REV. A 4
1. INTRODUCTION
Vyper KV50 is an ultra-flat passive speaker system comprised of eight 1” neodymium magnet transducers
housed in an elegant and sturdy aluminum chassis. The eight closely spaced cone drivers provide true
line array characteristics - phase coherence, low distortion and focused listening in both the near field and
at a distance from the speaker. A steel bracket accessory provides an ease to mount wall application for
permanent installations. For easier use and integration with other speakers or amplifiers, KV50 allows the
user to select two different values of impedance (16Ω – 64Ω). At 64Ω as many as 16 KV50 speakers can
be powered off a single amplifier channel at 4Ω, which eliminates the need of 70 V amplifiers for wider
distributed installed systems. The KV50 is able to reproduce the whole vocal frequency range with high
intelligibility, starting from 150 Hz. Integrating one of the K-array subwoofers (KU36, KMT12P), powered by a
KA10-10 amplifier set with specific presets optimized for the KV50 assures excellent coverage of the entire
musical frequency range.
All Vyper KV50 components are designed by the K-array R&D department and custom-made under the
K-array quality control system.
