QSC is pleased to introduce L Class ; the next generation of advanced , intelligent , active loudspeakers for applications ranging from simple , portable , plug-andplay setups , to demanding , networked , high-tech AV productions and fixed installations .
The remarkable result of a deep understanding of customer needs and application requirements , L Class delivers its exceptional performance and extraordinary audio experience via high-output amplification , stateof-the-art DSP , premium components , extensive system intelligence and an elegantly intuitive user interface . L Class also sets a new standard for ease of use , as its users will be able to confidently configure and deploy any L Class system with unmatched speed and reliability . Onboard Dante ® connects L Class to networked AV systems and connected stages .
Meticulously developed with sound quality and expandability in mind , the new LA108 ( two-way , 8 inch ) and LA112 ( two-way , 12 inch ) active line array loudspeakers are complemented by the LS118 ( single 18 inch ) active subwoofer , each offering a brilliant combination of leading-edge innovation and ease of use .
Technical innovations abound in the LA108 and LA112 , including the proprietary QSC LEAF™ ( Length- Equalized Acoustic Flare ) waveguide , the ergonomically designed , single operator QSC RapidDeploy™ rigging system , and QSC AWARE™ ( Automatic Wireless Array Recognition ) system intelligence , which also provides one-button single box or full array intelligence and optimization .
The LS118 active subwoofer ’ s on-board DSP further 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 . All models feature QSC
Acoustic Linear Phase ( ALP ) design , allowing cohesive phase response when deployed with other QSC loudspeakers in a given environment .
Both line array loudspeakers can be deployed using dedicated array frames , ground-stacked ( array frame combined with optional sub-stack adapter ) or mounted in one of two pole cups using loudspeaker stands or poles of various lengths . The LS118 can be deployed in both horizontal and vertical orientations in a ground-stack configuration or using one of its two pole receptacles .
All three models feature daisy-chain connections for analog and digital audio as well as AC power ( PowerCON TRUE1 ) and are backed by an industry-best global Six-Year Extended Warranty , with product registration .
The QSC SysNav™ ( System Navigator ) App for Windows and iPadOS further enhances the L Class user experience , providing the ability to easily design , configure , control , monitor and apply signal processing to individual loudspeakers , full arrays or groupings of both . Additionally , the AIM ( Array Installation Modeling ) prediction tool lets the user visualize array coverage by positioning virtual loudspeakers and arrays in a scaled , graphical model of a venue or installation space .
“ The innovations found in L Class are truly astonishing in their capacity to equip users at every level of experience with the capability to achieve superior sonic performance quickly and easily ,” states David Angress , General Manager , QSC Pro Audio . “ The ability to bring this quality of product to market and make it accessible to a wide range of customers is remarkable , and if the early reviews from key customers are any indication , L Class is destined to be another runaway success for QSC and our channel partners everywhere .”
“ Simply Brilliant ” in every regard , L Class products elevate audio technology in the service of art , creativity and live performance .
