Leading manufacturer of innovative audio technology, K-array, will return to Amsterdam in November for the 2025 edition of Metstrade. Located on booth #08.340 in the Superyacht Zone, K-array will showcase its growing portfolio of audio solutions for the marine environment. With innovations from across the K-array and KGEAR brands on display at the show, visitors to one of Europe’s largest leisure marine industry events will be able to receive expert advice first-hand and explore K-array’s Italian-made products up close.
“We continue to build on the momentum of the past couple of years at Metstrade and look forward to connecting with the community again this year,” says Lorenzo De Poi, Brand Manager at K-array. “Since last year, we’ve grown our marine portfolio to include two new products from the KGEAR brand: the IP65-rated GH4 and GH8 Marine. This expands possibilities for installers, thanks to the versatile and highly deployable design of the GH-range, products which have already earned a reputation as trusted allies for integrations in design-driven environments worldwide.”
Joining the new GH4 and GH8 Marine offerings, K-array will also highlight the Dolomite, a new standard in portable audio that exemplifies the very best of K-array’s innovative audio technology paired with a sophisticated design tailored for the premium market. Combining high performance and attractive aesthetics, each Dolomite is sold in a kit, including both left and right loudspeakers with an amplifier, making it an ideal choice for on-deck entertainment areas. Marine-grade products from across the refined Kayman, Kobra, Python, Domino and Vyper series, the ultra-compact Lyzard range and the flexible Anakonda line-array solution will also be on display at the show, all of which are available with a specialised marine treatment. To complete the offering, K-array also manufactures marine-grade subwoofers in the form of their compact yet powerful Rumble series.
K-array’s marine-grade products undergo rigorous testing, including exposure to salt haze, ensuring they meet the highest standards for durability and performance. Key treatments include an epoxy-based Cataphoresis treatment for corrosion resistance, the use of nano-powders of Zirconium to enhance coatings and waterproofing measures, ensuring these products maintain their high-quality performance in the face of the atmospheric challenges of the marine environment.
“K-array’s marine-grade products offer a versatile solution for a range of applications at sea, from atmospheric background audio to public address systems or immersive on-board cinema systems,” continues De Poi. “In combination with our highly customisable finishes and our integration-friendly software suite, K-array provides a complete audio ecosystem that can be relied on to deliver the performance and aesthetics demanded by the marine market, from luxury yachts to commercial liners.”
