QSC KW122 1000 Watt 12 Inch 2-Way Powered Speaker

You Won't Believe How Huge This Speaker Sounds! The KW122 from QSC is a professional-quality active 2-way PA loudspeaker that can also be used as a stage monitor speaker. Ideal for music and speech applications, the lightweight and rugged birch cabinet houses a 12" woofer and a 1.75" compression tweeter to deliver crisp, natural audio with a wide frequency response. A pair of efficient Class-D amplifiers provide a combined power of 1000W for strong audio with low distortion. Directivity Matched Transition technology provides matched low and high frequency coverage across your entire listening area to eliminate "dead" and "hot" zones. The speaker offers excellent connectivity, with XLR/TRS combo inputs and line-level RCA inputs for accepting a variety of sound sources. Up to 3 audio sources can be mixed internally and sent to the outputs. Direct XLR outputs are provided for each channel, as well as a mix output for daisy-chaining. Extensive internal DSP includes Intrinsic Correction, DEEP, and GuardRail technologies to provide terrific sonic clarity and component protection for reliable operation. Onboard control options allow you to adjust EQ to perfectly match your surroundings and applications. You can also use the rear-panel Phoenix connector to connect an external potentiometer (not included) for remote gain control. The speaker has a standard 35mm pole socket with Tilt-Direct technology. This technology lets you simply turn a dial to give the speaker a 7.5�° downward tilt to maintain maximum coverage from high mounting positions. The cabinet has integrated M10 suspension points for easy installation as well as ergonomic cast-aluminum handles for easy transport.

Direct XLR outputs are provided for each channel, as well as a mix output for daisy-chainingIntrinsic Correction maps 65-75 spatially-averaged measurements to IIR and FIR filters that actively adjust time, frequency and amplitude response to a maximally flat bandpass target, for excellent performance across the entire sound fieldDEEP technology and excursion limiting allow for extended low-frequency response by actively managing low-frequency transients without degradation of the underlying signal or adjacent frequenciesGuardRail protection technology protects both the amplifier module and your performance from unnatural and destructive clippingMultiple EQ modes let you optimize the speaker's output for specific applications with the flip of a switchThe onboard LED indicator can be set to illuminate when power is on, to only illuminate when the clip limiter circuit is engaged, or to always be offThe rear-panel Phoenix connector allows you to connect an external potentiometer (not included) for remote gain control. You can even control multiple daisy-chained speakers from a single control potThe standard 35mm pole socket with Tilt-Direct technology lets you simply turn a dial to give the speaker a 7.5�° downward tilt to maintain maximum coverage and avoid reflections from high mounting positionsIntegrated M10 suspension points for easy installationErgonomic cast-aluminum handles for easy transportA locking power cable prevents accidental disconnection, while an automatic standby mode conserves energy and extends the life of the loudspeakerSpecificationsActive or Passive: ActiveFrequency Response 53Hz - 18kHz (-6dB)50Hz - 20kHz (-10dB)Amplifier: Class-D, 1000W Continuous, 2000W PeakMaximum Sound Pressure Level (SPL): 131dB, PeakNominal Sensitivity: Not Specified by ManufacturerCoverage: 75�° AxisymmetricInput Impedance XLR/TRS Channel A38 kOhms Balanced, 19 kOhms Unbalanced (0dB)10 kOhms Balanced, 5 kOhms Unbalanced (+12dB)2.66 kOhms Balanced, 1.33 kOhms Unbalanced (+24dB)660 Ohms Balanced, 330 Ohms Unbalanced (+36dB)XLR/TRS Channel B38 kOhms Balanced, 19kOhms UnbalancedRCA Channel B10 kOhmsCrossover: Not Specified by ManufacturerLow Frequency Driver: 12" Cone WooferHigh Frequency Driver: 1.75" Compression TweeterEnclosure Material: 15mm Birch Plywood, Black Textured Paint Finish, Black Powder Coated 16-Gauge Steel GrilleControls PowerGain AGain BChannel A Input Gain (0/12/24/36dB)LF Mode (Ext Sub/Norm/DEEP)HF Mode (Flat/Vocal Boost)Front LED (On/Off/Limit)Connectors 2 x XLR/TRS Mic/Line Combo Inputs1 x Stereo RCA Line Input2 x XLR Line Outputs1 x XLR Mix Output1 x Phoenix Remote Connector1 x Locking Power ConnectorIndicators PowerSignal ASignal BStandbyLimitMic (24dB and 36dB Settings)Cooling: On Demand, 50mm Variable Speed FanProtectionAmplifier: Thermal Limiting, Output Overcurrent, Overtemperature Muting, GuardRailTransducer: Thermal Limiting, Excursion LimitingPower: 100-240VAC, 50/60Hz Universal Power SupplyConsumption 100VAC, 2.3A120VAC, 2.01A230VAC, 1.13ADimensions (HxWxD): 26 x 15 x 15.4" (660 x 381 x 391mm)Weight: 49 lbs (22.2kg)
