{"product_id":"fbt-ventis-206a-active-speaker","title":"FBT Ventis 206A Active Speaker","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"814\" data-end=\"1383\"\u003eThe FBT Ventis 206A is a compact professional active 2 way point source loudspeaker designed for speech, music playback, live sound, installation and portable AV applications. Featuring a dual 6.5\" low frequency driver configuration with a 1\" high frequency compression driver, it delivers strong output and controlled coverage from a slim cabinet format. This makes it a practical choice for schools, houses of worship, theatres, conference rooms, AV installers, hospitality venues, front fill systems, under-balcony fill, stage monitoring and compact PA applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1385\" data-end=\"1917\"\u003eThe Ventis 206A is particularly useful where a conventional 10\" or 12\" cabinet may be too large, but a smaller loudspeaker still needs to deliver professional sound pressure levels and good vocal clarity. Its slim enclosure allows it to be used in more discreet positions, making it suitable for installations where visual impact needs to be kept low. It can also be deployed as a full-range companion to a subwoofer, providing clear midrange and high frequency performance while the subwoofer handles extended low frequency output.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1919\" data-end=\"2433\"\u003eThe driver configuration includes 2x 6.5\" low frequency woofers with 1.5\" voice coils and 1x 1\" exit throat B\u0026amp;C high frequency compression driver with a 1.4\" voice coil. This compact dual-woofer design helps the loudspeaker deliver a frequency response of 70Hz to 20kHz at -6dB, making it suitable for both speech and general music applications. FBT lists the Ventis 206A with a maximum SPL of 124dB continuous and 131dB peak, giving it impressive output for its cabinet size. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2435\" data-end=\"2999\"\u003ePower is provided by built-in bi-amplification, with 700W RMS dedicated to the low frequency section and 200W RMS for the high frequency section. This gives the speaker a total amplifier power rating of 900W RMS, with peak amplifier power listed at 1800W. The low frequency section uses Class-D amplification, while the high frequency section uses a Class-H\/AB design. This integrated amplifier platform removes the need for external amplifier matching and makes the speaker easier to deploy in portable and installed systems. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"3001\" data-end=\"3504\"\u003eThe 70° x 50° constant directivity horn is fully rotatable, allowing the coverage pattern to be adjusted to suit vertical or horizontal cabinet orientation. This is a valuable feature for AV installers and system designers, particularly when using the speaker as a front fill, under-balcony fill, delay speaker, stage monitor or wall-mounted installation loudspeaker. Controlled coverage helps keep sound focused towards the audience area and can reduce unnecessary spill in challenging acoustic spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"3506\" data-end=\"4041\"\u003eThe onboard DSP gives the Ventis 206A useful flexibility across different applications. FBT lists six pre-optimised presets, plus two additional user slots that can be configured with five parametric EQ filters per slot. This allows the speaker to be tailored for different requirements such as live sound, speech, DJ playback, monitoring or installed AV use. In practice, this makes the Ventis 206A adaptable enough to move between portable event work and fixed installation environments without needing extensive external processing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"4043\" data-end=\"4607\"\u003eConnectivity is designed for professional use while still remaining practical for general AV applications. The input panel includes an XLR\/jack combo input, XLR link output and RCA stereo input. The combo input is suitable for mixers, DSP outputs, audio interfaces and professional playback systems, while the XLR link output allows signal to be passed to another speaker. The RCA stereo input gives additional convenience for simple playback sources, making the cabinet suitable for schools, venues, fitness spaces, meeting rooms and smaller presentation systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"4609\" data-end=\"5113\"\u003eThe cabinet is constructed from 12mm birch plywood with internal bracing and a scratch-resistant finish, giving it a robust build for professional use. It includes an integrated rear handle for easier handling and a standard 35mm speaker stand socket for pole or tripod mounting. Optional wall bracket and mounting hardware support fixed installation on walls or ceilings, making the Ventis 206A suitable for both temporary and permanent sound reinforcement systems. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"5115\" data-end=\"5625\"\u003eWith dimensions of 190 x 560 x 260mm and a net weight of 12.3kg, the FBT Ventis 206A is compact, slim and easy to integrate into a wide range of AV environments. Transport dimensions are listed at 290 x 660 x 360mm, with a transport weight of 14.3kg. For customers needing a compact active loudspeaker with strong output, onboard DSP, rotatable coverage, birch plywood construction and flexible mounting options, the Ventis 206A is a highly capable solution for both installed and portable sound reinforcement.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"FBT Audio","offers":[{"title":"Black","offer_id":56657024123266,"sku":"40639","price":880.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"White","offer_id":56657024156034,"sku":"40639W","price":880.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0958\/5767\/2578\/files\/Ventis206A.png?v=1779115923","url":"https:\/\/www.theavbarn.co.uk\/products\/fbt-ventis-206a-active-speaker","provider":"The AV Barn","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
