DESCRIPTION

•Extraordinary impact

•High efficiency

•Extended response

The KF940 is a horn loaded subwoofer that provides output levels, frequency response extension, and efficiency completly out of proprotion to its size. Widely known as the SuperSub™, The KF940 is engineerd to be used in arrays of four or more to produce extremely high output sub bass response to the very bottom of the audible spectrum.

To provide the 13-foot horn length needed for the desired enclosure size, EAW Engineers used advaced, bent rather than folded horn technology. Folding creates sharp corners that do not allow the expanding sound wave front to maneuver well above certain frequencies. This reduces output and increases distortion through air turbulence. Bending instead of folding allows all frequencies to easily pass without interference. This minimizes size without minimizing sound quality and output. The two 12-in drivers are specially designed to endure the extreme conditions the SuperSub imposes.

For portability, the KF940 includes balance-optimized handles and a heavy duty, caster pallet that bolts to its rear.

The KF940 is appropriate for any application requiring extremely high output levels of sub bass information. Relatively small SuperSub™ arrays have successfully filled the largest stadiums and arenas with high impact, sub bass information. Applications include stadiums concert tours, nightclubs, raves, dance clubs, houses of worship, corporate A/V, and theatres.

The KF940 is designed to be used with today's sophisticated digital signal processing to optimize the LF response. EAW's MX Series processors are recommended for the required crossover and equalization. Six Year Warranty.
