Part of the MKD installation series, the MKD826 WHITE builds on EAW’s longstanding tradition of producing exceptional installation-focused loudspeakers. Developed in collaboration with consultants and sound system integrators worldwide, this speaker delivers high-output performance and precise control over sound coverage. The MKD826 WHITE is equipped with advanced beamwidth-matched crossover technology, enabling the low-frequency transducers to be driven an octave lower than standard drivers, resulting in enhanced low-frequency response and superior clarity. The speaker features a nominal beamwidth of 120 horizontal by 60 vertical, providing even and controlled sound coverage over a wide area. With a maximum SPL of 135 dB (12 dB crest factor) and a flat SPL of 129 dB (6 dB crest factor), the MKD826 WHITE is capable of producing powerful sound without distortion, making it perfect for high-demand environments. The speaker has an operating range from 62Hz to 19kHz, ensuring full-range sound reproduction with exceptional detail.

The MKD826 WHITE is designed for ease of installation, featuring a durable Baltic birch enclosure that ensures both strength and longevity. The speaker includes 12 M10 mounting points for secure rigging, allowing it to be easily installed using optional U-brackets or M10 kits. Whether mounted horizontally or vertically, the MKD826 WHITE can be integrated into a variety of configurations, offering flexible installation options. Additionally, the MKD826 WHITE is equipped with weather protection options, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments. Its small profile and gently curved front design allow for discreet, visually sensitive installations, ensuring that the speaker blends seamlessly into the environment. The speaker also operates in passive mode, simplifying system integration while maintaining high performance.
