PHYSICAL

• Compact three-way system for medium-sized dance clubs
• Very effective as a high-output DJ booth monitor
• Dual 12-in woofers maximize LF output
• 8-in midrange cone, sealed
• Horn-loaded 1-in exit/1.75-in voice coil HF compression 

driver

• Cutaway rear corner directs coverage down from its position 

close to a ceiling

The DC4 is engineered for use in permanent installations. The
system includes dual 12-in woofers in an optimally vented
enclosure, an 8-in midrange cone in a sealed subenclosure and
a 1-in exit/1.75-in voice coil high frequency compression
driver on a 90° (h) x 40° (v) dispersion constant directivity
horn. 

A complex asymmetrical internal passive crossover/filter net-
work provides MF/HF subsystem integration. An MX Series
Close Coupled Processor™ should integrate the LF and MF/HF
subsystems.

The DC4 compact, bi-amplified three-way dance club system
provides high output, high definition reinforcement for medi-
um sized clubs. Overall design is robust to ensure reliability in
the face of continuous peak output operation.

The DC4 is designed for overhead mounting in a horizontal
configuration to cover medium sized dance floors or other
spaces within clubs. Its cutaway upper-rear corner allows it to
tuck up next to the ceiling while angling its coverage down
20°. The enclosure includes balance-optimized threaded
mounting points. 

Like all EAW products, it can be special ordered in virtually
any color to match a specific décor. Six year warranty.
