DAS Audio HQ 112.95-CX - 1600W 12-inch Passive 2-Way IP54-Rated Installation Loudspeaker with 90 x 50-Degree Coverage in ISO-Flex Black Finish

The DAS Audio HQ 112.95-CX is a high-performance 1600W passive 2-way installation loudspeaker designed for use in covered exposure applications, making it an ideal choice for venues requiring reliability and durability without direct environmental exposure. This model features a robust ISO-flex black finish, providing both aesthetic appeal and protection against the elements. With an IP54 rating, the loudspeaker is built to perform exceptionally in various professional audio environments, including theaters, concert halls, and other indoor installations.

Featuring a two-way long-throw configuration, the HQ 112.95-CX incorporates a horn-loaded 12-inch low-frequency loudspeaker (12HQN) combined with the M-78N neodymium compression driver. This powerful combination delivers an impressive frequency range from 80 Hz to 18 kHz, ensuring that the loudspeaker can reproduce a wide array of sounds with clarity and precision. With a maximum peak sound pressure level (SPL) of 141 dB at 1 meter, the HQ 112.95-CX is capable of producing the high output necessary for large audiences and demanding performances.

The loudspeaker features tight coverage angles of 90° horizontal and 50° vertical, allowing for effective sound dispersion across wide areas while minimizing reflections. This precise coverage is especially beneficial in applications such as live events and presentations where clarity and sound directionality are critical. The rotatable horn design enhances installation flexibility, enabling users to adjust the orientation based on specific venue layouts and audience configurations.

The HQ 112.95-CX also offers selectable passive and bi-amplified operating modes, allowing users to choose the configuration that best suits their audio system. The nominal impedance of the loudspeaker is 8 ohms for the LF, MF, and HF drivers, ensuring compatibility with a variety of amplifiers. The recommended amplifiers for optimal performance include the DX-100I-230, DX-100I-115, DX-80I-230, and DX-80I-115. Additionally, processors such as the INTEGRAL-M88, INTEGRAL-MA1604, and INTEGRAL-MA1004 can be used to enhance the system's capabilities.

Connectivity options are robust, featuring a speakON NL4 audio input connector and covered barrier strip terminals for secure connections, as well as a second speakON NL4 output connector for daisy chaining multiple units. The enclosure is constructed from high-quality birch plywood, designed to enhance acoustic performance while ensuring durability. The trapezoidal geometry allows for efficient stacking and rigging, with stainless steel rigging points for secure mounting options.

Measuring 39.0 x 27.0 x 24.0 inches and weighing 123.5 lbs (56.0 kg), the HQ 112.95-CX is designed to be substantial yet manageable for transport and installation. The shipping dimensions of 42.1 x 25.6 x 29.3 inches and a shipping weight of 133.4 lbs facilitate efficient handling, ensuring that this high-performance loudspeaker is ready for deployment in any professional audio environment.
