KA-08BNC Loudspeaker

KA-08BNC Loudspeaker: Precision Engineered for True Audio Excellence

Discover the KA-08BNC—a meticulously engineered loudspeaker system where every detail is tuned for uncompromising sonic performance. Designed around premium B&C components and housed in a rigorously crafted enclosure, the KA-08BNC delivers clear, dynamic sound from deep, controlled bass to sparkling, articulate highs.

Innovative Cabinet Architecture

The KA-08BNC is built upon a carefully measured enclosure that boasts a raw internal volume of 1288.3 cubic inches (approximately 0.606 ft³). With every curve and surface optimized in premium Baltic Birch, the cabinet is not only robust and aesthetically refined but also acoustically inert. After accounting for the displacement caused by internal components, the effective volume converges toward the ideal target—ensuring that the acoustic tuning remains precise, predictable, and repeatable.

Advanced Port Tuning for Extended Bass

Central to the KA-08BNC's performance is its engineered port system. A rectangular vent—with a cross-sectional size of 40 mm x 268 mm—has been carefully integrated into the design. Through detailed calculations and field measurements, the port’s physical length is set to approximately 233 mm (after accounting for end corrections) to tune the enclosure at a resonance near 72 Hz. This strategic tuning provides extended bass response while keeping transient performance tight and distortion low, ensuring that every deep note is reproduced with clarity and accuracy.

Superior Component Integration

• B&C 8PS21 Woofer: At the heart of the system is the renowned B&C 8PS21—the 8-inch driver engineered for precision. With specifications optimized for controlled mid-bass performance and a frequency response starting around 70 Hz, it forms the solid foundation of the KA-08BNC.
• DE12 Compression Driver: For the high-frequency band, the DE12 compression driver delivers crisp, articulate treble. Its design, honed over decades of innovation, ensures that the high-end is powerful yet natural, perfectly complementing the low-frequency prowess of the woofer.
• ME10 Wavehorn: Coupled with the DE12 is the ME10 wavehorn, which expertly manages dispersion and smooths the transition across the frequency range. The result is an enveloping sound field that fills every corner of the listening area with rich, detailed audio.

What Sets the KA-08BNC Apart

The KA-08BNC isn’t just another loudspeaker—it’s a fusion of art and scientific precision. Every aspect of its design, from the carefully measured internal volume and port tuning to the selection of world-class B&C drivers, has been optimized for fidelity and performance. Whether you’re in a critical listening environment or a high-energy live sound setting, the KA-08BNC delivers dynamic, immersive sound with an unmistakable signature of quality and innovation.
