I have a pair of the commercial version (KP201) that I obtained at a price that would make you weep. I knew they were good but didn't realize just how rugged they were until I used them with an 18" commercial cinema sub to DJ an outdoor wedding reception. Granted I had backwall reinforcement (1/4 space) but the kid at the controls pushed them far beyond what I would have done, basically to rave level out to about 60 feet, and they never skipped a beat nor gave audible signs of thermal compression, let alone blowing any drivers. The groom was thrilled and I was both relieved and mightily impressed.
That actually directly answers a question of mine. I have a pair of kp201s sitting in the basement and I was thinking they might be nice paired with an 18” sub for occasional small to medium live sound duties (definitely not rave levels). Sounds like that is the case
@@lights_camera_coffee For recorded music they should do fine, especially if crossed to the sub at 150hz. For live mic applications I recommend using a compressor to play it safe on transients.
