Compact yet Powerful Active Subwoofer from QSC

The KSub — a member of QSC's K Series — offers impressive sound quality, high wattage, and relatively light weight in an easy to transport package. Engineered by QSC's amplifier engineer team under the direction of Pat Quilter, the KSub incorporates new Class D power modules with extensive DSP processing employed throughout. The end result is a subwoofer that defies expectations based on its size and weight. The combo XLR and 1/4" inputs can handle either mic or line-level inputs, making the KSub a great addition to your rig.

Great Purposeful Sub!

by Kahuku1 from Hawaii
September 16, 2011
Music Background: Weekend Performer
I used to gig with just mains and then I recently added the K-Sub. The difference was night & day. Hit the high-pass filters on the mains and your system actually runs louder & cleaner with less str... read more [+]ain because the K-Sub will take the "lows" burden off of the mains. The K-Sub is meant for small to medium venues when you just want to really fill the lower spectrum of your sound and not shake the dentures loose off grandpa! The K-Sub give me a tight, punchy bass and made my sound really full. So then picked up the KW 181 when I need earth-shaking bass. Now I have the beauty & the BEAST....the best of both worlds! Great Job QSC!! close [-]

Sweet Addition To Audio System

by Robert Love from San Jose, CA

Music Background: Musician, Live Sound Guy
Just finishing up a church A/V update project. Decided to add one KSub to round out the sound in the sanctuary of our small church. I dropped by to see how the contractor was doing and he says "liste... read more [+]n to this". He played a few tunes off his iPod and I could not believe the difference. The speaker placement is totally out of view on the stage but the sound seems to be coming right from the speaker cluster on the ceiling. I think more than a few parishioners will be scratching their heads trying to fiqure out how that could happen considering we are still using the same original speaker cluster! Great product QSC! close [-]

The low-end "push" from the KSub, in addition to a pair of K10's made an instant impression on my 9-piece soul band, The Real Deal, and our friends and fans. The shaking on the dance floor proved to b... read more [+]e the ultimate test and the KSub passed with flying colors. Now I'm saving my gig $$$ for another!

Our Customers Say...

My Sales Engineer knows all his products. I can call and ask him anything and he's on top of it. Some other places just want to sell you something, but I've found Sweetwater to be a helpful, professional company to work with.
