DIMENSIONAL DRAWING

A & E SPECIFICATIONS

The two-way full range loudspeaker systems shall incorporate an 8-in LF transducers and a 1-in exit/1.5-in voice coil com- pression driver HF transducer.

The LF drivers shall be mounted in an optimally vented enclo- sure tuned for maximum low frequency response. The HF driv- er shall be loaded on a constant directivity horn with a nom- inal coverage pattern of 90° (h) x 60° (v). The HF horn shall feature a square flange allowing it to be rotated 90°. An internal passive filter network shall provide fourth order acoustical crossover and system equalization between the low and high frequency sections.

System frequency response shall vary no more than ±3 dB from 89 Hz to 18 kHz measured on axis. The system shall pro- duce a Sound Pressure Level (SPL) of 95 dB SPL on axis at 1 meter with a power input of 1 Watt, and shall be capable of producing a peak output of 125.8 dB SPL on axis at 1 meter. The system shall handle 300 Watts of amplifier power (AES Standard) and shall have a nominal impedance of 8 Ohms.

The loudspeaker enclosure shall be trapezoidal in shape. It shall be constructed of 1/2-in thickness void-free cross-grain- laminated Baltic birch plywood and shall employ extensive internal bracing. It shall be finished in black catalyzed polyurethane. Input connectors shall be two-terminal barrier strip. A total of 13x 3/8"-16 threaded mounting/suspension points (3 each top and bottom, 3 per side and 1 back) shall be provided. Four additional mounting points shall be provid- ed on the rear configured to accept an Omnimount brand Series 100 bracket. The front of the loudspeaker shall be cov- ered with a powder coated perforated steel grille.

The 2-way full range loudspeaker shall be the EAW model

This high-performance speaker system is designed with a host of cutting-edge features and advanced technologies that set it apart in the competitive audio market.

At the heart of the MK8196 is its exceptional driver technology. The speaker utilizes a custom-designed, high-efficiency 15-inch low-frequency driver, which provides deep bass response and outstanding power handling capability. Coupled with a 1.4-inch titanium compression driver, the MK8196 ensures crisp, clear high frequencies that resonate throughout concert venues, auditoriums, and large gatherings. The speaker's 90° x 50° dispersion pattern allows for optimal coverage, ensuring that every corner of a venue can receive the full impact of the sound.

One of the standout features of the MK8196 is its robust construction. The cabinet is built from durable plywood, which not only contributes to the speaker's longevity but also helps to minimize unwanted resonance that can distort sound quality. The enclosure is designed with a weather-resistant coating, making it suitable for outdoor performances and installations. Integrated handles and a lightweight design enhance portability, allowing for easy transport and setup.

Another innovative aspect of the MK8196 is its versatility. Designed for a variety of applications, this speaker can be utilized in both passive and active configurations, depending on the user's needs. When used in passive mode, the speaker connects to an external amplifier, while the active mode incorporates a built-in power amplifier, simplifying the setup process for smaller events.

The MK8196 also integrates advanced connectivity options, including Neutrik Speakon and ¼-inch inputs, enabling seamless integration with a wide range of audio equipment and setups. Its compatibility with various sound systems makes it a popular choice among sound engineers and event organizers alike.

In summary, the EAW MK8196 stands out with its powerful sound delivery, durable design, and versatile applications. With its cutting-edge driver technology, robust construction, and advanced connectivity options, it is finely tuned to meet the demands of professional audio environments, making it an ideal choice for any event requiring high-quality sound reinforcement.
