SERIES DESCRIPTION

Conceived and manufactured to give clients a flexible and easy to use product introduction to Outline, the new Ki series brings the engineering quality, distinctive lines and audio performance that have made the Italian brand an international reference point in sound reinforcement. Both Ki10 and Ki12’s compact dimensions, audio performance and thoughtful design make them ideal solutions for a wide variety of permanently installed applications. Ki10 and Ki12 are equipped with 10” and 12” LF transducers respectively, both of which feature a 2.5” voice coil for high power and reliability. A 1.5” diaphragm compression driver provides the HF reproduction. The Outline-designed passive crossover networks fitted to both models also make them very efficient in terms of amplifier channels and external control.
Both products also feature another Outline first, a brand new design of rotatable waveguide. Many comparable loudspeakers offer this facility but Outline’s Ki-series are the first to allow the installer to quickly and easily rotate the entire horn and HF section without any disassembly of the loudspeaker. This piece of original engineering offers a real advantage in small rooms or those with low headroom, as the HF horn can be quickly adjusted to ensure the required dispersion (100° x 50° or 50° x 100°) regardless of the orientation of the cabinet.

OPERATION (ROTATABLE HORN)

It is possible to rotate the Ki’s horn without removing the front grille. Just unlock the four screws and spin the wheel using the two openings on the front of the speaker. Then retighten the screws to lock the horn in the new position. Please note that when the horn is in vertical position it is shown through four dedicated red dots in the openings (one on each side as shown in the figure below).

OVERALL DIMENSIONS

OVERALL DIMENSIONS

This series offers many rigging possibilities: eighteen M8 points are available for multiple purposes. The loudspeaker can be rigged using the appropriate wall mount accessories (WME75 for Ki10, WHH100-B, TH100-B and STAND-WALL1 for both). Outline recommends to always use a secondary safety device when the system are rigged. The loudspeaker can also be mounted directly on a 35 mm speaker stand.

AMPLIFIER CONNECTION

Ki10 and Ki12 are using a woofer and a compression driver with a passive cross-over. They require just one amplification channel and the connections are available on two NL4 speakON connectors.Both connectors are in parallel to facilitate wiring on portable and installed systems. The system shall be used with the suggested Outline amplifier and DSP preset.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Outline carries out on-going research for product improvement. New materials, manufacturing methods and design upgrades are introduced to existing products without prior notice as a routine result of this philosophy. For this reason, any current Outline product may differ in some aspect from its description, but will always equal or exceed the original design specifications unless otherwise stated.
