Ultra-light high-power 12” subwoofer

KMT12 is much more than a standard 12” powered subwoofer. The amplifier mounted on board is class D, delivering 2 x 1000 W at 8 Ohm.

A smart 12″ subwoofer with the power of a 2-channel, 1000 W @ 8Ω Class D amplifier, the Thunder-KMT12 I allows many different configurations in combination with passive K-array loudspeakers like mid-high speakers, entire column line arrays or other passive sub to reinforce the mid-low frequencies.

Although it is the smallest of the line, the Thunder-KMT12 I has the same computing power as the other Thunder subwoofers for reproducing sound, rending it ideal for applications that require a small visual footprint with a large sound.

The Thunder line gives you all the boom with bass you need for installation applications. With both passive and active models in various sizes starting from 12” to 21” and dual 18”, the Thunder line is a high performance sub-bass system featuring a woofer with magnet structure and suspension engineered for maximum linear excursion.

The subwoofers – KMT12P, KMT12, KMT18P, KMT18, KMT21P KMT21, KMT218 and KMT218P – contain a unique four-corner port configuration which provides symmetrical back loading to the speakers for extended bass response with very low distortion and provides incredible structural strength to the cabinet despite its light weight.

Pocket handles and an M20 thread mount position for attaching mid-high speakers make the subwoofers convenient to use and ideal for applications in theaters, concert halls, and restaurant installations.

More than just powered subwoofers, our active models depart from traditional subs in that their “smart” design puts electronics as the central component, transforming the mid-low frequency loudspeaker into a proper tool for the management and processing of the audio signal. These multi-tasking subwoofers include an integrated touch screen providing intuitive control over the main DSP functions, two balanced analog line level inputs and a two-channel AES/EBU digital input, and an onboard Class D amplifier. It’s possible to connect a wide array of passive speakers including mid-high models or additional passive subwoofers.

To optimize performance, the onboard DSP includes up to 40 programmable presets. The first 8 have been designed by K-array, the additional 32 slots can be used to create, save, and store personal presets using the K-framework software. And with the K-dante accessory, the subwoofers are able to connect to the Dante network for audio and data transmissions.

Unique Performance-to-Size Ratio

K-array active loudspeakers are characterized by a small footprint and unparalleled performance. These discrete solutions provide high sound pressure level and pristine audio making them the ideal choice for both invisible sound reinforcement systems from our Installed Sound line and live events from our Portable Systems line.

Four-Corner Port Configuration

The unique four-corner port configuration provides symmetrical back loading to the speakers, for extended bass response with very low distortion. The port configuration also provides incredible structural strength to the cabinet, despite its light weight.

Lightweight

We created a portfolio complete with lightweight products that are easy to transportation and quick to setup optimizing logistics, space, labour costs and time. Boasting an incredible size-to-weight ratio, the most important factors of our audio solutions’ weight are design methods, materials and manufacturing technology. Our strategy consists of utilizing minimal components and certain lower-density materials like aluminium and steel.

Colour Customizable

We have the ability to customize your project by colour matching your system to any RAL colour to help you to better integrate the speakers into a wide variety of venues. RAL is used for defining standard colors for paint and coatings and is the most popular Central European colour standard used today.

Integrated DSP

Built-in DSP allows for fine tuning of every single sonic parameter of the loudspeaker, providing the sound engineer the highest control on overall performance and fine granularity in system configuration, including processing, matrix and delays.
