KV2 AUDIO K-RIG
What is it? A speaker rig embracing KV2’s point source technology developed for its ES range.
Details: Designed to be quickly stacked on the ground, the K-RIG plug ‘n’ play system is said to be easy to set up, even by those with limited technical knowledge. According to KV2, the K-RIG delivers both high output and clarity to provide great coverage and projection. The basic system combines the KT2.0 dedicated mid/high module
with a horn-loaded 12” speaker and large diaphragm 2.5” compression driver on an 80˚ x 40˚ horn. It operates over a frequency range of 180Hz to 20kHz and boasts a peak output SPL of 137dB. The KT2.15 double 15” bass speaker operates from 180Hz down and delivers a peak SPL of 133dB. For applications where maximum bass output is required, a second KT2.15 can be added per side or a KT1.18 single 18” sub for extended low-end response.
And another thing: As the KT2.0 and KT2.15 must be used
together for full frequency response
reproduction, flying of the system is not recommended.
