Advanced power and DSP:

The 2000 W power module delivers ample burst and continuous power for the Loudspeaker's premium drivers.  It has been designed through very low noise fan cooling, enabling the enclosures to be used in settings where background noise must be kept to a minimum.  Carefully tailored, subtle and sophisticated dynamics processing is used to protect the drivers from damage and the performance from distortion.

Presets:

The user may select from an extensive list of factory preset EQ contours including live, dance, monitor, and many more.

Scenes:

Savable and recallable scenes can store information like user EQ, delay, and input configuration settings.

Inputs:

A pair of balanced combo XLR / F plus 1 / 4" TRS connectors through independent gain control are provided.  The first is equipped through selectable mic / line (microphone or line) level input while the second offers selectable HI-Z / line (high impedance or line) level input, specifically for musical instruments.  Both inputs are connected directly to a pair of XLR / M throughput connectors so that the signals may be "daisy chained" to another audio device.  A 3.5 mm TRS input jack through independent gain control is also provided for connection of sources such as smart phones, computers, and MP3 players.

Outputs:

In addition to the two throughput XLR's, a line level output through the mixed signal from all inputs is also provided.  (An optional security cover (K-LOC) may be installed to prevent unauthorized tampering of settings)

Coverage:

DMT (directivity matched transition) design matches the coverage angle of the woofer at the cross over frequency through the horn pattern to ensure uniform response across the coverage area.  Intrinsic correction techniques are also employed ensuring smooth power response from the Loudspeaker.  The result is an extremely accurate Loudspeaker that behaves well in a wide range of acoustic spaces through little or no equalization.

Flexible design:

Each model is housed in a rugged ABS enclosure through a professional yet unobtrusive appearance that is at home in any application.  Each model can be utilized in either main PA or floor monitor applications, while ergonomic handles and a heavy duty steel grille through fabric lining further enhance overall appearance and functionality.  The dual pole cups allow a 0 or 7.5° downward tilt when deployed on a pole.  This allows for more even coverage across the listening area and less problems due to rear wall reflections.  For suspended applications, integrated M 10 fittings through a single pullback are included to accommodate M 10 eyebolts.  An optional yoke mount accessory is also available for permanent installation to walls and ceilings or for temporary attachment to truss (requires 3rd party hardware).

6 year warranty:

Robust QSC reliability backed by a global 6 year warranty.
