Martin Audio Blackline Q10

Two-Way Passive

Compact 10" System

With a peak SPL of 125dB (131dB with crest factor 4), Blackline Q10 is a high-performance yet compact passive two-way loudspeaker system. It features a 10” (250mm) LF driver with a 2.5” (63mm) voice coil and a 1” (25mm) exit HF compression driver with a 1.4” (36mm) dome. The system incorporates a Differential Dispersion horn for wider and more consistent coverage, which can be easily rotated for horizontal or vertical orientation depending on deployment requirements.

Blackline Q10 offers exceptional versatility across a wide range of professional applications — from distributed sound reinforcement, houses of worship, and AV events to front-fill/in-fill duties and use as an unobtrusive stage monitor. Its high output performance makes it uniquely suited for music bars and clubs that demand upfront sound levels from a compact enclosure.

When paired with a BlacklineQ Series subwoofer, Q10 becomes a remarkably powerful yet portable system, ideal for small dancefloors or sound reinforcement applications where space is limited but performance is critical.

Constructed from durable plywood and finished in a tough black textured paint, Q10 features a screw-fixed steel grille, M8 inserts for wall brackets, yokes or eyebolt suspension, and a pole-mount socket with a removable cover to maintain clean lines in installed applications.

This full-range, passive two-way system is recommended to be used with a processor and amplifier, or a combined amplifier-processor unit, such as a DX processor and VIA amplifier, or an iKON combined amplifier and processor.
