EAW MK5394i-WP 15in 2-Way Full Range Loudspeaker 90° x 45° Weatherproof (Black)

The EAW MK5394i-WP is an 800W, 15-inch passive 2-way portable loudspeaker designed for high-output performance in both small and large venues. Ideal for various applications, it serves as a main PA element for smaller environments like houses of worship, auditoriums, corporate A/V setups, hotel ballrooms, and meeting rooms. It is also perfect for larger venues, providing distributed or fill sound reinforcement in spaces such as large houses of worship, stadiums, arenas, nightclubs, and themed entertainment venues. With its rugged IP56 weather-resistant rating, the MK5394i-WP offers durability and reliability, even in challenging outdoor environments.

Featuring a high-performance 15-inch low-frequency (LF) driver and a 3-inch voice coil compression driver, this speaker delivers full-range sound reproduction with clarity and power. The MK5394i-WP excels in both deep bass and high-frequency detail, offering a wide operating range from 48 Hz to 16 kHz. The horn-loaded design with a 90° x 45° nominal beamwidth provides even and controlled coverage across large areas, ensuring consistent sound delivery in environments where uniformity is critical.

The MK5394i-WP is capable of producing impressive sound levels, reaching a maximum SPL of 140 dB, with calculated axial output limits of 126 dB (average) and 132 dB (peak). This loudspeaker's high sensitivity of 97 dB (LF/HF) ensures efficient performance even at high volumes, while maintaining clarity and fidelity across the entire frequency range. This speaker delivers crisp and powerful sound in both indoor and outdoor settings.

With its flexible operating modes, the MK5394i-WP offers the option for single-amp or bi-amp configurations, depending on the installation needs. External signal processing options, including a high-pass filter and DSP with 2-way filters, are available to optimize the speaker's performance. This helps ensure a smooth transition between frequency bands and minimizes distortion or gaps in the frequency response. The advanced beamwidth-matching crossover and filter design further enhance the speaker's overall performance, delivering even power response throughout the crossover region.

Constructed with exterior-grade Baltic birch plywood, the MK5394i-WP is designed to withstand the rigors of professional use. The cabinet is finished with a wear-resistant textured black paint, ensuring long-lasting aesthetics and protection against wear and tear. The powder-coated perforated steel grille offers additional protection while allowing for optimal acoustics. The loudspeaker's robust design makes it ideal for both permanent installations and portable use, providing flexibility for different setups.

The MK5394i-WP is designed to integrate with other systems in the EAW MK5300i series. Its height is matched with the MK2300i series, making it easier to create attractive and efficient arrays. This speaker offers exceptional sound quality and output for any professional audio setup. Backed by EAW's six-year warranty, it guarantees long-term reliability and peace of mind for users in demanding environments.
