Product OverviewThe K-Array Firenze KH7P I is a passive steerable line array speaker built for large venues, touring productions, and permanent installations where high output must come from a discreet footprint. This digitally steerable slim line array element delivers 148 dB peak SPL from a stainless steel enclosure only 200 mm deep, making it one of the most space-efficient large-format line array solutions available for commercial AV integration. Paired with K-array's Kommander-KA208LIVE amplifier operating in EBS-mode, the KH7P I adds Electronic Beam Steering to its mechanically adjustable horn coverage, so integrators can aim sound precisely at the audience and away from reflective surfaces. It is a strong fit for auditoriums, houses of worship, and large-venue line array installation projects that demand concert-grade output without visual intrusion.Product DescriptionAt the heart of the Firenze KH7P I are four coaxial 12-inch neodymium magnet drivers with 3-inch voice coils, each integrating a compression driver with a 2-inch voice coil. This coaxial straight-line array arrangement produces a coherent wavefront with even coverage throughout the venue and a frequency response of 90 Hz to 18 kHz (-6 dB) with the dedicated preset. Rated power handling is 4x 2500 W across four discrete 8-ohm channels, which maps directly to the four output channels of the recommended Kommander-KA208LIVE amplifier.Coverage is mechanically configurable at 100° by 30° (or rotated to 30° by 100°), letting the same cabinet serve wide-audience throw or narrow corridor coverage depending on orientation. Because the KH7P I is passive, all DSP — including FIR-based digital beam steering, gain, delay, and parametric filtering — is handled in the partnering amplifier and managed remotely over Ethernet with K-array's PC software. The IP53-rated stainless steel chassis suits both indoor and weather-protected outdoor positions, and a full range of joining and rigging accessories supports vertical and horizontal cluster arrays for touring or fixed deployment.

Electronic Beam Steering Ready — When driven by the Kommander-KA208LIVE in EBS-mode, the array's vertical dispersion can be shaped digitally so coverage lands on seats instead of walls and ceilings. Adjustable Mechanical Coverage — The 100° by 30° horn geometry can be oriented for wide or narrow emission, giving integrators two coverage patterns from one SKU. Ultra-Slim Stainless Steel Enclosure — At 1170 x 350 x 200 mm, the cabinet blends into architecture and proscenium lines where conventional line arrays would dominate sightlines. Four Discrete 8-Ohm Channels — Per-driver amplifier channels enable the individual transducer control required for true digital steering of the wavefront. Remote Monitoring and Control — Dedicated PC software over Ethernet provides gain, delay, filtering, and level/temperature monitoring through the system amplifier. IP53 Environmental Rating — Dust and spray protection allows installation in semi-exposed venue positions without additional weather housings. Flexible Rigging System — Dedicated joining and hanging accessories support vertical line arrays and horizontal clusters for both touring and installed applications.

The KH7P I has no built-in DSP, so beam steering, presets, delay, and filtering are all executed in the amplifier, with the speaker connected via CA-COM IN and LINK ports.How does beam steering work on a passive speaker?Each of the four coaxial drivers is wired to a discrete 8-ohm amplifier channel. The KA208LIVE applies FIR filtering per channel to shape the vertical wavefront digitally, on top of the cabinet's mechanically selectable 100° by 30° horn coverage.Can the KH7P I be arrayed in clusters?Yes. K-array offers dedicated joining and rigging accessories for vertical line arrays and horizontal clusters, supporting both flown touring configurations and fixed installation mounting.Is the KH7P I suitable for semi-outdoor installation?The stainless steel enclosure carries an IP53 rating, protecting against dust and water spray. It is appropriate for covered outdoor and semi-exposed positions; fully exposed installations should be reviewed with our design team.Does Creation Networks help with system design and integration?Yes. Our commercial AV team can specify amplification, rigging, DSP configuration, and room coverage modeling for your project. Contact us through creationnetworks.net for a system consultation and project pricing.What warranty applies to this product?The Firenze KH7P I is covered by K-array's manufacturer warranty, and Creation Networks supports the claim process for all products purchased through our store.
