description

The Owl KW8 is one of the first self powered
audio moving heads including a coaxial
8” transducer and a newly built in camera
tool to allow users to accurately focus their
directivity of sound. This feature bridges the
gap between AV in a revolutionary concept.
The Owl provides up to 500W of power,
120dB of SPL (continuos) and a frequency
range from 60Hz to 19kHz.
It is a perfect solution for a range of
applications including live ‘on stage’
monitoring, theme park installations,
airports, train stations DJ ef fects and
theatre installations however, the flexibility

of the Owl will offer an almost limitless
number of solutions and in some cases
reduce the amount of speakers required for
one installation.
The Owl is part of the K-array concert series
but it was designed to be a completely
different solution for the most ambitious
projects.
The dedicated software gives you the ability
to control the settings, movement, sound
and video together allowing you to create
scenes and setups via DMX, audio balanced
signal and the SDI camera on board.
