QSC KW152 15-Inch 2-Way Active Speaker, 1000W

The QSC KW152 15-Inch 2-Way Active Speaker builds on the success of our K Series, the KW Series represents the next evolutionary step in wood enclosure loudspeakers. Our system engineers have created the KW Series to feature all the groundbreaking electronic attributes of our popular K Series while at the same time designing a product that is both smaller and significantly lighter than previous wood enclosure models.
