L-Acoustics in Marcoussis, France, announces the launch of the Kiva II (price TBA), a new ultra-compact modular line source, adding 6 dB of max SPL versus its predecessor, maximized amplifier density with 16-ohm impedance, and a new rugged enclosure material.
In addition to its ultra-compact format, the Kiva II features L-Acoustics’ Wavefront Sculpture Technology (WST), giving it a long throw capability and delivering even SPL from the front row to the back of the audience. Its coplanar transducer arrangement and new K-shaped coplanar transducer configuration generates a symmetric horizontal coverage of 100 degrees without secondary lobes over the entire frequency range.
Weighing only 31 pounds, the product’s lines and flush-fitted rigging are designed to allow it to fit into any architecture, for installations in performing arts centers and special events that require minimum visual obtrusion, and particularly in L-ISA multi-channel configuration installations.
The Kiva II will be on display during InfoComm16 at the Las Vegas Convention Center at L-Acoustics booth C12116 from June 8 to 10, 2016.
L-Acoustics states that Kiva II will ship in late 2016.
