LQ-12P Added to Crest Audio's LQ Series Enclosures
 January 17, 2002
Crest Audio is announcing the expansion of their LQ Series of injection-molded enclosures with the addition of the new LQ-12P Powered Speaker. The LQ-12P is a bi-amplified powered enclosure that is designed for a wide-variety of mobile and fixed sound reinforcement applications and features incredibly high power handling capability with the ability to maintain clarity, even at extreme power levels.
The LQ-12P is made from high impact injection-molded polypropylene in a trapezoidal shape for easy stacking or cluster formation, and features extensive ribbing and bracing. The grille utilizes perforated metal protected by a high quality vinyl coating.
The LQ-12P is a two-way system featuring a 12" cast frame woofer with a premium cast frame 4" voice coil, water-resistant treated cone, and a dust cap for superior environmental stability.
Designed for primary sound reinforcement with a dispersion pattern of 90 degrees horizontal x 45 degrees vertical, the LQ-12P is capable of reaching 130 B SPL @ 1M. High frequencies are handled by a 2" titanium diaphragm compression driver coupled to a 1" Quadratic Throat Horn that is molded to the cabinet. The frequency response of the LQ-12P is 61Hz to 18kHz +/-3dB. The LQ-12P features an internal electronic two-way crossover with CD horn EQ, level matching, active bass boost and subsonic filtering. The crossover has the horn spatially aligned with the woofer, so there is no need for phase alignment or time delay of the signals.
The LQ-12P is a trapezoidal enclosure that measures a compact 23.65" x 17.75" x 14" (front) and 22.25" x 10" x 14.3" (rear) and weighs 56 lbs. The LQ-12P also comes standard with one combo female XLR/ 1/4" phone jack and one male XLR jack, each providing balanced operation, in parallel. For easy mounting, the LQ-12P has four mounting inserts on top and four on bottom, and a built-in stand mount. The LQ-12P is available in dark gray or black.
