The iNSPIRE column PA system from Turbosound won the coveted Queen’s Award for a reason; despite its unremarkable appearance, it delivers an incredibly high-grade sound quality for small to medium sized events.
Even the transportation of this system is unbeatable. The column can be split into two parts and stored in the included shoulder bag, keeping one hand free for the subwoofer and the other to open doors. The assembly of this system is also very uncomplicated: simply attach both tops to each other and then connect the two to the subwoofer. Now all you have to do is plug in the power supply and connect to the mixer via XLR/Jack and the sound check can begin. Naturally this system can also be connected to other speakers via the Link Outputs.
The iP12B comes equipped with a 12“ subwoofers (column speakers optional), delivering up to 1000 watts, ideal for night clubs, for presentations and much more. The KLARK TEKNIK Class-D amplifier technology is essential for the efficiency of this sub. It allows it to deliver a high-level performance without even approaching its limits or producing much heat. It also weighs very little compared to competitive models in its class.
The integrated 24-bit DSP (Digital Signal Processor) analyses the incoming signal and works automatically to improve the sound quality. EQ, Crossover and compressor/limiter are constantly adjusted as if you had your own engineer with you. The presets are adjusted to the location of the event and position of the speakers. Naturally the user can access all functions and make your own settings with the controls on the rear of the subs. The interface consists of four buttons and an encoder, displaying all of the features on the screen.
Those who want complete access to the mix and settings of the EQ etc. from various locations, without having to stand next to the system or mixer, you can take advantage of the Bluetooth connectivity with your smart-phones and tablets. This makes the technicians job much easier and more efficient when working with the iNSPIRE series from Turbosound. Naturally you can also stream audio from your mobile device via Bluetooth.
Extraodinary sound! Just like having a sound engineer with you. I have tho ip12b and with two 8" satelites there is enough power for a party up to 150 people.
I can't fault this speaker at all for its' price/sound value. It's great. Really. However, it is advertised as bluetooth and yet there seems not to be Android compatibility and the signal you send does not get passed to a speaker linked via the pass through output. (I may be wrong on this, but It didn't work for me). However, I want to state emphatically that I would buy this sub every day of the week for its sound quality and price point alone.
Great subwoofer for its size. Packs a punch and the bluetooth controllable settings are the icing on top which comes in handy when setting levels for the required listening position - no need to fuss behind the subwoofer with the dial. Ideal for small rooms / gigs
