The KF740 line array system is optimized for the widest possible range of touring and installation applications. With output capabilities resembling the much larger KF760 and a footprint and weight similar to the KF730, the KF740 is the ideal solution for a wide variety of applications.
The KF740 delivers the premium, high output, 3-way performance that is the hallmark of the KF Series in an extremely compact and easy-to-use package. Dual 2.5-in voice coil HF compression drivers and dual 8-in Concentric Summation Array (CSA) loaded MF transducers are integrated through a common horn that occupies the entire face of the enclosure. The astounding pattern control offered by this configuration is extended down to 160 Hz as the MF devices are transitioned to a spaced array of four 2.5-in voice coil 10-in woofers. The pair of LF devices integrated within the MF/HF horn combined with the pair of side-mounted devices provides as much as 18 dB of off-axis rejection. EAW Focusing™ delivered via UX series processors precisely transitions from one system subsection to another while maintaining nearly perfect 90°control.
A full KF740 array provides seamless coverage from directly below the array to hundreds of feet in front. The vertical output can be tailored to match the requirements of any space by varying the splay angle as directed by EAW Resolution™ 2. The resultant configuration produces a coherent wave front of extended-range, high fidelity audio over the entire defined coverage area. The versatile KF740 can be integrated above KF730 modules or beneath KF760 modules to extend the reach of the range to any application imaginable. The impressive low frequency output and extension of the KF740 can be further enhanced by the use of the complementary SB2001 subwoofer. The truck-pack friendly KF740 is assembled in the USA with unrivaled construction details including cabinet grade exterior Baltic birch plywood enclosure, wear-resistant textured coating, powder-coated steel grille and extruded structural aluminum rigging.
KF LINE SOURCE VOICING UPDATE Leveraging data and experience from development of Adaptive Systems™ updated Greybox™ processing enhances performance of KF740, incorporating improved equalization, crossover, Focusing™ and limiting parameters for enhanced clarity and tonal balance without physical changes. The latest update also brings EAW DynO™ dynamic optimization (DynO enhancements require EAWPilot v1.2.23 or greater) to the KF740 for increased system protection at high levels, and unprecedented low-frequency headroom. Updated Greyboxes™ are available here.
