Applications
The K3 is used in touring productions, outdoor festivals, and permanent installations where a compact and lightweight enclosure is required without sacrificing full-range capability. The IP55 rating makes it suitable for exposed outdoor environments. It is commonly deployed as a smaller main hang or as a delay/fill system alongside K1 or K2 arrays.
Frequently asked questions
Is the K3 rated for outdoor use?
Yes. The K3 carries an IP55 rating, providing protection against dust ingress and water jets, making it suitable for outdoor festival and touring use.
How does K3 directivity compare to K2?
Both use PANFLEX to offer 70 degree, 90 degree asymmetric, and 110 degree horizontal patterns. The K3 uses a single 4 inch HF compression driver rather than two 3 inch drivers as in the K2, reflecting its two-way rather than three-way configuration.
What is the weight of the K3?
The K3 weighs 43 kg / 95 lb, making it lighter than the K2 at 56 kg and substantially lighter than the K1 at 106 kg.
