E112
The E112 is a trapezoidal 8Ω two-way loudspeaker using a 12-inch die cast aluminum
woofer with a 3-inch voice coil. The 15 mm, 11-ply enclosure provides enough volume to
deliver solid low-frequency extension down to 65 Hz, making it an excellent choice for
applications in which space or budget preclude the use of a subwoofer. The DMT
coverage angle of 85° is ideal for most medium and medium-long throw applications.
• High output, professional quality sound with a 400-watt continuous power rating
• E Series Entertainment System — Advanced digital signal processing tunings and
options using QSC GXD or PLD Series amplifiers or TouchMix
• Rugged tour-grade textured paint
• Foam-lined perforated steel grille
• U-style yoke and M10 rigging kit available for permanent installation
• Dual-angle pole socket
• Durable metal handles
E115
The E115 is a trapezoidal 8Ω two-way loudspeaker using a 15-inch, 500-watt, die cast aluminum
frame woofer with a 3.5-inch voice coil. It is intended for use when high power and authoritative
low end are needed from a full-range loudspeaker. A 2.8” compression driver attached to the 75°
DMT waveguide assures that even distant listeners will be well covered.

E215
The E215 is a trapezoidal 4Ω high-performance two-way loudspeaker system featuring dual
15-inch 500-watt die-cast aluminum frame woofers, each with a 3.5-inch voice coil. It uses a
frequency-shading topology across both woofers to maximize low-frequency output while
minimizing interference with the HF driver through the crossover transition. Use it when you need
hgh power and extended low end from a single full-range loudspeaker. A 2.8” compression
driver attached to the 75° DMT waveguide assures that even distant listeners will be well
covered.

E118sw
The E118sw is a 4Ω high-performance direct radiating subwoofer with a single
800-watt 18-inch aluminum frame woofer. It’s designed to produce crushing low
end for live performance with kick drum and bass in the PA or for high-level, highenergy dance music. A threaded M20 pole socket is provided for sub/satellite use
with any of the E Series two-way models. For portable applications, it includes
attachment points for four optional casters. The subwoofer’s 4-ohm impedance
means that a single subwoofer may be optimally powered by a less expensive
amplifier.

AMPLIFIERS/MIXERS
GXD Series Amplifiers
The GXD Series features two 2-channel models with built-in
E Series processing settings available. Older GXD amplifiers can
be made current by updating their firmware through the USB port
on the rear panel. The GXD Series amplifiers are ideal for
applications that use only a stereo pair of loudspeakers, with no
subwoofers.
PLD Series Amplifiers
With a range of 4-channel models, the
PLD Series are the go-to amplifiers for
systems that include subwoofers or
multiple channels of loudspeakers and
stage monitors.
TouchMix™ Compact Digital Mixers
Processing presets for optimizing E Series performance are also available in QSC TouchMix™
digital mixers. Even older TouchMix
™
mixers can be made current by updating their firmware.
