[ATTACH=CONFIG]200553.vB5-legacyid=12402[/ATTACH]4/29/2015 Los Angeles – Professional British audio icon Turbosound today announced their highly-anticipated iQ Series networked loudspeaker product line is now shipping and will soon be available from all major resellers.
An industry first, the iQ Series combines Turbosound’s 40-year loudspeaker legacy with Klark Teknik’s award-winning networking and Digital Signal Processing (DSP) technologies to create what is referred to as “Acoustic Integration”. This innovative paradigm enables digital mixers, personal monitor systems and loudspeakers to communicate directly with each other via the Company’s proprietary ULTRANET Technology. Another first for the iQ Series is the sophisticated speaker modelling capability, which lets users call up preset frequency contours that emulate the sound of 10 of the world’s most iconic loudspeakers.
Acoustic Integration puts more control at the user’s fingertips, allowing them to make dramatic changes to overall sound system performance – in real time, without ever leaving the mixing desk. Users can easily set up and adjust built-in DSP parameters directly at the loudspeakers, or remotely via PC.
Perfect for FOH and floor-wedge applications, the iQ15, iQ12, iQ10 and iQ8 two-way loudspeakers are lightweight, portable, and provide premium-quality sound. Added support for low-frequency performance comes from the iQ18B and iQ15B subwoofers, which provide exceptionally deep and powerful bass. All enclosures feature standard 35 mm pole-mount sockets, for deploying dynamic full-range systems that are ideally suited for even the most demanding sound-reinforcement applications.
“Our design objective was advanced integration between our growing digital mixer family and this new, high-performance loudspeaker line,” said Andrew Pardoe, lead acoustic engineer for Turbosound. “The iQ Series is an industry first, thanks to the available digital audio networking via our proven ULTRANET technology.”
The iQ Series is affordable enough for small to medium-size venues, such as theaters, schools and houses of worship – yet powerful enough to easily accommodate festival stages, dance clubs and convention center corporate events.
The full range iQ8, iQ10, iQ12, iQ15, and Q15B and iQ18B subwoofers are available at an estimated U.S. street price starting at $549.99 – and are covered by a generous Three-Year Warranty Program.
