14 - VTX A8 BASE PLA TE
The VTX A8 BP Base Plate is a universal adapter frame that enables VTX A8 arrays to be ground stacked on top of compatible subwoof-
ers or support structures such as stages, scaffolding, or carts. Using the included M20 screw, the VTX A8 BP connects to any supported
subwoofer equipped with a standard M20 pole mount adapter, such as the VTX B28 or the VTX B18. The base plate attaches directly
to the bottom of an A8 array, and the rear angle selection bar allows for angles ranging from -15 to +5-degrees. When not used with
subwoofers, M10 through holes at the four corners can be used to permanently attach an A8 array to other support structures. The base
plate includes one 50 mm (2 in) through hole on each side for easy use with ratchet straps. Configurations and load conditions for using
the VTX A8 BP can be obtained using JBL's LAC-3 prediction software application.
