EAW MKC50 - ranked #7 of 12 Compact 5 to 6.5-Inch PA Speakers · Editor's rating 3.6/5

#7 EAW MKC50 eBay

Pros: A 3.3kg coaxial cabinet with wide 110° x 110° coverage and a 121dB rating, small enough to hide in a wall or corner. Vendor Spinorama data gives preference scores of 3.37 standalone and 6.89 with an ideal subwoofer, with listening-window narrow-band deviation of 0.288. Measured bass extension of 103Hz (-3dB).

Cons: Bass reaches only about 103Hz (-3dB), so it needs a subwoofer for anything but speech, and predicted in-room smoothness of 0.469 is modest. It is passive, and the price is high for a 5-inch box.

How it compares: Just above it: EAW MKC60. Just below it: DB Audiotechnik 44S.
