The EAW MK5396i-WP WHITE is a high-performance, 800W passive 2-way portable loudspeaker designed to meet the needs of professional sound systems in a wide range of venues. This speaker is part of the MK5300i Series and is perfect for both smaller venues like houses of worship, auditoriums, and corporate A/V systems, as well as larger spaces such as arenas, stadiums, nightclubs, and themed entertainment complexes. The MK5396i-WP WHITE offers excellent coverage and output, ensuring clear and dynamic audio across a wide frequency range.

At the heart of the MK5396i-WP WHITE is a robust 15-inch low-frequency (LF) driver combined with a 3-inch voice coil, 1.4-inch exit compression driver for the high-frequency (HF) range. This configuration provides a broad operating range from 48 Hz to 19 kHz, delivering both deep bass and crisp high-end frequencies. The loudspeaker's 90° x 60° nominal beamwidth ensures even and consistent sound dispersion across the audience area, making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor applications. Its high output capability ensures that it can handle demanding audio environments with ease.

The MK5396i-WP WHITE delivers powerful sound with a maximum SPL of 139 dB, providing calculated axial output limits of 127 dB (average) and 133 dB (peak) for both LF/HF and LF sections. This enables the speaker to produce clear and full-range sound even in larger venues. EAW's beamwidth-matching crossover and filter design further enhance the speaker's performance by delivering consistent power response and eliminating the typical frequency discontinuities found in other two-way loudspeakers.

For added flexibility, the MK5396i-WP WHITE is capable of operating in both single-amp and bi-amp modes. The external signal processing includes a high-pass filter and DSP with 2-way filters, allowing users to fine-tune the speaker's performance based on specific installation requirements. It is also compatible with other MK5300i Series systems and SBK Series subwoofers, providing seamless integration into larger sound systems. The enclosure dimensions for the MK5300i Series are the same, enabling easy installation and mixing of different horn patterns and speaker types.

Constructed from exterior-grade Baltic birch plywood, the MK5396i-WP WHITE is built for durability and exceptional sound quality. The speaker is finished in a wear-resistant textured white paint, ensuring that it looks as professional as it sounds. The powder-coated perforated steel grille provides additional protection without compromising the speaker's acoustic performance. The IP56 rating guarantees that the MK5396i-WP WHITE is dustproof and resistant to water, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor use in demanding environments.

With its impressive power, clarity, and flexibility, the MK5396i-WP WHITE is the perfect solution for a wide variety of professional sound applications. Whether used for primary PA duties in smaller venues or as part of a larger, distributed system in more expansive spaces, the MK5396i-WP WHITE delivers superior audio performance with reliability and durability.
