Antonio,
S-8000 stage speaker is KCS copy of a JBL 5672 3 way unit with the same published specifications - THX approved.
S-7000 is a 3 way system with a dual 15' bass cabinet + midrange short horn + high frequency short horn....crossover points 500HZ / 2.5KHZ 100db minimum average sensitivity / 137db peak output at 1 meter.
C118 is a KCS copy of a JBL 3635 subwoofer with more power handling capability tempered with less sensitivity than JBL so the end result is probably matched between the brands. C218 is the KCS copy of the JBL 4642A dual subwoofer speaker with the same output specification. The KCS weighs 24 KG less than the JBL. THX approved.
SR10A is the KCS version of the JBL 8340A "wood box" surround. THX approved.
SR12A has a 12' woofer with a "baby cheek" tweeter with 1 db more sensitivity and 50% greater peak output versus the SR10A. THX approved.
I have heard all of the above in my travels and have used the SR10A to finish a multiplex project when JBL had some delivery problems last year....just call me an informed supplier of JBL [thumbsup]
