Product Details FP8
FP8 is an ultra-compact point-source loudspeaker for short-throw touring and installation. Its multi-angle enclosure and deployment options suit rental systems, corporate AV, architecture and distributed sound.
With a suitable subwoofer, the loudspeaker supports music playback and portable reinforcement. It can also provide stage monitoring or fill duties within a larger touring or installed system.
The passive two-way coaxial assembly uses a 8-inch low-distortion neodymium LF driver with a 2-inch voice coil. Its 1-inch-exit HF compression driver has a 1.7-inch polymer diaphragm. Published output is 124 dB peak, with 90° horizontal × 70° vertical coverage and horizontal constant-directivity behaviour.
A waveguide inside the magnet structure merges with the specially contoured LF cone to form the HF horn. This avoids an add-on horn obstructing the LF wavefront and reduces the response irregularities it could introduce. The geometry also addresses the high-frequency beaming of conventional through-the-pole coaxial systems.
The driver rotates 90° for portrait or landscape operation. Proprietary quick-release grille latches and captive release clamps allow the driver to be released, turned and secured by hand, making changes of coverage orientation quick.
The textured birch plywood enclosure accepts compatible accessories for yoke, wall and truss mounting. A dual pole socket provides 0° or 15° down-tilt, and twin handles assist handling. A steel grille with triple-layer polyester backing protects the drivers. IP54 resistance requires both speakON positions to be fitted with the specified NLT4FXX connectors.
iKON amplifiers provide the supported integrated power and DSP configuration. VIA amplifiers can be combined with DX4.0, DX0.4 or DX0.6 controllers. DISPLAY 3 provides three-dimensional system prediction before deployment.
