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.”

The new Audix A127 Omnidirectional Metal Film Condenser Microphone is now shipping. The culmination of years of research and development, the A127 delivers unmatched audio capture for professional studio recording, broadcast, film and sound design.

CONSISTENT AND RELIABLE PERFORMANCE

The A127 features a reference-grade capsule (Type 1 IEC 61094-4 compliant) with a precision-tensioned metal film diaphragm, providing consistent and reliable performance, even in the most demanding environments.

The half-inch size of the diaphragm represents the “sweet spot” for acoustic sound capture, which is why it has become the standard for acoustic measurement. The ultrathin, 3-micron metal film diaphragm provides excellent transient response and a level of detail and realism simply not attainable with conventional diaphragm materials.
