QSC KW153 - 15" 3-Way Active Powered Loudspeaker, 1000-Watt
Inputs, Outputs and Mixing
- Combo XLR and 1/4" TRS inputs accept both mic- and line-level input while a set of RCA phono inputs (except KSub) allow additional connectivity to portable MP3 players, CD players and line-level mixers. As many as three audio sources can be mixed internally and summed to a balanced output for "daisy-chaining" of multiple units. Separate direct outputs are also provided on each channel for additional output flexibility.
DEEP
- Sophisticated digital signal processing provides greater low-frequency extension while precisely protecting the woofer from over-excursion.
DMT
- Directivity Matched Transition matches the HF coverage angle to the natural coverage angle of the woofer for uniform frequency response over the entire coverage area.
Axisymmetric Wave Guide
- The axisymmetric wave guide eliminates the phase distortions of typical asymmetric horns for more natural reproduction.
1000 Watts
- The same state-of-the-art, light-weight Class D amplifier module powers all the K and KW Series models.
EQ Modes
- Optimize for a specific application with the simple flip of a switch.
Energy Management
- Automatic standby mode conserves energy and extends the life of the loudspeaker.
LED Operation
- Switch selectable: On (power indicator) / off (dark) / limit (limiter indication)
Remote Control
- Easy-to-use remote gain control is ideal for installed applications.
Pro Appearance
- Sleek lines and a full grille for a more professional look than other molded loudspeakers.
Locking IEC Power Cable
- Help prevent unexpected interruptions.
Connectivity
- Mic/line and RCA inputs along with onboard mixing controls allow greater flexibility.
Tilt-Direct™ Pole Mount
- A simple turn of the dial is all it takes to alter the vertical directivity by 7.5 degrees.
Suspension and Mounting
- With integrated threaded inserts, KW Series is equally at home in mounted or flown applications.
Threaded Pole
- The KW181 subwoofer comes with a threaded pole for a snug, safe fit.
Intrinsic Correction
- An exclusive QSC process that applies extensive acoustic measurements to noticeably improve audio quality.
Class D
- Higher efficiency produces less heat and more sonic performance with lower overall current draw.
Protections
- QSC's Guardrail™ technology protect your loudspeakers from overexcursion. On-demand cooling fan and thermal limiting prevent overheated electronics.
