Introducing the QSC CB10 — A Flexible, Battery-Powered PA Solution for Modern AV Applications
26/01/2026
The QSC CB10 is a compact, battery-powered loudspeaker designed for professional AV environments where flexibility, performance and fast deployment matter.
Meeting the Demand for Flexible, Battery-Powered Audio
Portable audio has become a core requirement across modern AV projects, as spaces and use cases continue to evolve. From flexible learning environments and corporate meeting spaces to live events, pop-ups and temporary installations, audio systems are expected to move easily, deploy quickly and adapt without compromise. Increasingly, there is demand for professional sound reinforcement that operates independently of fixed power and permanent infrastructure, while still delivering consistent, high-quality results.
The QSC CB10 Compact Battery-Powered Loudspeaker System has been designed to meet this challenge. It combines professional audio performance with fast, flexible deployment, offering a practical solution for AV applications where mobility, reliability and ease of use are just as important as sound quality.
Professional Performance in a Compact Format
Battery-powered systems have traditionally involved compromise, but the CB10 takes a different approach. Featuring a 10-inch low-frequency driver and a 1-inch compression driver, it delivers clear, full-range sound suitable for both speech and music applications.
Despite its compact footprint, the CB10 offers the output, clarity and consistency expected in professional AV environments — making it well suited to classrooms, training rooms, presentations and mobile event use.
Integrated Mixing and Connectivity
The CB10 includes a built-in 3-channel mixer, allowing microphones, instruments and playback devices to be connected directly without additional equipment. Alongside mic and line-level inputs, Bluetooth® audio streaming enables quick, wireless playback.
Onboard DSP and input presets help users achieve consistent results quickly, reducing setup time and simplifying operation — particularly useful for mobile or temporary applications.
Designed to Integrate and Scale
While ideal as a standalone system, the CB10 can also be integrated into larger deployments. With up to 200 ms of delay, it can function as a delay fill or reinforcement zone within distributed PA systems, maintaining tonal consistency alongside other QSC loudspeakers.
At Audiologic, we see the CB10 fitting naturally into:
• Education and training spaces • Corporate and presentation environments • Event and rental applications • Temporary and pop-up installations
Its combination of professional sound quality, battery operation and app-based control makes it a flexible addition to modern audio systems.
If you’d like to explore how the QSC CB10 could support your next project, Audiologic can help with system design advice, demonstrations and specification support.
App-Based Control for Faster Setup
The CB10 works with the QSC Loudspeaker Control app, enabling wireless configuration and control from a smartphone or tablet. This allows users to:
• Adjust input levels remotely • Apply presets and DSP settings • Configure delay for distributed systems • Monitor and manage multiple loudspeakers
This app-based control streamlines setup, tuning and commissioning, especially once speakers are mounted or positioned out of reach.
The QSC Loudspeaker Control app supports both the CB10 and KC12, enabling consistent wireless control across portable and column-based QSC systems from a single interface.
