OFFLINE Samson Resound VX8.1 Portable Column Array System

Full Description

Flexible sound coverage for any audience

The VX8.1’s column array system offers a unique design with adjustable coverage options. Arrange the eight 3.5" drivers for 120° or expand to 200° by rotating the segments. This ensures clear, even sound for small gatherings or wider audiences, complemented by the deep bass from its 12" subwoofer, capable of hitting lows as deep as 40 Hz.

Effortless connectivity and mixing

Designed for versatile audio setups, the VX8.1 includes a 3-channel mixer with inputs for microphones, instruments, and line devices. Bluetooth connectivity makes streaming tracks from mobile devices simple, while DSP presets optimise sound for music, live performances, speeches, or DJ sets. A Thru output even lets you connect an additional unit to expand your sound system further.

Built for life on the road

The VX8.1 is crafted from solid plywood with a textured finish and steel grille, offering robust protection for regular gigs. The interlocking column array eliminates the hassle of loose cables or stands, ensuring a quick setup every time. Side carry handles and an included shoulder bag make transporting the system comfortable and convenient.

Powerful sound, compact design

Despite its impressive 700W output, the VX8.1 remains compact and portable, weighing just 67 lbs. With its lightweight Class D amplifier and temperature-controlled fan, it stays cool and efficient even during demanding performances.
