DB Technologies Vio L1610 - 1600W 2 x 10-inch Powered 3-Way Line Array Loudspeaker with 100-Degree Horizontal Coverage in Black Finish

The dB Technologies Vio L1610 is an advanced 1600W dual 10-inch powered 3-way line array loudspeaker, designed to offer astonishing sound pressure levels in a compact, versatile format. As part of the Vio series, the L1610 integrates cutting-edge technology with a state-of-the-art symmetric acoustic design, delivering consistent, high-quality sound for touring and installation applications alike. The Vio L1610 features a coaxial neodymium midrange and high-frequency driver combination mounted on an exclusive waveguide, which ensures precise transient response and excellent off-axis performance. This innovative design, along with the direct radiation of the low-frequency woofers, guarantees a detailed and homogenous audio performance with extended low-end reproduction.

The Vio L1610 is equipped with two 10-inch neodymium woofers, each with a 2.5-inch voice coil, offering powerful low-frequency performance. The coaxial midrange/high-frequency driver consists of a 4-inch midrange voice coil and a 2.5-inch high-frequency compression driver, delivering pristine clarity across the mid and high ranges. With a maximum SPL of 141 dB and a usable bandwidth of 56Hz to 20kHz, the Vio L1610 provides exceptional audio coverage and dynamic range for medium to large venues. The system's 100° horizontal dispersion ensures even sound distribution, making it ideal for large-scale concerts, festivals, and professional sound installations.

The Vio L1610 features a powerful 1600W RMS Class-D amplifier module with Digipro G4 technology, ensuring efficient power delivery and advanced signal processing. The amplifier incorporates a full-range SMPS with power factor correction (PFC), making it capable of operating with high efficiency across a range of voltages. Additionally, the amplifier features passive convection cooling with an internal fan to maintain optimal performance during extended operation. The onboard DSP offers 32-bit/96kHz audio processing with advanced linear phase FIR filters, ensuring phase-coherent sound across the frequency spectrum. The system includes dual active peak, RMS, and thermal limiters to protect the drivers from damage during high-output scenarios.

The Vio L1610's control interface is designed for ease of use and maximum configurability. Users can adjust speaker coupling through seven preset options, select high-pass filters with eight preset settings, and make high-frequency compensation adjustments as needed. The system also features an onboard test function for real-time impedance testing, ensuring optimal performance during setup. An expansion card slot allows for integration with optional network and digital audio systems, including Dante and RDNet, providing remote monitoring and control via dBTechnologies' Aurora Net software. The NFC and front LED identification system enables quick setup and identification in complex systems, while opto-isolated preamps and an intelligent power-on sequence further enhance operational safety and reliability.

Built for the rigors of touring and installations, the Vio L1610 is housed in a robust multiplex plywood enclosure with a durable polyurea finish, designed to withstand the toughest environments. The system includes integrated 3-point rigging hardware for easy setup in vertical line array configurations, while the magnetic rubber rain cover protects the electronics during outdoor use. The speaker also features two handles on the back and one on the side for easy transport and handling. With a compact footprint and lightweight design (31.3 kg / 69 lbs), the Vio L1610 is an exceptional choice for professionals looking for a high-performance, scalable sound solution.
