MK8196F/2 pp
March 2002
Printed in USA
• System includes an 8-in woofer and a 1-in exit/1.5-in voice
coil compression driver on a 90° x 60° CD horn
• Internal passive crossover/filter network allows powering
by a single amp channel while smoothing power response
• Beamwidth optimized crossover points eliminate off-axis
voids through crossover
• User-rotatable horn lets you “rotate the enclosure around
the horn” to mount them vertically or horizontally
The MK8196 two-way loudspeaker system sets the new stan-
dard in installation performance by solving the chronic prob-
lems of compact two-way loudspeakers. Yet it’s size is actual-
ly smaller than many of the compact two-ways it outperforms.
The HF horn loading the 1-in exit/38mm voice coil compres-
sion driver is larger than most traditional compact two-way
horns. This extends pattern control lower into the midrange
than would otherwise be possible and allows the horn’s pat-
tern to overlap the woofer’s pattern in the critcal crossover
area.
Advanced beamwidth matching crossover point selection tran-
sitions between the subsystems exactly where the HF horn’s
90° (h) x 60° (v) coverage pattern matches the woofer’s pat-
tern. This eliminates the beamwidth mismatch that creates off-
axis voids in the crossover area of traditional two-way systems.
The internal passive crossover/filter network uses complex,
asymmetrical slopes to integrate the subsystems and goes
beyond merely dividing the signal to perform critical equal-
ization functions.

The MK8196 provides a high performance solution to applica-
tions requiring the use of an ultra-compact two-way loud-
speaker system. Ideally suited to distributed approaches,
these small, powerful sytems mount easily in a variety of loca-
tions and provide consistent coverage over the entire fre-
quency range.
MK Series HF horns feature a square flange allowing the user
to rotate them 90°. This way, the systems can be mounted
horizontally while maintaining the desired coverage pattern.
And the comprehensive system of 3/8”-16 threaded mount-
ing/suspension points permit the enclosures in any orientation.
