2.1 E8 Product description
The E8 is a high performance multipurpose loudspeaker employing
an integrated 8"/1" exit coaxial driver design with neodymium
magnet and constant directivity horn loading. The horn with its 90°
x 50° (hor. x vert.) dispersion pattern can easily be rotated
through 90° providing a 50° x 90° pattern without the use of
tools.
The E8 is a two-way design with a built-in passive crossover
network. Its frequency response extends from 62 Hz to 18 kHz.
The enclosure is constructed from polyurethane integral hard foam
with an impact resistant paint finish. The cabinet shape allows use
either in a vertical or horizontal orientation as well as deployment
as a stage monitor. The front of the loudspeaker cabinet is
protected by a rigid metal grill backed by an acoustically
transparent foam.
The loudspeaker cabinet incorporates a handle, a pole mount
socket and six M10 threaded inserts to connect to different rigging
accessories like Z5350 Flying bracket E8, Z5020 Flying adapter
02, Z5025 Flying adapter 03 or a Z5351 Horizontal bracket E8.
An additional M10 thread in the rear panel can be used to
connect a safety wire.
The connector panel of the E8 cabinet is recessed and tilted to
allow deployment as a stage monitor. With the panel on the right
hand side, the cabinet is oriented correctly.
Cabinet options
The special color (SC) version of the cabinet is available in all
colors of the RAL color table. It comes without high stand flange
and handles. The respective openings of the cabinet are covered
by plates in cabinet color. The connector type is NL4.
2.2 Connections
The cabinet is fitted with NLT4 F/M connectors. All four pins of
both connectors are wired in parallel. The cabinet uses the pin
assignments 1+/1–. Pins 2+/2– are designated to actively driven
subwoofers. Using one connector as the input, the second
connector allows for direct connection to a second cabinet.
