CV8
8" Active, 1400W, Two-way Full-Range Loudspeaker with DSP
Features
Compact and lightweight, the CV8 active loudspeakers provide a rich, extended low-end, and natural high-frequency extension in a compact, durable enclosure. Backed by a 700W RMS Class D (Bi-amp) amplifier and enhanced with easy-to-use digital tuning functions, the CV8 gives you all the power and tools you need for both mobile and installed sound. The combination of a 1” exit (1.35” VC) compression driver, 15" woofer, and a constant directivity waveguide produce coherent 90° x 60° coverage for the listening area with up to 124 dB SPL, distortion-free sound. Ideal for use as a satellite (with subwoofer), stage monitor, or flown, the CV8 blends high performance and reliability in a compact package. Built specifically for live sound applications, it also features multiple rigging points for fixed installation. The CV series’ built-in DSP processing system is perfectly tuned for each model, delivering absolute clarity and deep, powerful bass response. The rugged all-wood cabinet is easy to carry and secure to install on a pole-, flown-, wall-, or truss-mounted using the dedicated rigging points available

Simple Customization.
All CV Series loudspeakers are equipped with an easy-to-use signal processor that makes it simple to customize your loudspeakers with the push of a button. Presets customize the CV Series' response for use in live sound, club, and speech applications. Treble and bass controls let you boost or cut by 10 dB to compensate for room anomalies. Location presets let you optimize performance for pole-mount, bracket, and monitor applications.
Class D Amplifier and Flexible Inputs.
All CV series full-range loudspeakers offer a choice of inputs that can be used for a variety of sources. You get one combo XLR mic/TRS line input, each with a high-quality microphone preamplifier, independent gain control, and MIC / LINE switch. The CV12 and CV15 models include an additional XLR MIC / LINE balanced input. These signals can be sent to other CV series active loudspeakers via the XLR Mix output lets you send pass the signals to other CV series loudspeakers.
Multi-position mounting and rigging
CV series full-range cabinets can be mounted in several ways, providing tremendous versatility. The multi-angle enclosure sports nonskid rubber feet on the bottom for upright front-of-house use and nonskid rubber feet on one side for stage monitor applications. Rig the speaker using M10 fly points or ground-stack it for portable applications. Mount it on a tripod or atop a CV series subwoofer using an optional sub pole. The integrated dual-position pole mount lets you aim the speaker level or at a 7.5˚ downward tilt.
