Product OverviewThe K-Array Anakonda KAN200 is a flexible line array speaker that bends around curved walls, columns, balcony rails, and irregular architecture where a conventional speaker cabinet cannot be installed. Each 2-meter element houses 8 one-inch neodymium drivers in an articulated PVC and Neoprene body, delivering 150 W AES power handling, 102 dB peak SPL, and a controlled 140-degree by 10-degree coverage pattern suited to speech reinforcement and distributed audio systems. The high 64-ohm impedance lets integrators chain multiple elements on a single amplifier channel, forming continuous sound lines tens of meters long. It is a practical solution for houses of worship, auditoriums, and government spaces where intelligibility matters but the speaker must stay nearly invisible.Product DescriptionThe KAN200 is the original 150 W, 64-ohm member of K-array's Anakonda family of flexible loudspeakers, joined by the higher-output KAN200+ (300 W, 32 Ω) and the KAN200+8 (300 W, 8 Ω). Its defining trait is mechanical flexibility: the articulated body snakes along curved surfaces, wraps architectural features, and follows the geometry of heritage interiors where drilling and boxy enclosures are unacceptable. The narrow 10-degree vertical dispersion keeps energy on the audience and off reflective ceilings and floors, improving speech intelligibility in acoustically difficult rooms. An external crossover at 150 Hz (24 dB/oct minimum) is required, and dedicated K-array presets voice the system and pair it with K-array subwoofers for full-range program.Each element carries integrated Speakon NL4 connectors at top and bottom that hide inside the line once modules are joined, so extended runs read as a single slim strip rather than a chain of speakers. The 64-ohm impedance permits long parallel lines on one amplifier channel, and the K-ANLINK adapter extends configurations up to 32 modules — 64 linear meters — across two channels. Every unit ships with wall brackets plus two fabric socks, one black and one white, so the installed color can change in minutes without repainting. The IP55 rating supports covered outdoor terraces and transportation spaces as well as interior work. This listing is the black element; the white KAN200W and the rest of the K-Array collection, including matching subwoofers and amplifiers, are available at Creation Networks.Key Features Flexible 2-Meter Articulated Body — The PVC and Neoprene chassis bends around curves, columns, and irregular surfaces where rigid speaker cabinets cannot be mounted. 8 x 1" Neodymium Drivers — Eight closely spaced cone drivers per element create true line array behavior with controlled, consistent coverage along the entire length. 150 W AES Power Handling — Ample capacity for distributed background and foreground audio, announcements, and front fill duty in speech-critical venues. 64-Ohm Impedance for Long Lines — High impedance allows many elements in parallel on one amplifier channel, simplifying cabling in extended distributed audio installations. Extendable Continuous Sound Line — Elements join end to end into long unbroken lines, and the K-ANLINK adapter extends configurations up to 32 modules and 64 meters across two amplifier channels. Hidden Integrated NL4 Connectors — Speakon connectors at each end disappear into the body of the line once joined, preserving the slim architectural profile. Narrow 10° Vertical Dispersion — Tight vertical control keeps sound on listeners and off reflective surfaces, improving speech intelligibility in reverberant rooms. IP55 Weather Resistance — The sealed construction supports covered outdoor and high-humidity installations in addition to interior work. Two Interchangeable Fabric Socks Included — Black and white covers protect the drivers from dust and let installers switch the visible color in minutes. Wall Brackets Included and Made in Italy — Mounting hardware ships in the box, and every component is produced under K-array's Italian quality control system. Typical Applications House of worship speech reinforcement along curved walls and columns Auditorium under-balcony and perimeter fill Government space announcement and program audio Commercial meeting space and all-hands room distributed coverage Multi-purpose room audio where speakers must stay out of sight Broadcast studio playback and cue zones Technical Specifications Model Anakonda-KAN200, Black Type Flexible line array element speaker Transducers 8 x 1" neodymium cone drivers with 0.75" voice coil Power Handling 150 W (AES); 300 W max Nominal Impedance 64 Ω Frequency Range 150 Hz – 18 kHz (+/-6 dB, with dedicated preset) Sensitivity (1W/1m) 86 dB Max SPL 96 dB continuous / 102 dB peak Coverage Horizontal 140°; Vertical 10° Crossover External required; 150 Hz, 24 dB/oct suggested minimum Connectors 2 x 4-pin Speakon NL4 (1 female, 1 male), integrated Wiring 1+ 1- (signal IN and LINK); 2+ 2- (through) Maximum Line Extension Up to 32 modules / 64 m with K-ANLINK adapter across two amplifier channels IP Rating IP55 Dimensions (W x H x D) Approx. 2 m element; 79.5 x 2.2 x 1.4 in Weight 3.09 lb (1.4 kg) Included Accessories Wall brackets; 1 black and 1 white fabric sock Finish Black (white version: KAN200W) Frequently Asked QuestionsHow does the KAN200 differ from the KAN200+ and KAN200+8?The KAN200 is the original 150 W, 64-ohm element with 8 one-inch drivers. The KAN200+ doubles the driver count to 16 for 300 W at 32 ohms, and the KAN200+8 offers the same 300 W performance at 8 ohms nominal impedance for conventional amplifier compatibility. All three share the flexible 2-meter form factor.How many KAN200 elements can I connect in one line?Thanks to the 64-ohm impedance, multiple elements connect in parallel on a single amplifier channel for long continuous sound lines, and per K-array the K-ANLINK adapter extends configurations up to 32 modules — 64 linear meters — across two amplifier channels.What amplifier and processing does the KAN200 require?K-array publishes dedicated factory presets for its amplifier platforms, and an external crossover is required, with a 150 Hz high-pass at 24 dB per octave as the suggested minimum. Contact Creation Networks for amplifier pairing guidance for your channel count and line length.Does the KAN200 need a subwoofer?For full-range program material, yes. The element covers 150 Hz to 18 kHz, so K-array subwoofers are paired in designs that need low-frequency content. For speech-only systems, it often runs stand-alone above the crossover point.Can the KAN200 be installed outdoors?Yes, in protected outdoor settings. The element carries an IP55 rating, and K-array offers the K-IP65KITB weatherproof protection kit for exposed NL4 connections.What is included in the box?Each KAN200 ships with wall-mount brackets and two fabric socks, one black and one white, so the installed color can be changed without repainting or replacing hardware.What warranty applies to this product?K-array provides a 5-year manufacturer warranty on its loudspeaker products. Contact Creation Networks for system design assistance, AV integration questions, or warranty service coordination.
