QSC Pro Audio LA108

QSC LA108 is an active two-way line array speaker with a 1300W Class D amplifier, providing 1000W peak for lows and 300W peak for highs, a frequency response of (-6dB) 62Hz – 20kHz, and a 134dBSPL peak. The speaker features an 8-inch neodymium cone and two 1.75-inch compression tweeters. On the rear, there is a 2.4-inch 240x320 pixel RUI display for configuration, an XLR connector for line input, an XLR for Analog Thru, 2 (in/thru) RJ45 EtherCON connectors for Dante and QSC SysNav networks, and PowerCON TRUE1 (in/out) connectors.
The QSC LA108 is a next-generation active line array speaker that brilliantly combines innovation, refined engineering, and unprecedented ease of use. Offering extraordinary audio experiences and exceptional performance through system intelligence and premium components, the QSC LA108 is the result of a deep understanding of customer needs and application requirements. The LA108 is easy to set up and install in simple, plug-and-play configurations, or for major and demanding AV productions, in Dante networks, and also for fixed installations.
LET'S LOOK AT ITS MAIN FEATURES
Specially designed lightweight 8-inch (203mm) neodymium woofer and dual 1.75-inch (44mm) compression tweeters, delivering a high and distortion-free maximum SPL peak of 136 dB.
Energy-efficient Class D amplifier module, 1300 W peak power, with power factor correction and extremely low AC consumption.
Network solution includes digital audio-over-IP (Dante®) for interoperability with other audio equipment and seamless control and monitoring integration into the Q-SYS ecosystem via Q-SYS inventory extensions.
Industry-leading 6-year global extended warranty with product registration.
Various installation and suspension mounting solutions for extended throw facilitated by QSC's RapidDeploy technology.
For suspension mounting, up to six units can be joined on an array frame; if stacked and ground-installed, up to four LA108s can be mounted on a single subwoofer or three on a stand. QSC's intuitive RapidDeploy™ rigging technology, easy to assemble even for a single operator, ensures quick installation in any situation. QSC's patented LEAF™ (Length-Equalized Acoustic Flare) waveguide provides defined and uniform coverage (100° H x 15° V) and exceptional throw. The Acoustic Linear Phase (ALP) design, on the other hand, provides complementary coherence between QSC speakers distributed in the same audio system, offering a uniform listening experience throughout the designated area.
Control and configuration facilitated by the QSC SysNav app and QSC AWARE
The integrated QSC AWARE™ (Automatic Wireless Array Recognition) system communicates essential configuration information to the user via the rear user interface (RUI) of any speaker or via the QSC System Navigator™ app. The QSC SysNav™ (System Navigator) app also allows the user to design, configure, control, monitor, and apply signal processing to individual speakers, full arrays, or groupings of both. The AIM (Array Installation Modeling) prediction tool allows the user to visualize array coverage by placing virtual speakers and arrays in a scaled graphical model of a venue or installation space.
