QSC PL-SUB10 – Passive 10-in Installation Subwoofer, Black
Product Overview
The QSC PL-SUB10-BK is a 10-inch passive installation subwoofer offering a highly compact low-frequency solution for installed AV systems in smaller venues and distributed applications. Delivering 121 dB continuous SPL with a frequency response reaching 44 Hz (–6 dB), the PL-SUB10 provides meaningful bass extension in spaces where a larger subwoofer would be physically impractical.
Product Description
The PL-SUB10 houses a 10-inch woofer with a 3-inch voice coil in a compact bass-reflex cabinet built from exterior-grade plywood with polyurea paint. At just 41.8 lbs net weight and measuring 11 × 16.7 × 20 inches, the PL-SUB10 is among the most installation-friendly subwoofers in the PL Series lineup while still handling 450 W continuously and 900 W rated. The IP65-rated input cup accepts dual Speakon NL4 connectors and a 4-pole Euroblock. Four M10 rigging points on both the bottom and sides allow flexible mounting and stacking configurations. Like all PL Series loudspeakers, the PL-SUB10 integrates directly with Q-SYS for system-level processing, EQ, and monitoring, making it a natural fit in Q-SYS-managed installed sound ecosystems.
