The EAW MK8196z WHITE is a compact, high-performance loudspeaker designed to deliver exceptional sound quality for a variety of applications, setting a new standard for installation performance. This 300W 8-inch passive 2-way speaker is specifically designed to overcome the limitations of traditional compact loudspeakers while maintaining a smaller, more manageable size. Whether used in small houses of worship, corporate environments, auditoriums, or any venue requiring precise, high-quality audio, the MK8196z WHITE offers broad 90° horizontal by 60° vertical coverage, making it ideal for both foreground and background audio in indoor settings.
The MK8196z WHITE stands out in the marketplace by addressing common issues faced by other compact two-way loudspeakers. It features a high-frequency (HF) horn loaded with a 1-inch exit, 1.5-inch voice coil compression driver, which is larger than most traditional compact two-way horns. This design provides superior pattern control and allows the horn to extend its coverage lower into the midrange frequencies. This extension improves the overlap of the HF horn's pattern with the woofer's pattern in the critical crossover area, resulting in smoother transitions and eliminating the beamwidth mismatch that causes off-axis voids commonly found in traditional two-way systems.
The internal passive crossover/filter network within the MK8196z WHITE is engineered to integrate the subsystems seamlessly, using advanced asymmetrical slopes. This innovative design smooths the power response, ensuring a balanced sound output. The system can be powered by a single amplifier channel while providing optimal crossover points. The speaker's user-rotatable horn allows for flexible mounting orientations - whether vertically or horizontally - offering additional versatility in installation. With a maximum SPL of 130 dB (12 dB crest factor) and 124 dB (6 dB crest factor), this loudspeaker can handle demanding environments and provide clear, powerful sound reproduction.
The MK8196z WHITE is also built for durability and ease of installation. Its exterior-grade Baltic birch plywood enclosure ensures that it can withstand the demands of professional environments, while the sleek white finish allows it to seamlessly blend into any setting. The included U-bracket mounting accessory makes it easy to position the loudspeaker for optimal coverage, whether in a fixed installation or portable setup. The speaker's physical design and robust construction make it a reliable choice for long-term use in both commercial and residential applications.
