Meet the QSC CB10 — Compact, Battery-Powered, and Built for Real Working Pros

Portable speakers used to come with compromise. You’d either get great sound but be stuck near an outlet… or you’d get mobility but lose punch, clarity, and professional reliability. The QSC CB10 changes that conversation completely.

This is a true professional battery-powered loudspeaker, the kind of system you can confidently roll into a paid gig, outdoor event, ceremony, pop-up, rehearsal, or corporate job and know it’s going to deliver. Power, portability, and polish in one compact system… that’s the CB10.

And yes, you’re going to start seeing these everywhere.


What Exactly Is the QSC CB10?

The CB10 is QSC’s compact, battery-capable loudspeaker designed specifically for DJs, mobile entertainers, musicians, event production teams, corporate presenters, and small PA environments that need real sound reinforcement without being tied to a power source.

It’s small enough to take anywhere. Powerful enough to trust anywhere. And versatile enough to handle whatever your gig throws at you, from speech to music to live performance.

That balance is rare.


Serious Power. Real Sound. No Compromise.

This isn’t a “nice little portable speaker.” It’s a legitimate PA system in a smaller frame.

The CB10 features:

  • A 10-inch high-excursion low-frequency driver for full, confident low-end
  • A 1-inch compression driver delivering clean, articulate highs without harshness
  • A tuning and voicing approach that feels distinctly “QSC” — tight, controlled, and professional

Translation:
Music hits with energy. Vocals stay crystal clear. Speech sounds natural — not thin, boxy, or overly processed.

It sounds bigger than it looks, and that matters when you’re performing for real audiences, not bedroom demos.


Battery-Powered Performance = Freedom

One of the biggest wins? Mobility.

Being battery-capable means you can:

  • Run a wedding ceremony anywhere on property
  • Power cocktail hour audio without dragging cables across a venue
  • Handle outdoor pop-ups, promotional events, and activations
  • Take your performance to parks, plazas, rooftops, and remote setups
  • Keep going even when outlets are nowhere in sight

Of course, it also runs on AC when you need traditional power. But knowing you can unplug and still sound professional… that’s a huge advantage.

And it’s lightweight, so it actually feels portable, not like you’re hauling a “portable” gym workout.


Built-In Mixer + Smart Control = Effortless Setup

The CB10 doesn’t just sound great, it’s incredibly practical.

You get:

  • A 3-channel integrated mixer
  • Two combo XLR inputs
  • Bluetooth audio streaming
  • Onboard presets and DSP to optimize performance
  • Intuitive controls right on the rear panel

Plus, the QSC Loudspeaker Control app gives you expanded control from your phone or tablet, so you can fine-tune without diving behind the speaker mid-event. If you’ve ever had to do that in dress clothes or during a wedding… you know why that’s a big deal.

There’s even a programmable room delay built in, making it useful for distributed PA and larger production environments. It’s not just a portable speaker, it’s a real system tool.


Designed for Real Working Environments

One of the big strengths of the CB10 is how flexible it is in deployment. You can:

  • Mount it on a speaker stand
  • Pole-mount it as part of a larger rig
  • Use its tilt-back wedge angle on the floor
  • Run it as a stage monitor
  • Extend it as a PA system fill

Wherever you need audio, it adapts.

And because it’s QSC, the build quality feels road-ready, stable, and capable of handling real transport and work, not just occasional hobby use.


The QSC CB10 isn’t just another portable speaker entering a crowded category. It feels like a significant step forward for anyone who needs true professional sound with real mobility, smart control, thoughtful design, and the reliability QSC is known for.

If you’re a DJ, entertainer, musician, corporate tech, or event professional who needs a solution that works hard, sounds great, and doesn’t tie you to power outlets, the CB10 deserves a serious look.
