FBT VHA 118SND/SN

The design of the VHA118SND has produced a unique low-end module that is capable of generating extremely high levels of SPL for prolonged periods.

Using BEM finite element simulations, FBT has optimized the woofer’s load volume, while careful study of the grille and the assembly’s protective fabric have minimized acoustic impedance for a net improvement in performance, compared to previous models. The VHA118SND extends the overall system frequency response to 30Hz, while supporting fully ground-stacked configurations, courtesy of a special integrated mounting hardware. 

The summit of the entire project is the 800+400W RMS amplification module with TCP/IP network interface. Based on the OCA ALLIANCE AES70 standard, the new HORIZON family receives 24-bit 48-96Khz digital audio streaming from all devices compatible with the DANTE standard and communicates with the INFINITO System Management Suite remote control software. The module is contained in an aluminium chassis with intelligent forced ventilation and is equipped with an OLED display with encoder for parameter setting and a high-brightness blue front LEDallows remote identification of the device, also in daylight. Fully developed in house by the FBT R&D team, INFINITO is the revolution that enhances the user experience, reaching new heights in terms of performance and simplicity.
