K-Array Tornado Series KTL2C 18W Multipurpose 2" Point Source Passive Ceiling Loudspeaker with 4-Pin Phoenix Connector, Single, Black

K-array Tornado KT2 - KT2C miniature sound source is a passive loudspeaker designed for high-quality distributed systems. Housed in a compact aluminum enclosure, the Tornado is suitable for space sensitive and architectural design installations. The Tornados are a turn-key loudspeaker solution; designed as passive speakers, they can be easily converted into self-powered devices by inserting the KA1-T2 12V/24V amplifier module.

In addition to the standard features of the Tornado loudspeakers, the KTL2 and KTL2C have 7 integrated RGB LEDs that can be controlled thanks the wide range of K-array accessories via DMX or by remote. With its ability to effortlessly reproduce speech, music and lighting, it is an excellent choice for fixed applications such as theatre, museum displays, restaurants, portable systems for corporate AV presentations, department stores and in hidden locations such as chancel steps in houses of worship.

Tornados have a proprietary 2" high efficiency drive unit with a neodymium magnet structure and a suspension engineered for maximum linear excursion and minimum residual transducer interference. The cone transducer delivers an impressive maximum peak SPL of 107dB and has a wide operating frequency range from 150 Hz to 18 kHz with very low distortion. The KTL2 and KTL2W come with a wall bracket for fixed installations or surface applications. The KTL2C and KTL2CW come with a ceiling bracket for ceiling mounts. All the components are designed in-house at K-Array Florence based R&D department. They are custom manufactured to their exacting standards and quality control.

Architect Specifications
The miniature passive speaker shall be one of the most compact in the market with a remarkable power, compared with the size. It shall consist of one 2" long-excursion full range cone driver with a neodymium magnet assembly mounted in a a sturdy turned aluminum base. It shell feature also 7 RGB LEDs to provide both sound and lighting. The speaker shall allow settings of two different impedance values, for a higher or lower impedance use (8Ohms / 32Ohms if possible). The loudspeaker shall only be operated by a compatible amplifier with dedicated presets loaded onboard.

The structure of the speaker shall TECHNICAL specifications feature a dedicated fixing bracket or threaded anchor points to be installed on a wall or under a ceiling. The speaker shall be able to be integrated with other units of the same model and, when required, with a suitable subwoofer to extend its frequency range for more demanding applications. The connectors shall be recessed and fitted with two 4-pin Phoenix sockets

The loudspeaker shall have a nominal horizontal dispersion angle of 90deg. and a vertical one of 90deg. in order to avoid unpleasant acoustic reflections from both the ceiling and the floor. The power handling capacity shall be 18WAES. The frequency response (+/- 10dB) measured on axis shall be 150 Hz to 18 kHz with a maximum sound pressure of 107 dB. The light power output shell be at least 300 lumen but no more then 450 lumen. The speaker shall be as invisible as possible and shall be easily integrated in any kind of environments and surfaces. The dimensions (WxHxD) shall not exceed 110 x 75 x 70 mm (4.33" x 2.95" x 2.76") and shall weigh no more than 0.6 kg (1.3 lbs). The loudspeaker shall be the KTL2 or KTL2C by K-array surl.
