QSC - Building Legends One Customer at a Time

The story of QSC Audio is one of a legendary passion for sound that’s built into every single product on behalf of every single customer worldwide. A lofty statement, indeed, but one that has been earned the hard way – the right way - as the company approaches its fourth decade of serving the professional audio marketplace.

Company founders Pat Quilter and John and Barry Andrews long ago teamed up to set a pace of true excellence for QSC that has only intensified with time. They’ve worked tirelessly to build an organization renowned for delivering both the precision and reliability that’s led to the company’s global leadership position.

Humble Beginnings

The QSC story begins more than 35 years ago in a small shop in Costa Mesa, California, where audio products were assembled by hand on plywood tables and continues to this day with an always-evolving state-of-the-art manufacturing facility staffed by highly trained professionals. The result is products that far surpass industry-leading reliability rates while delivering the highest possible audio quality.

Testing To Guarantee

QSC product test procedures, already the most stringent in the industry, continue to increase in scope. Every incident of a problem – or even a potential problem – is thoroughly researched, documented and resolved.

Superior Manufacturing

Product design and manufacturing at QSC are a lock-step process. And fueled by digital tracking of every product from start to finish, the fully automated and computerized manufacturing system logs everything that occurs throughout the entire production process.

The Complete System

When loudspeakers were slated to join the QSC product line, the most repeated comment was “who needs another loudspeaker?” But just as with the company’s development of leading-edge DSP, networking and remote/control and monitoring solutions, that commentary ended as soon as QSC loudspeakers hit the market.

See It Yourself

There’s a whole lot more to this compelling story. In their own words on Building Legends, a new video available for viewing on the QSC website (www.qscaudio.com), Quilter and the Andrews brothers provide a fascinating time capsule view of just how their passion for sound has translated to building legendary products without compromise.

At the same time, there’s another testament - that of an ever-growing worldwide base of professionals who’ve chosen to put their trust in QSC the company, its products and most of all, an unwavering commitment to quality.
