d&b Audiotechnik 8S Loudspeaker

The d&b Audiotechnik 8S Loudspeaker’s coaxial design ensures symmetrical dispersion in both horizontal and vertical planes, allowing versatile mounting options. With a frequency response of 70 Hz to 20 kHz, the 8S can function as a standalone full-range system or be paired with subwoofers from the xS-Series.

The enclosure is made from marine plywood with a durable black or white paint finish. The front is protected by a robust metal grille backed by acoustically transparent foam, while M8 threaded inserts are integrated into the top and bottom panels.

The rear panel includes two additional M8 threaded inserts, two NL4 connectors, and a two-pole screw terminal block. The cabinet and most accessories are available in the Special Colour (SC) option, which allows customisation in any RAL colour. The Weather Resistant (WR) option provides an IP54 rating, enabling reliable operation in varying ambient conditions.
