Eastern Acoustic Works (EAW®) has successfully begun assembling its MKD speaker line in-house at its Whitinsville, Massachusetts headquarters. The MKD Series builds on EAW’s long standing tradition of exceptional installation-focused loudspeakers.

The new dedicated assembly space began operation in November 2020 and has not stopped since, with production of the new MKD1200 Series and customization of existing products, such as the QX and MK lines. With two stations for assembly, the 2,400 square-foot space is in full operation.

“EAW is proud to once again be assembling product in the U.S. and is looking at additional lines that would be a good fit for the new assembly space,” says TJ Smith, president, EAW. “Many of EAW’s products are offered with configurable options, such as multiple horn patterns, rotatable horns and/or transformers all in black, white and weather protected cabinets. Conducting final assembly of these products in Whitinsville allows us to respond to customer demand faster and carry less inventory. Assembly in Massachusetts also saves a significant shipping cost.”
