Applications

The K Series has been primarily designed for portable audio reinforce- ment. This includes a variety of uses in reinforcement for entertainers and presenters. The K8, K10 and K12 are all designed to perform well on their own in full-range audio. They can be used singly, in stereo pairs or in distributed or delayed systems. They perform extraordinarily well as both main reinforcement systems and as floor monitors (K10 and K12 only). (Figure 1)

The K8, K10, and K12 are all equipped with a 35 mm pole socket that allows use on a speaker stand or on a pole over a subwoofer. The pole socket features the QSC Patented Tilt-Direct™ system for tilting the enclosures down 7.5 degrees while on the pole. (Figure 2)

The K8, K10 and K12 also have features designed for various suspen- sion methods. They feature M10 threaded inserts for suspension with eyebolts. There are also yoke accessories (model numbers: K8 YOKE, K10 YOKE, K12 YOKE) for each model that can mount either to the sides of the cabinet or to the top and bottom. These yokes allow for rigid mounting to structures and rotation of the speaker system. (Figure 3)

For extra low-frequency extension and enhancement, the KSub is per- fectly matched to the rest of the K Series. The K8, K10 and K12 all have a selectable high-pass filter for use with the subwoofer. The KSub includes a fixed low-pass filter so it will accept full-range input.

The KSub has four large casters for maximum portability. The pole sock- et on the top of the enclosure is fitted with an M20 threaded insert. The included speaker pole screws into the socket for a secure fit. (Figure 4)
