EAW MK2364i - 600W 12-inch Passive 2-Way Portable Loudspeaker with 60 x 45-Degree Coverage in Black Finish

The EAW MK2364i BLACK is a 600W 12-inch passive 2-way portable loudspeaker, designed to provide high-output, clear sound reinforcement for a wide range of applications. Ideal for smaller venues such as houses of worship, auditoriums, corporate A/V systems, hotel ballrooms, and meeting rooms, it also excels in larger venues, including large houses of worship, arenas, stadiums, nightclubs, and themed entertainment complexes, where distributed or fill coverage is required. With its 60° x 45° coverage pattern, the MK2364i BLACK ensures broad, consistent sound coverage, making it an excellent choice for installations where even sound distribution is critical.

At the heart of the MK2364i BLACK is a 12-inch low-frequency (LF) driver with a 3-inch voice coil, delivering deep, controlled bass that complements the system's high-frequency (HF) output. The HF section is driven by a 1.4-inch exit, 3-inch voice coil compression driver, which is horn-loaded to provide precise, controlled directivity. The speaker's 60° x 45° beamwidth ensures optimal coverage across the entire audience, while the carefully selected horn design maintains consistent directivity throughout the high-frequency passband. The result is clean, high-fidelity output at levels that exceed expectations for a loudspeaker of this size and price.

In both single-amp and bi-amp modes, the MK2364i BLACK offers exceptional performance, with an external signal processor that includes a high-pass filter and DSP with 2-way filters. This allows for optimal system performance and flexibility in various applications. The loudspeaker features EAW's beamwidth-matching crossover and filter design, which delivers smooth, even power response across the crossover region and eliminates the discontinuities that are common in other two-way loudspeakers. This ensures that the MK2364i BLACK maintains consistent sound reproduction throughout its operating range of 65 Hz to 16 kHz.

With a maximum SPL of 141 dB and an average axial output of 123 dB, the MK2364i BLACK is capable of filling small to medium-sized venues with high-impact, intelligible sound. The speaker's calculated axial output limits of 129 dB (peak) for both LF/HF and HF, and 131 dB (peak) for LF, ensure that it can handle high-output scenarios without distortion. The loudspeaker's sensitivity of 95 dB (LF/HF), 97 dB (LF), and 107 dB (HF) guarantees clear, intelligible sound even at low volumes, making it versatile for both speech reinforcement and music applications.

The MK2364i BLACK is housed in a durable, exterior-grade Baltic birch plywood enclosure, ensuring both strength and excellent acoustic performance. The wear-resistant textured black paint finish adds to the speaker's ruggedness, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations. The powder-coated perforated steel grille protects the internal components while allowing optimal sound performance. With dimensions of 30 x 15.54 x 14.75 inches and a weight of 60 lbs, the MK2364i BLACK is portable yet durable enough for permanent installations. It is designed to be used in various configurations, whether mounted on a wall, placed on a stand, or used in a suspended array.
