Whether used in theaters, houses of worship, or auditoriums, the MK8196iPL-WP provides clear, powerful audio that meets the demands of even the most discerning listeners.

Advanced Horn Design for Superior Sound Control
At the core of the MK8196iPL-WP’s design is a larger-than-average HF horn, which houses a 1-inch exit/1.5-inch voice coil compression driver. This advanced design extends pattern control lower into the midrange, allowing the horn’s 120° horizontal by 60° vertical coverage pattern to seamlessly overlap with the woofer’s pattern. The result is a more coherent and controlled sound, eliminating the off-axis voids typically found in traditional two-way systems.

Precision Crossover Technology for Smooth Audio Transition
The MK8196iPL-WP features EAW’s beamwidth matching crossover technology, which precisely transitions between the high-frequency and low-frequency subsystems. By optimizing the crossover points, this technology ensures that the audio remains consistent and smooth across all frequencies, avoiding the phase issues that can cause distortion and loss of clarity. This precision makes the MK8196iPL-WP ideal for environments where sound quality is paramount.

Versatile Installation Options with Rotatable Horn
One of the standout features of the MK8196iPL-WP is its user-rotatable horn, which allows for flexible installation. Whether mounted vertically or horizontally, this loudspeaker can be adjusted to suit the specific needs of your space. This versatility makes it an excellent choice for a wide range of professional audio applications, providing consistent coverage and high-quality sound regardless of the installation configuration.

High-Performance Audio with Simplified Setup
The MK8196iPL-WP is designed to deliver high-performance audio with a simplified setup. Its internal passive crossover and filter network allow it to be powered by a single amplifier channel, while also smoothing power response for a more balanced sound. This streamlined design not only reduces the complexity of installation but also ensures that the loudspeaker delivers optimal performance in any setting.
