kiTCURVE12+ is a full range, curved array high
output loudspeaker ideal for speech and music
reproduction. The kiTCURVE12+ is one of Clair
Brothers most versatile full range speakers.
kiTCURVE design technology is rooted in Clair
Brothers CAT (Curved Array Technology). The
kiTCURVE combines the arrayability of the CAT with
the portability and versatility of the kiT Series.
Exceptional intelligibility, high output performance
and durability make the kiTCURVE12+ an excellent
choice for virtually any indoor or outdoor application.
The kiTCURVE12+ has been engineered for optimal
individual performance or as part of a multiple
cabinet system with added flexibility to mount
vertically or horizontally, or on pole mount with
subwoofer base.

The cabinet features a custom OEM 12” transducer
and two 1.4” exit/3” voice coil diameter high
frequency drivers coupled to a 90º H x 15º V
constant curvature, constant directivity horn that
delivers naturally smooth uniform coverage in both
near-field and medium throw applications. Multiple
cabinets may be arrayed, up to 5 high when flown,
to create a seamless vertical coverage of 75°.
The kiTCURVE12+ is powered by an integrated 2
ch. 3200W power amplifier module that includes
internal DSP loudspeaker processing: Xover, EQ
and Limiter. The processing is factory programmed
and provides the user with the choice between
four presets that are specifically designed for
various applications and array configurations.
Amplitude shading of high frequency output for array
applications is integrated into the factory presets.
(See kiT+ Power Module for detailed specifications
on amplifier and DSP modules).
For a cabinet of its size the kiTCURVE12+ offers
extremely efficient low-end response to 51Hz.
As with all Clair Brothers products, the kiTCURVE12+
is constructed of the finest Baltic birch and finished
with a rugged polyurea coating to withstand the
most demanding conditions.The speaker grille is
constructed of high grade 14 gauge perforated
steel with a powder coated finish.
