QSC has just introduced the KS118, an active subwoofer which is the newest member of the KS family, replacing the acclaimed KW181.
With its robust design, legendary QSC amplification and versatile DSP features, the KS118 is the perfect choice for mobile entertainment, AV rental, event production, clubs and performance venues for which very high output and commanding low frequency performance is needed.
Featuring a long excursion, tour-grade, 18-inch direct radiating driver powered by a 3600 Watt Class D amplifier, the KS118 delivers high sound pressure levels with dynamic and musical sound reproduction of very low frequencies.
On-board DSP optimizes and protects system performance while also offering advanced capabilities such as the ability to array two units in a cardioid arrangement, maximizing low frequency output in front while minimizing unwanted energy around the sides and rear of the system. DEEP™ mode provides additional low frequency extension and driver excursion processing.
Highly transportable, the rugged premium birch enclosure features comfortable aluminum handles and four rear-mounted low-noise casters. A top-mounted M20 threaded pole receptacle accepts a 35 mm pole for easy vertical deployment with QSC K.2 Series and other full-range loudspeaker. The high performance KS118 addresses today’s requirements for dynamic, high-energy bass content reproduction.
