CPD W2

The construction is classic, 2 × 15′′ – and the design of the highest quality.

What makes the CPD W2 special is, on the one hand the high-capacity long-excursion speakers with 100mm voice coil and fiber-reinforced membrane, and on the other hand, the construction of the waveguide for frequencies in the range of 40Hz: the diameter of the bass- reflex openings is particularly large, which results in a high degree of efficiency and low distortion levels due to minimal losses at the vent openings.

The slim format of the CPD W2 makes it especially suitable for applications where little space is available on the stage, or where it must be integrated into a wall niche or a stage- portal.

One CPD W2 with a connecting pole (M20) in between provide a stable base for a CPD 15 and CPD 22 full-range loudspeaker.

The power module of the CPD W2 consists of a switched- mode power supply with Power-Factor-Correction, two powerful Class D amplifiers provide 2.000Wrms (3.5kW peak) to the two 15” chassis.

The digital DSP is equipped with IIR filters that are precisely tuned and measured on the bass driver and its enclosure as a complete system. The filter controls; cross-over modes, frequency curve and limiter.

There are 2 symmetrical inputs provided with XLR3 M+F. When used as a mono subwoofer, with summation of both channels, the stereo signal remains available on the outputs.

Depending on the used MH loudspeaker, the crossover frequency and the correct time alignment can be adjusted. Another special feature is the automatic recognition and changeover of a pending digital audio signal according to AES/EBU standard or using the Ethercon DANTE™ protocol.

Apart from the power switch, the following additional control elements are available: buttons for "input sensitivity" for individual adjustment to the location and the rest of the speaker system, for delay settings in m and ms, various low-pass filters and selection of the digital audio channel. Switching between analogue and digital inputs is automatic. The settings are clearly legible on the display.

Further settings, such as a parametric equalizer, can be downloaded and saved via integrated Ethernet switch by the KS REMOTE software.

The sturdy protective grille extends over the entire front and is largely "invisible" with acoustic foam.

A transport protection cover is available as an accessory.

The surface has a PU coating that can withstand almost any stress. There are 4 large swivel castors on the back for easy transport.

As in all KS AUDIO loudspeakers, the cabinet construction is made of birch muliplex and has a very durable PU coating. The multigrip handles on the sides provide easy handling.

M20 threaded stand flange, stacking feet, a solid speaker grill with foam are further features of this quality product.
