The EAW MKD1294-WP BLACK is a 1200W passive 2-way installation loudspeaker that provides high-output performance, exceptional fidelity, and precise broadband pattern control. As part of the MKD series, the MKD1294-WP BLACK is engineered for professional audio environments where sound quality and consistency are critical. Whether in large venues like stadiums or smaller spaces such as music clubs, this speaker excels in providing powerful, clear sound. It features dual 12-inch low-frequency transducers, a 2-inch exit, 4-inch voice coil compression midrange driver, and a 2-inch exit, 2.5-inch voice coil compression high-frequency driver, ensuring deep, full-range sound. The speaker’s black finish is designed for both functionality and aesthetic integration, making it an ideal solution for a wide range of professional applications.

The MKD1294-WP BLACK is built on EAW’s long-standing tradition of delivering exceptional installation loudspeakers, developed in partnership with consultants and sound system integrators worldwide. The speaker utilizes core design technologies from the QX series, including spaced low-frequency transducers centered around a large-format, rotatable horn. This design allows for precise broadband pattern control and ensures optimal sound dispersion. Through the use of EAW’s beamwidth-matched crossover technology, the acoustically advanced transducers are capable of being driven an octave lower than standard drivers, providing enhanced low-frequency response and clearer overall sound. The MKD1294-WP BLACK offers a nominal beamwidth of 90 horizontal by 45 vertical, providing consistent coverage across a wide area. With a maximum SPL of 145 dB and a flat SPL of 139 dB, the MKD1294-WP BLACK can produce high-output sound that fills large spaces while maintaining clarity and detail. The speaker operates across a frequency range of 47Hz to 20kHz, ensuring full-range performance with exceptional fidelity.

Designed for ease of installation, the MKD1294-WP BLACK features a durable Baltic birch enclosure with 12 M10 mounting points for secure rigging. Whether mounted horizontally or vertically using optional U-brackets or M10 eyebolts, the speaker offers flexibility in setup and integration. The MKD1294-WP BLACK also offers weather protection options, making it ideal for outdoor installations or environments exposed to the elements. The speaker’s custom color options and gently curved front allow it to blend seamlessly into visually sensitive environments. Additionally, the MKD1294-WP BLACK supports both passive and bi-amp operating modes, providing the flexibility needed to optimize performance based on the specific needs of any installation. Whether used for temporary setups or permanent installations, the MKD1294-WP BLACK is a versatile, high-performance solution for professional sound reinforcement.
