The TRx3900F Column Array is a high-output, passive sound reinforcement loudspeaker designed for all genres of music and venues, ranging from small to large events.

The tour-grade enclosure features multi-ply hardwood for the integrity of the cabinet while the DuraTec finish, a polyurethane outer skin, provides UV and moisture protection.
