The QSC AcousticDesign™ AD-S4T is a 
surface mounted 70/100V, 4.5" two-way 
loudspeaker system, ideally suited for a 
wide variety of foreground and background 
sound reinforcement applications.
AcousticDesign™ series offers integrators 
a premium quality installed sound solution 
where performance, coverage, and 
aesthetics are paramount.  Combined with 
unprecedented ease-of-installation and high 
weather resistance, the AcousticDesign™ 
Series provides integrators a versatile and 
confident install solution.
The AD-S4T features a high quality 100 mm 
[4 in] weather treated paper cone woofer 
on a 25 mm [1 in] voice coil.  A carefully 
selected 19 mm [.75 in] silk dome tweeter 
with a 19 mm [.75 in] voice coil perfectly 
matches the sensitivity and performance 
of the woofer for outstanding full-range 
reproduction.
Consistent and even 120° axisymmetric 
(conical) coverage is achieved through 
DMT™ (Directivity Matched Transition), 
a QSC innovation which matches the 
directivity patterns of the woofer and the 
high-frequency waveguide at the crossover 
point.  The result is a coherent transition 
between transducers and improved off-axis 
response.
The even, accurate frequency response 
of the AD-S4T is maintained even in 
70/100V applications by use of a low-loss, 
low-saturation 30-watt transformer with 
ZLSLJ[HISL[HWZPUJS\KPUNHU£I`WHZZ
To preserve weather resistance, the rotary 
selector is located on the back of the 
enclosure, protected by a weather grommet.
 
With rugged ABS enclosures, sealed 
input panel covers, and powder-coated 
aluminum grilles for weather resistance, the 
AcousticDesign™ surface mounted series 
exceed IEC60529 IP-54 ratings for dust and 
splash resistance.
Installers will appreciate the award-winning 
X-Mount™ system included with each 
full-range AcousticDesign™ model.  This 
ingenious mounting solution achieves 
unprecedented ease-of-installation 
in horizontal, vertical, wall, or ceiling 
deployments.  Knurled surfaces at the 
pivot planes ensure the load will not drift 
or sag over time.  Articulation marks allow 
preconfiguration of the X-Mount™ while on 
the ground with no special tools required.  
Once secure, the loudspeaker installs in 
seconds, allowing the installer to work safer, 
smarter, and faster with repeatable results.
To further enhance performance and speed 
of install with optimum result, advanced 
voicing filter sets using QSC Intrinsic 
Correction™ techniques are obtainable via 
the Q-SYS Platform including CXD Series 
amplifiers for a complete QSC systems 
solution.
The AcousticDesign™ Series feature a 
stylish appearance free of obtrusive logo 
adornments for aesthetically sensitive 
installations.  AcousticDesign™ surface 
loudspeakers are available in QSC standard 
black (RAL 9011) or white (RAL 9010) and 
may be painted to match any decor.
For your system integration needs, complete 
EASE, CF2, CAD, and BIM files are available 
for download at QSC.com.
