Overview
For demanding commercial and security applications, the QSC CX-Q 8K8 network amplifier delivers reliable, high-power audio where it matters most. This QSC eight-channel pro amplifier combines native Q-SYS networking with industry-grade amplification—providing up to 8000W total power and flexible Class-D efficiency for clear paging, background music and emergency voice evacuation. Installers benefit from on-board mic/line inputs (with +12V phantom) that feed directly into Q-SYS for centralized processing, while touch-proof Euroblock outputs support low-Z, 70V or 100V direct drive for diverse loudspeaker systems. Advanced features such as FlexAmp asymmetric power distribution and PowerLight universal SMPS lower installation complexity and operating costs, and bi-directional GPIO plus network monitoring enable seamless integration with security, surveillance and monitoring systems. Built-in protection and automatic energy-saving modes keep systems stable under real-world conditions. Ideal for airports, campuses, retail and critical infrastructure deployments — configure the CX-Q 8K8 to meet your networked audio, paging and security monitoring needs today.
