The KLA Series brings the power and sophistication of a line array
system into an easy-to-use product significantly redefining the
line array product category. With its simple Lift, Click and Play
approach, KLA can be deployed in a fraction of the time required
by comparable line array products. This fixed arcuate, active line
array system is ideal for a wide range of portable and permanently
installed applications ranging from live entertainment to houses of
worship or other venues where a line array system is desired.
KLA Power Module
The KLA Series is comprised of two models: the KLA12 12-inch,
2-way loudspeaker and the KLA181 18-inch subwoofer. The KLA12
features a highly efficient 500 W x 500 W power amp module and
the KLA181 offers the same highly efficient power amp module
in a 1000 W configuration. This efficient design enables up to five
KLA models (any combination of KLA12 and KLA181) to be driven
off of a single 15 amp/120V (8A / 230V) electrical circuit. KLA
loudspeakers incorporate QSC’s DEEP™ DSP algorithm, providing
extended bass response by actively managing potentially damaging
low-frequency transients, and GuardRail™ circuitry protection which
prevents the amplifier module from unnatural and destructive
clipping. As an energy saving feature, the Auto Standby mode
automatically engages after five minutes of inactivity but upon
resumption of audio signal, the power module on the KLA will
awaken instantly for immediate output.
In an installed application, multiple KLA Series loudspeakers can be
“daisy-chained” for total gain control from a single remote pot wired
to the on-board Phoenix-style connector. Additional power module
characteristics on KLA include a balanced, line-level XLR input in
parallel with an XLR “Thru” connector, powerCON

In and Thru
connectors, Attenuation Control and LED indicators for Signal and
Limit, as well as discrete LED indicators for Power/Standby status.
