Compact Powered Loudspeakers
High performance, superior quality and lasting reliability. These are the hallmarks of the QSC
brand and the reason why millions of professionals the world-over have come to trust QSC
to help them confidently deliver superior experiences and memorable performances. The
CP Series follows in that same tradition while also offering an ultra-compact form factor and
class-leading value.
The first thing you will notice about the CP Series is its compact design - every line, angle
and curve working harmoniously to present a stylish, yet rugged, appearance. Inside, CP
is equipped with a highly-efficient, 1000-watt power amplifier, matching transducers and
advanced DSP, delivering performance beyond expectations for a loudspeaker of this size.
Because of its compact size, CP is remarkably lightweight, making it easy to load, carry, lift
and deploy in a wide range of portable and installed applications. Entertainers of all kinds,
as well as educators, institutions and houses of worship will appreciate the ability to mix
up to three input sources (mic/line, line and music playback device) at once, making CP a
great single-box PA system that sets up in seconds. As part of a larger system, CP can be
deployed on a speaker pole, used as a floor monitor or as a musical instrument amplifier.
System integrators will especially appreciate CP’s lightweight and compact form factor
when attaching it to a wall or truss (via optional yoke mount). And all users will enjoy
one-touch DSP control with preset contours for the most common audio applications.
The CP Series compact, powered loudspeaker is protected by a global 3-year warranty.*
