QSC CP8 8-Inch Compact 1000W Powered Speaker

Overview

High performance, superior quality and lasting reliability. These are the hallmarks of the QSC brand and the reason why millions of professionals the world-over have come to trust QSC to help them confidently deliver superior experiences and memorable performances. The CP Series follows in that same tradition while also offering an ultra-compact form factor and class-leading value.

Amplifier and DSP

The 1000 Watt (peak) power module delivers ample burst and continuous power for the loudspeaker’s matching transducers. Convection cooling provides heat dissipation, even in extreme climates, while contributing no additional background noise. Carefully tailored, subtle and sophisticated dynamics processing is used to protect the drivers from damage and the performance from distortion. The result is a highly accurate and musical sound that maintains full signal integrity, even when pushed to high SPL.

Compact and Light Weight

CP produces a big sound from a small package. Ultra-compact and remarkably light weight, CP is easy to load, carry, lift and deploy in a wide range of portable and installed applications.

Flexible Design

CP presents a compact, unobtrusive and stylish appearance that looks great in a wide range of applications. Both models can be utilized as either main PA (with included pole mount), floor monitor or installed via optional quick-connect yoke mount.
