HPI5 5" High Output Loudspeaker
At First Glance
The HPI5 is a 5" ultra compact, passive professional sound reinforcement loudspeaker.
Ideally suited to applications that require an ultra lowprofile solution. Its small footprint still manages to deliver medium to high output making the HPI5 ideally suitedto short\medium throw environments.
The HPI5 is optimized for high vocal range intelligibility as a small PA system, or as a fill\delay loudspeaker in larger indoor or outdoor systems.
A full-range system can be created with the addition of an optional subwoofer (HPI12S).
The HPI5 high frequency section comprises a proprietary 3/4 inch horn driver matched to a custom designed symmetrical wide dispersion constant-directivity high frequency horn.
The sound signature of the HPI5 has been created in linewith the entire range of Quest HPI systems making it the perfect companion to a larger system eliminating the need for extensive correction or a dedicated system processor.
An Inside Look
Good things definitely come in small packages and the HPI5 is no exception.
The HPI5 is the culmination of three years of combined research and development by a design team determined to release a loudspeaker product that would be an uncontested class leader in power, performance and functionality.
Like all things Quest, our vision was to create a product that embodied our core beliefs:, performance, practicality, value and reliability.
The HPI5 is the culmination of these efforts in our smallest form factor to date.
Intelligent Vocal, Musical Clarity
The innovative wide dispersion symmetrical horn flare ensures exceptional throw of mid-high frequencies deliveringnaturally coherent vocal with projection far superior to anyother speaker in its class.
Musical reproduction is also impressive with the ultra high powered 5” woofer providing astonishing low end performance all the way down to 75Hz.
High Power, Small Footprint
Weighing in at less than 6.5kg and under 25cm, the HPI5 is easy to underestimate from the onset.
Cleverly designed using the latest in high power compactdriver technology, the HPI5's custom designed 5" high tech woofer and 1" coherent phase compression driver create the best in performance, size and balance.
Pro Portable or Fixed Installation
With three standard 1/4" BSW microphone mounting points:one on either side and one on the base, the HPI5 can be used in a myriad of ways.
When connecting directly to a standard microphone stand either vertically or horizontally, the unit becomes a powerful portable PA.
By employing the use of the WBHPIU bracket, the HPI5 can be installed either from ceilings, walls or even used as a desktop unit.
Standard speaker pole mounting is also possible with an adaptor.
Clean Lines, Subtle Design
The HPI5 is a loudspeaker, not a neon light.
We wanted to create a subtle speaker that blends into thebackground without drawing undue attention to itself.
With a clean black finish and low profile outlined branding along the side grill, the HPI5 blends into the background making for discrete installation.
Wooden Body, Steel Faced
The HPI5 chassis is made of the same heavy duty birch ply wood as our hard working and industry trusted Q-Motion systems.
Finished with an extremely resilient black coating then fitted with a wrap-around heavy gauge protective steel grille, the HPI5 has been crafted to endure even the most demanding environments; and built to last.
