QSC CP8 is a compact and powerful 8″ powered speaker, suitable for both foldback and Front-of-House use.

Compared with K8.2, this CP8 is significantly more compact, and has a little less power.

CP8 weighs just 9.5kg, and shines as a speaker for acoustic solo/duo acts, or as a stand-mounted booth monitor for DJ applications.

Don’t be fooled by the compact form, there are plenty of tricks on the back of CP8, with two combo XLR/jack inputs (input is line level, input 2 is mic or line level), plus a stereo mini jack input for set-break music.

There’s even a few clever and useable ‘contour’ presets, being ‘default’, ‘dance’ (each with the option for with or without subwoofer), plus a setting for ‘floor monitor’ and for ‘speech’.

Here’s what QSC has to say about CP series:

The CP Series follows in that same tradition while also offering an ultra-compact form factor and class-leading value.
