Turbosound iQ8 Powered Loudspeaker — Compact 2,500W Workhorse

The Turbosound iQ8 is a 2,500-watt, two-way powered loudspeaker built for portable PA and fixed installations. An 8-inch low-frequency driver with a low-mass voice coil pairs with a 1-inch compression driver for full-range sound from a fibre-glass reinforced composite enclosure. A two-channel Klark Teknik Class-D amplifier drives both drivers bi-amped, while integrated DSP manages dynamic EQ, transparent limiting, and speaker modelling.

Klark Teknik DSP, SCC, and ULTRANET Networking

What separates this 8-inch cabinet from entry-level powered boxes is the onboard Klark Teknik DSP, which adds Spatial Contour Control (SCC) to compensate frequency response based on physical placement — wall, ceiling, corner, or pole. Speaker modelling loads accurate emulations of industry-standard loudspeakers, and ULTRANET digital audio networking streams up to 16 channels over a single Cat 5 cable to compatible mixers and personal monitoring systems.

Technical Parameters

The two-way driver complement, bi-amped Class-D power, and flexible I/O make this cabinet suitable for standalone use or pairing with a subwoofer such as the iQ15B or iQ18B.

Mobile DJs, Houses of Worship, and Small-Venue Performers

Mobile DJs, worship leaders, and small-venue performers will find this compact cabinet fits pole-mount, flown, and front-fill roles. The iQ8 is the right choice for anyone who needs a compact, high-output loudspeaker with built-in DSP. Solo musicians benefit from EQ presets (Live, Speech, Playback, Flat) and the feedback-killer DSP that learns and notches problem frequencies automatically. For installations in bars, clubs, and conference rooms, SCC room-compensation modes and ULTRANET networking keep cabling simple.

Turbosound and the iQ Series

Turbosound built its reputation on large-format touring loudspeakers and installed house-of-worship systems before expanding into compact powered cabinets with the iQ Series. The iQ8 brings that pro-audio heritage into a portable 8-inch format, pairing touring-grade reliability with the digital signal-processing expertise of sister company Klark Teknik.
