PS8 Full-range Loudspeaker
PS8 Loudspeaker features Nexo designed low magnetic emission Neodymium drivers, for use with magnetically-sensitive equipment.
The dispersion, architecture and weight balance of the PS8 Loudspeaker are designed to provide exceptional PA/stage monitor performance from a single product without compromise. Background and foreground music playback applications are equally well-served by the PS8 system.
This flexibility is realized by a proprietary constant directivity asymmetrical dispersion horn, easily configurable (by users) in four positions by 90° rotations. Coupled with the horn's unique progressive horizontal (50° to 100°) and vertical (55°) dispersion, the most suitable pattern can be selected for vertical or horizontal PA usage or wedge monitoring. The PS8's 2-way passive 8Ω design emplopys a single amplifier channel to deliver bi-amped performance for less money, space and complexity.
The PS8 Loudspeaker System is the smallest member of NEXO's acclaimed PS Series. Versatile and compact, while offering full-range output, PS8 loudspeakers are tailored for a wide range of touring and fixed sound reinforcement applications. The PS8 Loudspeaker, and optional LS400 Subwoofer, are designed to work with advanced electronic processors, guaranteeing the highest standards of consistent performance and reliability.

- [a] Response curves & data: Anechoic Far Field above 300Hz, Half- Space radiation below 300Hz.
- [b] Sensitivity & Peak SPL data: these will depend on spectral distribution and crest factor of program material. Measured with band limited Pink Noise. Nominal refers to Voice Decade (300Hz -3kHz), Wideband to the specified ±3dB range. Data are for speaker + processor + recommended amplifier combinations. Peak SPL is at clipping of recommended amplifier.
- [c] Directivity curves & data: obtained by computer treatment on off axis response curves.
