KY102

1. INTRoDUCTIoN

The K-array KY102 is a passive speaker system comprised of eight 4" neodymium magnet transducers
housed in an elegant and sturdy stainless steel frame. The vertical dispersion pattern can be switched
for wide or narrow coverage, allowing for a great variety of applications. The eight closely-spaced
cone drivers boast true line array characteristics, such as phase coherence, low distortion and focused
listening in both the near field and at a distance from the speaker.
A variety of rigging accessories allows for many linking and hanging options for the KY102 in vertical
and horizontal line array configurations to satisfy many different venue requirements during temporary
events as well as permanent installations.
For easier use and integration with other speakers or amplifiers, the KY102 is equipped with two
different values of impedance (8Ω – 32Ω). The KY102 is able to reproduce the whole vocal frequency
range with high intelligibility, starting from 90 Hz. Integrating one of K-array's powered subwoofers
(KMT18, KMT21, KMT218), configured with specific presets for the KY102, assures excellent coverage of
the entire musical frequency range.
All KY102 components are designed by the K-array R&D Department and custom-made under the
K-array Quality Control System.
