EAW VFM159I-BLACK VFM159i Passive Two-Way Stage Monitor

The Eastern Acoustic Works VFM159i is a 2-way stage monitor loudspeaker system that includes a direct-radiating, vented, 15" low-frequency (LF) cone transducer and a 1" exit / 1.75-" voice coil high-frequency (HF) compression driver loaded with a large, square, user-rotatable 90×60 coverage pattern horn.

Thanks to the fact that VF Series full range systems (VFR/VFM) use HF sections similar to those developed for the MK Series, EAW engineers could employ the same revolutionary "beamwidth-matching" internal passive crossover/filter networks that set the MK Series apart from all other 2-way systems. If powered by an EAW-specified amplifier or via a UX Series digital signal processor, the VFM159i can enjoy the benefits of EAW Focusing, a technology that eliminates the anomalies inherent in the time domain of any loudspeaker.

A classic stage monitor design with NL4 connectors located on both sides for easy loop-through connections, the VFM159i models also includes a pole mount cup should they need to be used as small PA mains. Additionally, they feature handles that are integrated into the enclosure design, giving the low-profile enclosure a sleek, clean appearance.

It includes a 6-year manufacturer warranty.
