FBT Install CLA 112S W

A Vertus reference dedicated to installation, made in Italy

The FBT Install CLA 112S White fits within the philosophy of the Vertus series: offering speakers and subwoofers capable of delivering solid and controlled sound reproduction while meeting the integration and durability requirements specific to fixed installations. Its Italian manufacturing, solid aluminum chassis, and compact format make it a coherent choice for projects where reliability, longevity, and aesthetic consistency are paramount.

Intended uses and environments

This subwoofer is aimed at integrators, operators, and technical service providers seeking bass reinforcement in spaces such as restaurants, hotels, lobbies, terraces, event areas, places of worship, or multi-zone installations. Its omnidirectional dispersion facilitates achieving a homogeneous bass foundation, while its IP55 rating makes it suitable for installations exposed to dust or moisture (depending on site conditions and adherence to proper installation practices).

Acoustic design and implementation: power, filtering, and connectivity

A 12-inch driver for a solid foundation

The CLA 112S features a 12-inch (305 mm) driver with a 4-inch (76 mm) voice coil, designed to handle high levels while maintaining definition in the low-frequency range. The frequency response starting from 28 Hz depends on the external crossover, allowing fine adjustment of the curve and crossover point according to the tops used and the room acoustics.

Recommended amplifier and filtering

As a passive subwoofer, its performance directly depends on amplification and processing. FBT recommends a 600 W rms amplifier and a high-pass filter at 90 Hz with a 24 dB per octave slope. This setting aims to optimize impact, limit unnecessary stress, and ensure a clean transition with the rest of the system while controlling dynamics at higher levels.

IP67 connectivity and clean integration for installation

To secure connections in demanding environments, the subwoofer is equipped with Euroblock Amphenol IP67 connectors. This approach is suited for fixed installations and structured cable runs, enhancing connection reliability under operational constraints. With dimensions of 400 x 400 x 400 mm and a weight of 24 kg, it integrates more easily into spaces where size and aesthetics are critical, notably thanks to its white color.
