A powerful resource for the professional contractor, each VERIS model exhibits linear phase throughout the critical crossover regions and features Community's unique, uniform full-range voicing system to minimise variations in sound quality among the range of models.
Ken DeLoria, Community's product manager says: "VERIS' smooth and intelligible sonic output is the result of patent-pending carbon ring cone technology, coupled with Ferrofluid-cooled and damped MF and HF drivers. This proprietary union of technologies brings low distortion, high-impact sonic capability to a wide range of applications. And because we manufacture the drivers ourselves, we're able to meet a surprisingly affordable price-point."
Available models start with the VERIS6, a single 6" with an HF horn-driver combination in a compact enclosure. Next are a dual 6", a single 8", and a dual 8," also with attendant HF horn-drivers. These four models each ship with a yoke-style mounting bracket as an included accessory, and can be ordered with an optional low distortion, low insertion-loss 200W internal autoformer for 70V applications.
The larger 12" and 15" VERIS models offer a choice of large-format horns, all employing Community's legendary pattern control technology. Horn patterns include 90º x 60º and 60º x 40º for the two-way systems, and 90º x 40º and 60º x 40º for the three-way systems. Two elegant, low profile subwoofers, a dual-10" and a dual-12", both using Community's patented Cool-Coil heat evacuating system, offer astonishing LF performance.
"Applications for VERIS include houses of worship, conference rooms, clubs, restaurants, and many other small to mid-size venues where people gather to hear music and speech reproduced with maximum clarity and intelligibility," states Julia Lee, Community's director of sales & marketing. "It's important to us at Community that every model in the range fits a specific need. We're confident that VERIS will be a perfect fit for a large number of our contractors, both in the US and abroad."
The VERIS line includes a wide range of optional off-the-shelf rigging systems and mounting brackets, all engineered for quick, convenient, and safe installation. All models are available in black or white at no additional charge, and come equipped with a generous number of rigging points. The full-range enclosures are additionally outfitted with OmniMount compatible fasteners.
