We will be showcasing the QSC "KC12," an active 3-way column speaker, at the Sound & Recording Magazine Audio Equipment Meeting Vol. 1: Portable Column Speaker Listening Event, taking place on July 21 (Tue) and 22 (Wed), 2026.

The KC12 inherits the legacy of the K Series while combining the elegant design of a column speaker with superior sound quality that surpasses previous models. It features a 12-inch bass-reflex subwoofer capable of reproducing frequencies down to 40 Hz, paired with an array speaker unit equipped with QSC's patented LEAF™ (Length-Equalized Acoustic Flare) waveguide, a professional-grade 1-inch compression driver, and two low-distortion, high-excursion 4-inch midrange drivers. This 3-way system delivers excellent coverage—145° horizontally and 35° vertically—ensuring clear, natural sound at all output levels. With its simple, user-friendly operation, the KC12 is an ideal column speaker system for a wide range of applications, including solo performers, musicians, bands, mobile entertainers, DJs, event producers, and permanent audio installations.

At the event, attendees will have the opportunity to compare the latest portable column speakers from various manufacturers and watch demonstrations and presentations by product specialists. Whether you're considering a purchase or simply want to experience the latest in sound technology, we invite you to join us!
