The THX®-Certified KPT-942-B is a high-performance two-way screen and stage loudspeaker system well suited to medium-sized auditoriums. Based on the proven KPT-904-LF dual 15-inch bass unit it delivers powerful bass from a cabinet just 24 inches deep.
For high output combined with excellent coverage the system uses a KPT-402-HF Tractrix® Horn with a K-1132 two-inch exit titanium compression driver to reproduce middle and high frequencies. The KPT-942-B is also available, using a passive crossover, in a mono-amp configuration called the KPT-942-M.
