dispersion up to 20.000Hz.

Due to the “compression-less” principle of the pro-ribbon transducer technology, the system has a fully linear response at any SPL, for an intuitive 1:1 performance.

The low-end is taken care of by an 8” mid-bass transducer, with 2” voice-coil motor structure and treated cone, combining a wide frequency range, superb accuracy with low power compression.

For full system performance, the VR8 needs to be driven by an ALC controller-amplifier, delivering maximum sound quality with increased headroom and utmost operation reliability and flexibility.

Typical (short to medium throw) applications for the VR8 range from full-range PA, stage monitor, under-balcony system up to a compact main PA system, in combination with a separate subwoofer.

The VR8 is also available in mirrored version as VR8M (mirrored asymmetric cabinet and baffle configuration), for symmetrical monitor pairing.

The VR12/60’s HF section contains the RBN601 with a 1000 W peak power input, enabling a 1:16 dynamic range with up to 90% less distortion from 1 kHz to beyond 20 kHz. It is mounted on a “non-revolvable” 60° x 30° wave-guide and projects with patented constant (horizontal) directivity up to 20.000Hz.

Due to the “compression-less” principle of the pro-ribbon transducer technology, the system has a fully linear response at any SPL, for an intuitive 1:1 performance.

The accompanying 12” features a Neodymium 3” voice-coil motor structure, combining a wide frequency range and high output with low power compression and a lighter weight.

For full system performance, the VR12 needs to be driven by an ALC controller-amplifier, delivering maximum sound quality with increased headroom and utmost operation reliability and flexibility.

The Signal Integrity Sensing™ pre-wiring ensures complete cable/connector compensation between the VR12 and ALC, significantly increasing response accuracy, regardless of cable length and system impedance, with tight and accurate mid and bass response as result.

The asymmetrical enclosure design provides for very flexible mounting (ceiling, wall) and usage.

Typical applications for the VR12 include main system for theatre, A/V, PA applications, as well as high power stage monitoring. In applications where extended bass response is required, the VR12 can be combined with a pressure-bass or deep-sub system.

The VR12 is available with a 90° x 40° (VR12/90) or 60° x 30° (VR12/60) dispersion pattern; Both models come in standard version or “i” installation version, without handle, stand mount and tilt-point. Also, both models are available as “M” version, with mirrored asymmetric cabinet and baffle configuration, for symmetrical monitor pairing.
