The NEXO PS10 Loudspeaker can be safely driven with over 500 Watts of amplifier power, yet it is only half the weight and volume of standard trapezoidal systems.
The dispersion, architecture and weight balance of the PS10 Loudspeaker are designed to provide both exceptional PA and stage monitor performance from a single product without compromise. This flexibility is realized by a proprietary constant directivity asymmetrical dispersion horn, easily rotated in four positions by the user. Coupled with the horn’s unique progressive horizontal (50° to 100°) and vertical (55°) dispersion, the most suitable pattern can be selected for vertical or horizontal PA usage or wedge monitoring. The 2-way passive 8 Ohm design uses a single amplifier channel to deliver bi-amped performance for less money, space and complexity.
The PS10 Loudspeaker System is the foundation of Nexo’s acclaimed PS Series; versatile, compact, full-range loudspeakers tailored for a wide range of touring and installed sound reinforcement applications. Like all Nexo products, the PS10 Loudspeaker and optional LS500 Subwoofer are designed to work with advanced electronic processors, guaranteeing consistent performance and reliability of the highest standard.

| Electronic Controller | The PS10 Loudspeaker must be used with a Nexo Controller (PS10 TD analogue, NX241 digital or PS10AMP integrated power amplifier). Use without a properly connected Controller will result in poor sound quality and may damage the components. |
| Dispersion configuration | After removing the quick-release front grille, the HF Horn can be rotated to one of 4 positions for dispersion configuration. |
| Subbass | The PS10 Loudspeaker can be used with or without the optional LS500 Subwoofer. Active two-way operation with the LS500 is included in the PS10TD, NX241 or PS10AMP. One LS500 matches 2 x PS10, additional LS500 may be used for enhanced effect. |
| Speaker Cables | The PS10 is wired 2- & 2+ on Speakon connectors, LS500 on 1- & 1+. Loop through Speakons are present on both products. Single identical cables can thus be used to loop through combinations of up to 2 x PS10 & 1 x LS500 in no particular order. |
| Weight & Volume | 2 x PS.10U = 34 kg (75.1 lbs) 0.169 cu m (5.96 cu ft) |
