DDX8 | 8" Passive Coaxial Full Range Portable Loudspeaker

Where to Buy or Rent

DDX8 is part of the DDX series. Combining the ‘point-source’ benefits of coaxial designs with the consistent coverage of differential dispersion technology, DDX full-range systems project sound evenly front-to-back while exhibiting wide horizontal coverage close to the speaker — delivering ultimate fidelity and impact to all corners of the audience.

Features

Multi-purpose, professional, passive full range systems
Coaxial Differential Dispersion technology achieves ‘point source’ performance and optimum coverage footprint across the audience plane
Compact, multi-angle enclosures for vertical and horizontal orientation and stage monitor use
Drivers can be rotated for vertical or horizontal operation by removing screw-free perforated steel grilles

Applications

Live sound reinforcement and portable systems
Stage monitors and sidefills
Theatre sound
Corporate AV events
Fixed installations in Government, Education, Museums, Hotels and hospitality

The DDX8 is an ultra-compact two-way passive loudspeaker system with an integrated 8” (200mm) LF/1” (25mm) exit HF Coaxial Differential Dispersion driver which can be easily rotated for horizontal or vertical orientation depending on venue design requirements. Its very small size gives no indication of its high output capability.

As a stand-alone loudspeaker, it has a multitude of professional applications — from distributed sound reinforcement, AV events to frontfill/infill and use as a micro stage monitor, as well as fixed installations into in government, education, museums, hotels and hospitality venues.

DDX8 can be supplemented by subwoofers in the SX series and can deliver pristine sound over short and medium throw distances with excellent coverage and consistency. The X8 is constructed from durable plywood, finished with hard wearing black textured coating paint, and fitted with a screw-free steel grille, M8 inserts for a wall bracket and eyebolt suspension, plus a pole mount socket.

Ergonomic handles at the rear of the enclosure make for easy handling while maintaining clean lines.
