Incredible Active Line Array Speaker!

QSC's incredible KLA12 line array speaker combines astounding power, amazing flexibility, and road-ready dependability in a surprisingly lightweight package that sounds absolutely stunning. The KLA12 is powered by a 500W x 500W module that provides plenty of clean, clear power to the 12" LF driver and the 1.75" HF compression driver. Ar-Q frequency optimization lets you tune the KLA12 to the array; in fact, you can adjust for the number of speakers in your array and get the most out of your KLA12 (it allows for up to five enclosures). You'll also appreciate the SOLO rigging system, which allows you to set up the speaker without tools or hardware. If you choose pole mount the speaker, the onboard Tilt-Direct mount lets you position the KLA12 perfectly for any room.

QSC KLA12 Active Line Array 12" Speaker Features:
  • 500W x 500W power module
  • Rugged ABS enclosure delivers lightweight durability
  • SOLO Rigging System supports deployment without tools or external hardware
  • Ar-Q Frequency Optimization quickly tunes the array with the click of a dial, adjusting for the appropriate number of boxes
  • 12:1 design factor supports arrays of up to 5 units

  • High-power 12" low frequency driver provides extension down to 44Hz without subwoofers
  • Extensive DSP further enhances and protects performance
  • 1.75" diaphragm compression driver delivers clear and powerful high-frequency reproduction

Sweetwater ALWAYS exceeds my expectation in sales, customer service and knowledge on the gear being sold to me. Sweetwater is my #1 choice to buy equipment from the first time I ordered. I find of great value the fact that I don't feel like one more customer, rather THE customer.

This is a great product. It is very well built. Supper easy to rig. I tested two of these boxes with one kw181 in an 1200 seet room and was blown away. These boxes can hold their own. The auditor... read more [+]ium would need 4KW 181 speakers and 8 tops to have proper coverage. But I had no problem hitting 100 plus db 100ft from the speakers in the room. My favorite thing about this speaker is they don't sound harsh. My jbl prx 600 sound harsh at the same volume. Kw181 with these hits harder then my jbl srx 2 18" subs. Love the product and will be buy more for installs. close [-]
