Despite its small size, this speaker outperforms many traditional compact systems, thanks to its advanced design and superior acoustic engineering. Ideal for a variety of professional applications, the MK8126i BLACK is an excellent choice for installations in smaller venues such as corporate A\/V systems, houses of worship, auditoriums, meeting rooms, and more. It can also be used effectively in distributed audio systems and as a fill speaker in larger spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MK8126i BLACK features a powerful 8-inch low-frequency (LF) transducer with a 2-inch voice coil and a vented enclosure for optimal bass response. The high-frequency (HF) transducer is a 1-inch exit, 1.4-inch voice coil compression driver loaded onto a custom-designed constant directivity (CD) horn. This design enhances the speaker's pattern control, providing uniform sound coverage with a nominal beamwidth of 120° horizontally and 60° vertically. The large HF horn allows for pattern control lower into the midrange, ensuring that the horn's pattern overlaps with the woofer's pattern in the critical crossover area, eliminating off-axis voids often found in traditional two-way loudspeakers. This feature delivers a smooth, even response across the entire listening area.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo further optimize the performance, the MK8126i BLACK incorporates an advanced beamwidth-matching crossover system. This system carefully selects the crossover point to ensure that the transition between the LF and HF drivers occurs precisely where their coverage patterns align. This eliminates the beamwidth mismatch that can create gaps in coverage, leading to voids in sound, particularly in the critical crossover region. The passive crossover\/filter network uses complex asymmetrical slopes to integrate the subsystems, providing excellent signal division and performing critical equalization functions that improve the overall sound quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a wide operating range of 65 Hz to 19 kHz, the MK8126i BLACK is capable of delivering clear and balanced sound across a wide frequency spectrum. The loudspeaker offers a maximum SPL of 130 dB (12 dB crest factor) and 124 dB (6 dB crest factor), ensuring that it can handle high-output applications without distortion or loss of clarity. This makes it an ideal solution for both background and foreground sound reinforcement in a variety of environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MK8126i BLACK is built for versatility and ease of installation. Its user-rotatable horn allows for the \"rotate the enclosure around the horn\" option, enabling the speaker to be mounted vertically or horizontally depending on the needs of the space. Additionally, the speaker comes equipped with a U-bracket for easy mounting in a variety of installation scenarios. The robust construction features exterior-grade Baltic birch plywood, ensuring durability while maintaining excellent acoustic performance. The speaker is finished in a sleek, wear-resistant black paint, providing a professional look that blends seamlessly with any installation environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOverall, the EAW MK8126i BLACK offers superior sound performance, flexibility, and reliability for a wide range of professional audio applications. Its compact size, advanced acoustic design, and versatile mounting options make it an excellent choice for installations where space is limited but high-quality sound is essential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e300W passive 2-way portable loudspeaker with an 8-inch LF driver and 1-inch exit compression driver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating range of 65 Hz to 19 kHz, delivering clear and full-range audio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e120° horizontal x 60° vertical nominal beamwidth for even sound coverage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum SPL of 130 dB (12 dB crest factor) and 124 dB (6 dB crest factor)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdvanced beamwidth-matching crossover system to eliminate off-axis voids\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRotatable horn design allows for vertical or horizontal mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePassive crossover\/filter network with asymmetrical slopes for optimal integration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDurable construction with exterior-grade Baltic birch plywood and sleek black paint finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComes with U-bracket for easy mounting in various installation environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 19.75 x 11.75 x 11.03 inches, Weight: 30 lbs (Net), 36 lbs (Shipping)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePerformance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMax SPL (12 dB Crest Factor): 130 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMax SPL (6 dB Crest Factor): 124 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating Range: 65Hz - 19kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNominal Beamwidth: 120° Horizontal x 60° Vertical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNominal Phase: +15° from ideal high-pass filter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInput Impedance: LF\/HF = 8Ω\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccelerated Life Test: 300W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAccelerated Life Test\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLF\/HF: 49V, 300W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConfiguration\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLF Transducer, Loading: 1 x 8 inch cone, 2 inch voice coil, vented\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHF Transducer, Loading: 1 x 1 inch exit, 1.4 inch voice coil compression driver, horn loaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating Modes: Passive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhysical\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 19.75 x 11.75 x 11.03 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNet Weight: 30 lbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShipping Weight: 36 lbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting Accessories: U-Bracket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInput Connector: NL4 x 2, Barrier Strip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"EAW","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43164930900047,"sku":"MK8126I","price":2092.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0054\/9466\/9382\/files\/eaw_new_mk8126i-black.jpg?v=1749672129","url":"https:\/\/shop.musicredone.com\/products\/eaw-mk8126i-passive-2-way-portable-loudspeaker-black-8","provider":"RedOne Music Canada","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
