DVS 8-WH
Designed to excel in a wide variety of sound reinforcement applications, the full range DVS 8-WH is an ultra-compact 280-Watt surface mount loudspeaker that provides both exceptional value and inspiring acoustic performance. The DVS 8-WH is ideally suited for stereo or mono background/foreground music applications in theme parks, hotels, restaurants and bars, retail stores, as well as corporate AV, residential developments, and houses of worship.
Superb Point-Source Performance
DVS 8-WH’s point-source design comprises a 200 mm (8.00”) mid bass driver with a coaxially mounted 19 mm (0.75") high frequency section mounted in a stylish injection moulded ABS enclosure. Certified for water and dust ingress protection to IP64 standard, the DVS 8-WH is an exceptional choice for challenging environments such as indoor swimming pools, saunas, or work areas with unusually high levels of dust or moisture, and outdoor applications where weather conditions are moderate.
Attractive and Easy to Install
The highly durable and scuff resistant ABS enclosure features a white painted finish, and comes with an aesthetically pleasing aluminium grille. Installation is quick and easy, thanks to the included colour-matched steel mounting bracket and finger-adjustable hardware on the enclosure top and bottom. Phoenix connectors for input and link output are provided for convenience.
