For architectural reasons, a visually discreet audio system may be required to integrate seamlessly with the layout without compromising sound quality. We put careful thought into designing a sleek form factor taking into consideration shape, space and function, resulting in a delicate balance of durable materials and advanced technology.

We created a portfolio complete with lightweight products that are easy to transportation and quick to setup optimizing logistics, space, labor 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 aluminum and steel.

Due to its line array characteristics, our microphones featuring Pure Array Technology show a minimal variation of gain with distance. As a result, the distance between the orator and the microphone is not crucial and he is able to move towards or away from the mic freely without strongly affecting the volume or audio quality.

The polar response is cardioid in the vertical plane and very narrow in the horizontal plan, which allows for a wide upright registration, resulting in capturing only the person in front of the microphone regardless of height or standing or sitting.

Composed of closely-spaced, full-range sound sources, our line array elements feature demonstrate pure line array characteristics.

With no drivers dedicated to the high frequencies, no bass reflex or passive radiators dedicated to the low end, there are no crossover points and a perfect phase response is achieved in both the near and far fields.

All the sound sources in the array are identical and perfectly coupled producing a true line array with benefit of having the sound beam radiated by the column very wide on the horizontal plane and very narrow on the vertical plane. The amount of energy sent towards the ceiling and the floor is then minimized greatly improving the intelligibility in highly reverberant venues like houses of worship and conference rooms.

Furthermore, such a focused sound beam is able to cover a long distance uniformly: both the audience located in front of the array and at the back of the venue will experience the same tonal balance without the need of several delay lines.

With no horns and no waveguides, PAT columns can be joined to create longer arrays. The longer the array, the narrower the sound beam and the further the distance that can be covered uniformly.

Dedicated accessories aid in connecting the columns and tilting at an angle, while dedicated stacking and suspending hardware render the installation quick and easy.

Made from stainless steel with the possibility to customize the appearance with fine finishes and an endless spectrum of color choices, K-array’s discreet PAT columns meet the demands of architects, system integrators and rental companies alike who are looking for invisible systems that provide excellent audio quality in sleek form.
