Turbosound iQ-8 - 8" Active 2500W Speaker

Overview:

The Turbosound iQ-8 8" 2500W Active Speaker delivers powerful sound from a compact, lightweight enclosure. Its 8-inch low-frequency driver and 1-inch compression driver provide detailed full-range reproduction. Built-in Klark Teknik DSP, speaker modeling, and Spatial Contour Control help tailor the sound. ULTRANET networking, flexible connections, and multiple mounting options make the iQ-8 suitable for portable and fixed installations.

Key Features:

•    2,500-Watt Class-D Amplifier: Provides high-output performance in a compact enclosure for            portable and installed sound applications.
•    Klark Teknik DSP: Dynamic EQ and transparent limiting help maintain clear, controlled audio at          higher output levels.
•    Advanced Speaker Modeling: Simulates industry-standard loudspeakers, giving users greater          flexibility when shaping the sound.
•    Spatial Contour Control: Adjusts frequency response according to placement for more                          consistent sound across different installations.
•    ULTRANET Digital Networking: Transfers audio and control data through CAT5 cables for                      streamlined system connections.
•    Flexible User Controls: The LCD display, gain controls, and rotary encoder provide convenient          access to DSP settings.
•    Durable Installation Design: The composite enclosure, steel grille, rigging points, and dual-                angle pole mount support varied setups.
