MP8 amp

The MP8-amp loudspeaker system is a self-powered system that combines exceptionally accurate reproduction with high SPL output in a very compact multi-purpose enclosure. The MP8-amp uses a proprietary 8 inch cone low frequency driver mounted in a vented enclosure with carrying handles. The high frequency unit is a 2 inch diaphragm high frequency compression driver couple to a in house designed 40°/90°x 60° asymmetrical horn. A unique Active Speaker Output (ASO) allows the user to connect a slave unit called MP8-S to the MP8-amp.

The MP8 comes with a 35mm tube adapter and its multi-angle design allows the user a variety of applications.
