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.
