QSC has announced the addition of column surface-mount loudspeakers to its AcousticDesign (AD) Series. This premium line extension, which will debut at InfoComm 2017, are designed for a wide variety of foreground and background applications and solves reverberant issues in high-ceiling spaces.

The new AD-S802T has eight 2.5” vertically oriented drivers while the AD-S162T has sixteen 2.5” vertically oriented drivers; both are high quality, 70/100V or 8 ohm bypass, full-range systems. They come equipped with a unique pan/tilt mounting system that offers multiple positioning locations, allowing the loudspeaker to remain close to the wall while offering the flexibility to deliver up to a -20° downward tilt. This makes installation even easier and reduces “live load” labor time while on the ladder.

As part of the AcousticDesign Series, the new column surface-mount loudspeakers share a similar sleek unobtrusive design with the rest of the line, which allows them to blend with the aesthetics of any room. In addition, they exhibit the same robust environmental qualities associated with all AcousticDesign surface-mount models making them ideal for indoor and outdoor usage.

Here are the details.
