AcousticDesign AD-S82
The QSC AcousticDesign AD-S82 is a full range, surface mount
loudspeaker with sleek, contemporary styling that fits perfectly into
multiple environments and applications including hotels, restaurants,
convention facilities, and multimedia environments. The speaker incorporates
QSC’s revolutionary IntelliDock™ intelligent mounting system
(patent pending) combined with the Advanced Directivity™ rotatable
waveguide. Available in black or white, these great sounding, weather
resistant enclosures can be painted to match any specific decor.
With both high output and standard versions, the AD-S82 is a 2-way system
housed in a ported enclosure made from injection molded, high impact polystyrene.
This enclosure incorporates an 8" weatherproof, LF transducer with
a heavy-duty double roll cloth surround. High output versions employ a
1" exit compression HF driver while standard versions provide a 1"
pure titanium dome tweeter. Both versions are available with or without
a transformer. The HF driver is coupled with QSC’s unique Advanced
Directivity rotatable waveguide—enabling the loudspeaker to deliver
accurately focused sound, regardless of it’s mounted orientation.
QSC’s new IntelliDock intelligent mounting system raises the bar
for contractor speaker ease of installation and security. The IntelliDock
docking station combines all the components needed to mount, wire, and
position the speaker into a single housing—independent from the
enclosure. The speaker enclosure locks onto the docking station in one
step, simultaneously making electrical connections and holding the speaker
in place. This exceptional design carries the added benefit of security—reducing
the possibility of theft. When opening night arrives, snap the enclosures
into the docking stations and feed the program material. A total of three
mounting configurations are available—including a standard yoke
mount.

EASE
Recognized as the de facto standard for sound system modeling
software, EASE is designed to assist architects, engineers, consultants,
and contractors discover the sonic characteristics of an environment before
a building is completed. The following downloadable ZIP files are archives
of the individual loudspeaker’s data set.
