AD-S32T
AcousticDesign™ Loudspeaker
The AcousticDesign Series of installation loudspeaker
products from QSC Audio expands with the new
AD-S32T surface mount loudspeaker system.
Designed for background and general purpose audio
playback, the new AD-S32T is attractive, compact and
acoustically matched to the entire AD Series. Rated
for 30 watts continuous power handling and able to
handle 120 watt peaks, the AD-S32T is a fully featured
loudspeaker system in a very small package.
The 3" woofer is equipped with a polypropylene cone
for protection in humid environments. The driver
features a synthetic rubber surround and is optimized
to deliver useable low-frequency extension below 70
Hz. An additional humbucking magnet provides AV
shielding. The high-frequency device is a 0.75" dome
tweeter with a titanium diaphragm and a cloth surround.
The dispersion of the high frequency is 100° by 100°.
The AD-S32T measures 85 dB SPL sensitivity.
The enclosure is molded from high-impact
polystyrene and is available in black or white.
The aluminum grille is backed with acoustically
transparent foam that provides protection from the
elements. Signal input connections are made with
plated screw terminals and a sealing weather cover
is provided for outdoor applications.
The AD-S32T is unmatched in its installation versatility.
An included ball mount assembly can be attached
to a variety of surfaces or structures. In addition to
attaching to the rear of the cabinet, the ball mount
can be attached to the top of the cabinet for mounting
to an overhead structure or to the bottom of the
cabinet to provide a shelf stand. Also included in
the system is an aluminum yoke mount. This mount
further enhances the AD-S32T mounting options for
either vertical or horizontal installation. The AD-S32T
is equipped with a 70/100 V transformer with multiple
taps and an 8 ohm bypass.
