1. INTRODUCTION
KN6 and KN10S are stainless steel, self-powered, 2-way full range speaker systems. Tey
are compact and powerful with multiple D class amplier channels dedicated to each of their
transducer elements. KN6 has a wide 130° vertical coverage pattern and the ability to
select the horizontal coverage from 10° to 130°, making it usable as both a point source and
as a line array element.
The system is ideal for medium throw applications in theatres, concert halls, houses of worship
and AV installations. KN6 uses two 6” Neodymium cone speakers with 2.5” voice coils for
low-mid frequencies. The mid-high frequency section employs three 1” voice coil Neodymium
compression drivers. The transducers are optimized with on-board DSP pre-sets. KN6 is
designed to easily integrate with KN10s selfpowered subwoofer.
The KN10s subwoofer module employs two 10” transducers with Neodymium magnet
structure and suspensions engineered for maximum linear excursion.
All KN6 and KN10S components are designed by the K-array R&D department and custom
made under the K-array quality control system.
