Q-SYS PL-DC8, a two-way passive point source loudspeaker with directivity control with up to 520W at 8Ω, max SPL 118, 99.3dB system sensitivity and 54Hz - 20kHz (-10dB with EQ) system bandwidth.
The Q-SYS PL-DC family is composed of two-way, passive point source loudspeakers with directivity control that deliver premium sound for a broad range of venue types in entertainment, hospitality, corporate, and higher ed applications. Available in four sizes (dual-4-inch, dual-6-inch, 8-inch, and 12-inch), all the PL-DC models can act as stage fills or delays, while the smaller models can be placed under balconies to fill in lost coverage and the larger models can be part of distributed systems. Additionally, the dual-4-inch model offers a fixed 120°x50° horn while the three larger models offer a reconfigurable horn, enabling more control over where sound needs to be heard. Several available mounting options are available to ensure these loudspeakers can be placed in the right location.
All of the PL Series loudspeakers feature a weatherized enclosure (IP54 rating), making them a perfect choice for indoor or protected outdoor applications and can be part of the Q-SYS Platform including Q-SYS processing and network amplifiers.
