EAW MK5366i - 800W 15-inch Passive 2-Way Portable Loudspeaker with 60 x 60-Degree Coverage in Black Finish

The EAW MK5366i BLACK is an 800W, 15-inch passive 2-way portable loudspeaker that delivers superior sound quality and robust performance for a wide range of audio applications. Designed for both small and large venues, including houses of worship, auditoriums, corporate A/V systems, hotel ballrooms, meeting rooms, stadiums, and themed-entertainment venues, the MK5366i BLACK provides high output and versatile coverage. With its sleek black finish and durable construction, it is ideal for permanent installations or portable setups, offering reliable and powerful sound reproduction in any environment.

At the heart of the MK5366i BLACK is a high-performance 15-inch low-frequency (LF) driver with a 3-inch voice coil, ensuring deep, punchy bass. Paired with a 1.4-inch exit, 3-inch voice coil compression driver for high frequencies, the speaker provides clear and accurate sound reproduction across the frequency range. The carefully designed horn, with its 60° x 60° nominal beamwidth, ensures that sound is evenly distributed across the listening area, minimizing acoustic anomalies and delivering consistent audio performance. Whether used for front-of-house applications or as a distributed speaker for fill purposes, the MK5366i BLACK offers reliable, high-fidelity output.

The MK5366i BLACK operates within a frequency range of 48 Hz to 17 kHz, providing a balanced and detailed sound profile suitable for both vocals and instruments. Its sensitivity of 98 dB (LF/HF) ensures efficient power usage, enabling the speaker to perform at high volumes without distortion. The speaker is capable of achieving a maximum SPL of 139 dB, with a peak output of 133 dB. These impressive output levels make it suitable for large venues where powerful sound coverage is needed. With options for both single-amp and bi-amp configurations, the MK5366i BLACK can be optimized for different system setups, providing flexibility for various audio requirements.

EAW's beamwidth-matching crossover and filter design ensure even power response across the crossover region, eliminating any frequency inconsistencies commonly found in other loudspeakers. This design allows for seamless integration with other EAW systems, making the MK5366i BLACK an excellent choice for creating coherent and efficient sound systems. The external signal processing includes a high-pass filter and DSP with 2-way filters, which help shape and refine the sound, providing enhanced clarity and precision in high-output environments.

The MK5366i BLACK is housed in a durable exterior-grade Baltic birch plywood enclosure, offering both strength and portability. The powder-coated perforated steel grille protects the internal components while allowing for optimal acoustical performance. The enclosure is designed to withstand the rigors of both indoor and outdoor environments, with the added benefit of a weather-resistant, textured black paint finish that ensures long-lasting durability even in challenging conditions. Whether used indoors or exposed to the elements, the MK5366i BLACK is built to last, making it a reliable choice for a variety of sound reinforcement applications.

With dimensions of 30 x 18.71 x 19.73 inches and a weight of 77 lbs, the MK5366i BLACK offers a solid yet manageable size for transport and installation. The speaker's design and build allow it to be paired with other systems in the MK5300i series or used alongside subwoofers from the SBK Series, creating powerful, cohesive sound arrays. The MK5366i BLACK is backed by a six-year warranty, ensuring peace of mind and long-term reliability for users in demanding environments.
