Blackline Q12 is a compact yet powerful loudspeaker, featuring a 12” (300mm) LF driver with 2.5” (63mm) voice coil and a 1” (25mm) exit HF compression driver with 1.7” (43mm) dome. Its Differential Dispersion horn ensures wide and consistent coverage and can be easily rotated for either horizontal or vertical orientation, making it adaptable to various deployment needs.

When paired with a BlacklineQ Series subwoofer, Q12 transforms into a high-performance dancefloor or sound reinforcement system—delivering impressive output and clarity for its size, while remaining highly portable.

Constructed from durable plywood, Q12 is finished in a tough black paint and protected by a screw-tight steel grille. It includes M8 inserts for wall brackets, yoke or eyebolt suspension, and the pole-mount socket has a removable cover to maintain clean aesthetics in installed applications.

This full-range, passive two-way system is recommended to be used with a processor and amplifier, or a combined amplifier-processor unit, such as a DX processor and VIA amplifier, or an iKON combined amplifier and processor.
