EAW MKD1296-WP 2-Way Loudspeaker (White)

High-output installation loudspeaker for demanding environments
The EAW MKD1296-WP WHITE is a 1200W passive 2-way loudspeaker built for permanent installations requiring powerful output, broadband pattern control, and clear, consistent fidelity. Designed to perform in large venues such as stadiums, auditoriums, and music clubs, this system integrates seamlessly into spaces where full-range performance and aesthetics are equally important. With dual 12-inch LF cone drivers and dual HF compression drivers handling the mids and highs, the MKD1296-WP WHITE delivers a broad frequency response with high-impact clarity and precision.

Engineered for accurate broadband pattern control
As part of EAW's MKD Series, the MKD1296-WP WHITE leverages QX-series-inspired technology to achieve precise pattern control and extended bandwidth. Dual 12-inch low-frequency drivers are spaced around a large-format, rotatable high-frequency horn that enhances intelligibility and coverage consistency. The beamwidth-matched crossover technology allows these drivers to operate an octave lower than typical alternatives, providing smoother frequency integration and more impactful bass. Its nominal beamwidth of 90° horizontal by 60° vertical ensures clean and balanced dispersion for both near and far-field listening areas.

Exceptional performance across a full frequency spectrum
This loudspeaker supports an operating range from 47 Hz to 20 kHz, making it suitable for full-range audio applications where speech clarity and music reproduction are equally critical. With a flat SPL of 139 dB and a peak SPL of 145 dB, the MKD1296-WP WHITE delivers high-level output without distortion, even in large and acoustically difficult spaces. The calculated axial output reaches 120 dB average and up to 132 dB peak, offering headroom and dynamic response that ensure the system stays clean and controlled even under heavy loads.

Flexible installation and rigging options
The MKD1296-WP WHITE is housed in a rugged Baltic birch plywood cabinet finished in textured white paint, designed to handle the physical demands of commercial installations. The enclosure includes 12 M10 rigging points for secure attachment with optional mounting accessories, allowing for horizontal or vertical orientation depending on the space. With an IP56-rated weather protection package, the MKD1296-WP WHITE is equipped for both indoor and outdoor environments, delivering performance in all conditions without compromise.

Designed for architectural integration
A gently curved front panel and clean white finish allow this speaker to blend into architecturally sensitive spaces, making it an excellent choice for theaters, churches, and public buildings where appearance matters. It supports both passive and bi-amp operation, giving integrators flexibility to configure the speaker based on system requirements and DSP availability. The terminal block input ensures secure electrical connections, further enhancing reliability in fixed installations.
