Dispersion 80°
SPLmax 139 dB
Weight 20 kg / 44 lb
Product description
The compact Y8 line array loudspeaker is designed for use in vertical
columns. The 2-way passive design features two 8” drivers in a dipole
arrangement and a centrally mounted 1.4” compression driver with a wave
transformer. Sophisticated horn geometry combined with the advanced
bass-reflex port design delivers full bandwidth capabilities with an extended
LF output. These high performance line array modules offer 80° horizontal
directivity controlled down to 500 Hz. The mechanical and acoustical
design enables vertical arrays of up to twenty four loudspeakers with
vertical splay angles from 0° to 14° with a 1° resolution. It can be used in
columns of purely Y8 loudspeakers or combined with Y12 and/or Y-SUB
cabinets. The loudspeaker cabinet is constructed from marine plywood and
has an impact and weather protected PCP (Polyurea Cabinet Protection)
finish. The front of the loudspeaker cabinet is protected by a rigid metal grill
backed by an acoustically transparent foam. Each side panel incorporates
a handle while two additional recessed grips are provided at the rear. Three
point rigging hardware is integrated into the loudspeaker enclosure.

the subwoofer during transit.
The Y-SUB is an actively driven cardioid subwoofer powered by a single
amplifier channel. It houses two long excursion neodymium drivers in an
integrated cardioid setup, an 18” driver in a bass-reflex chamber facing to
the front and a 12” driver in a two chamber bandpass design radiating
towards the rear. The cardioid dispersion pattern resulting from this
arrangement avoids the distribution of energy behind the system, providing
the greatest accuracy of low frequency reproduction and reducing the
energy dispersed into unwanted areas. The Y-SUB is fitted with three point
rigging hardware and can be flown in a column of purely Y subwoofers, at
the top of a Y array or used in a ground stacked setup. The cabinet is
constructed from marine plywood and has an impact and weather protected
PCP (Polyurea Cabinet Protection) finish. The front of the loudspeaker
cabinet is protected by a rigid metal grill backed by an acoustically
transparent foam, whilst the side panels incorporate two handles with four
wheels mounted to the rear. An optional transport lid protects the front of
the subwoofer during transit.
