It offers exceptional sound clarity and reliability while maintaining a compact and durable form. Featuring IP56 weatherproofing, this model is perfect for outdoor installations where weather resistance is critical, including stadiums, arenas, and themed entertainment complexes. The loudspeaker provides a 90° horizontal by 60° vertical coverage, making it versatile for a wide range of applications, corporate events, and houses of worship to commercial venues that require high-fidelity audio reproduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the standout features of the MK8196zMTPL-WP is its ability to deliver superior sound coverage despite its compact size. The system incorporates a larger-than-usual HF horn loaded with a 1-inch exit, 1.5-inch voice coil compression driver. This design offers extended pattern control, which allows the horn to overlap with the woofer's pattern at the critical crossover point. This alignment eliminates the beamwidth mismatch that is often seen in traditional two-way systems, which can cause off-axis voids. The result is smooth and consistent coverage across the entire frequency range, even in challenging acoustic environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith advanced beamwidth-matching crossover point selection, the MK8196zMTPL-WP ensures that the transitions between the high-frequency horn and the 8-inch woofer are seamless, providing a flat and natural response. The speaker's internal passive crossover\/filter network also contributes to its high-quality performance by using complex, asymmetrical slopes to achieve smoother power response. This allows the speaker to be powered by a single amplifier channel while maintaining equalization functions critical for accurate sound reproduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnother notable feature of the MK8196zMTPL-WP is its user-rotatable horn, which allows the enclosure to be oriented both vertically and horizontally for flexible installation in various settings. This makes it ideal for installations where specific coverage patterns need to be adjusted for optimal sound distribution. Additionally, the loudspeaker can operate in passive mode and is capable of handling a power rating of 300W, with a maximum SPL of 130 dB (12 dB crest factor) and 124 dB (6 dB crest factor), providing performance in large spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MK8196zMTPL-WP is engineered to endure the rigors of professional use, with an exterior-grade Baltic birch plywood construction and a durable black finish that ensures long-term reliability. It also includes mounting accessories such as a U-bracket for secure and easy installation in fixed configurations. The MK8196zMTPL-WP offers the performance and versatility you need to create a high-quality sound experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e300W passive 2-way loudspeaker with 90° horizontal x 60° vertical coverage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8-inch woofer with 2-inch voice coil, vented design for deep, full-range sound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-inch exit, 1.5-inch voice coil compression driver with 120° x 60° CD horn for enhanced pattern control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeamwidth-matched crossover points eliminate off-axis voids and ensure smooth power response\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating range of 65Hz to 19kHz for a full-frequency response\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMax SPL of 130 dB (12 dB crest factor) and 124 dB (6 dB crest factor)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUser-rotatable horn for flexible mounting orientation (vertical or horizontal)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned for 70V\/100V installations with passive operation mode\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDurable IP56-rated enclosure with weather-resistant Baltic birch plywood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 19.75 x 11.75 x 11.03 inches; Net weight: 30 lbs; Shipping weight: 36 lbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes U-bracket mounting accessories for easy installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInput connectors: NL4 x 2, Barrier Strip for versatile connectivity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePerformance\u003c\/h3\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: 65 Hz to 19 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNominal Beamwidth: 90° 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\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAccelerated Life Test\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLF\/HF: 49v\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower Rating: 300W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eConfiguration\u003c\/h3\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\u003ch3\u003ePhysical\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions (HWD): 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":49010287542521,"sku":"MK8196ZMTPL-WP","price":4572.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0746\/5766\/1177\/files\/eaw_new_mk8196z-black-1_a1e793d9-ab0e-4a8d-86d1-63962ff6800d.jpg?v=1788564473","url":"https:\/\/blackoutaudio.com\/products\/eaw-mk8196zmtpl-wp","provider":"Blackout Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
