Although we refer to it as a “column” loudspeaker, the INSPIRE iP1000 delivers the powerful, high-quality sound and optimized dispersion inspired by our award-winning line array products – in a surprisingly lightweight and easy to use, all-in-one form factor. Thanks to an on-board 3-channel digital mixer and multichannel 1,000-Watt Class-D amplifier driving a custom-engineered dual 8″ subwoofer, 8 x 2.75″ neodymium drivers, and a horn-loaded super tweeter, the iP1000 is ideally suited for small to medium-sized performance venues, houses of worship, boardroom presentations, nightclubs, and much more.

The iP1000 is lightweight: only 24.8 kg (54.7 lbs) and features industry-leading KLARK TEKNIK Digital Sound Processing (DSP), studio-grade stereo reverb, Class-D amplifier, and Spatial Sound technologies – plus convenient Bluetooth stereo audio streaming and iPhone/iPad remote control.

Tiny PA – 1,000 Watts of Perfect Sound

Designed for maximum portability, iP1000’s column fits neatly into the shoulder bag (available separately), and setup is fast and easy; just attach the column to the base and connect your mic, or mixer feed, and power. Three channels of our revolutionary Class-D amplifier technology provide 1,000 Watts of incredible sonic performance in an easy-to-use, ultra-portable, and lightweight package. This amazing technology makes it possible to design and build extremely powerful products that are significantly lighter in weight than their traditional counterparts while using less energy and protecting the environment. The lightweight Switch Mode Power Supply, coupled with an industry-leading DSP module, provides dynamic equalization and sophisticated limiting functions to ensure optimal performance and long-term reliability. The powerful iP1000 fills the room with the world-famous TURBOSOUND “sound” that has won the coveted Queen’s Award – an unprecedented three times.

Outstanding Sound Dispersion

Much like the huge line array systems you’ve experienced at concerts and outdoor festivals (we make those too), the 2.75″ neodymium midrange / extended high-frequency drivers in the iP1000 columns are strategically placed to provide up to a 120° horizontal dispersion pattern. Such wide coverage eliminates the need for monitor wedges for the performers and creates a more even, sonically balanced soundscape that covers the entire room. By taking advantage of the arrival-time differential between sound waves reaching the left and right ears, iP1000’s groundbreaking Spatial Sound Technology (SST) creates a wide, well-defined virtual 3-D acoustic environment, enveloping the listener in a rich and more realistic experience. No matter where you sit, the location of the onstage voices and instruments are perceived in their rightful position within the soundscape, for a performance that is beautifully open and transparent – with unparalleled intelligibility.

DSP – the Secret to Superb Sound

From the instant your signal enters the iP1000, the built-in DSP takes over ensuring the highest possible signal integrity. Much more than just selective EQ enhancement, the 24- bit processor analyses the incoming signal and intelligently applies specific filters to actually improve the sound quality. It’s like having an audio engineer monitoring the input and output signals, dialing in the perfect EQ, and constantly making subtle adjustments to the crossover, compressor/limiter, three discrete amplifier channels, and more – all of which adds up to the significantly better sound.

Our speakers are designed specifically for each application – it’s what sets us apart from the competition. When you buy a TURBOSOUND speaker system, you can rest assured that the speakers inside have been engineered to perform flawlessly in conjunction with every other element for truly professional results.

Built-in Digital Mixer – Comprehensive Remote Control

The iP1000 features a fully addressable onboard digital mixer with two combo jack/XLR connectors that accept balanced and unbalanced connections for dynamic mics and line-level instruments. The simple and intuitive user interface consists of a single rotary push-encoder with Process, Setup, Exit, and Enter function buttons. A beautifully backlit LCD display controls DSP functions including mixer parameters, 3 band EQ, and presets. All settings can be controlled locally, or via free downloadable iPhone/iPad apps – and locked down to prevent unauthorized access.We take Bluetooth a step further, giving you total control of the iP1000 directly from your iPhone or iPad. This amazing feature lets you adjust all settings from either the listening area or the stage, for the perfect sound every time. The dedicated apps are available free of charge at turbosound.com, or from the Apple App Store.

Sweet Sound of Reverb

If your iP1000 is used mainly for speeches and presentations, you may not need it – but if you plan to perform on a musical instrument or sing, you will probably want to add some effects. So, we have included a great-sounding digital Reverb processor to help sweeten your sound. This easy-to-use, studio-grade vocal effect provides the perfect finishing touch, giving your performance a dash of professional polish.
