Adamson Systems Engineering unveiled the Vergence Group of loudspeakers, featuring the flagship VGt line array system and the VGs powered subwoofer. The VGt is a peak performance large-format line array loudspeaker including 8 transducers, amplification, a networked DSP endpoint and Autolock rigging in an 85-pound compact package.

The patent-pending M140 MF compression drivers introduce cutting edge technologies redefining the quality of the mid frequency range. Both the M140 and the 3” HF compression drivers are loaded to critically optimized sound chambers producing a unified wavefront. The LF section contains both direct and directional components to achieve a multi-mode low frequency dispersion pattern. VGt is designed to provide uniform 90 degree horizontal coverage across its’ entire frequency range, while outputting an impressive SPL with ultra-low distortion.

The cabinet construction uses marine grade birch plywood as well as aircraft grade aluminum and steel. Autolock rigging allows the system to be safely and easily flown by a single engineer. VGt is equipped with custom made onboard Class-D amplification, as well as an intelligent networked DSP endpoint. For efficient cabling, all necessary connections can be daisy chained, including power, analog audio and redundant network containing Milan digital audio and AES70 control data. VGt is the pinnacle of high-performance large-format loudspeaker products.

Complementing the VGt is the debut of the VGs powered subwoofer. The VGs is built upon the foundation of the E-Series E119 subwoofer combined with a custom-designed and in-house manufactured, single-channel 6kW Class-D Amplifier with on-board DSP. All features of the VGs are controlled and monitored through Adamson’s ArrayIntelligence software.

The enclosure is loaded with a light weight, long excursion, 19” SD19 Kevlar Neodymium driver utilizing Adamson’s Advanced Cone Architecture and Symmetrical Drive Technology. The driver employs a dual 5” voice coil for exceptional power handling, with a dual-spider suspension system for extra stability even under extreme excursion. It is mounted in an ultra-efficient front-loaded enclosure, designed to reproduce clean, musical low frequency information. Users will appreciate the lower fundamental notes of this design.

The cabinet construction uses marine grade birch plywood as well as aircraft grade steel and aluminum, and is equipped with custom made onboard Class-D amplification, as well as an intelligent networked DSP endpoint. For efficient cabling, all necessary connections can be daisy chained, including power, analog audio and redundant network containing Milan digital audio and AES70 control data. The integrated rigging system allows for either 0° or 3° splay between adjacent cabinets. The VGs can travel on installed casters, or on a 3-high covered dolly.
