Dynamic yet efficient, the TX8 is a category leader.
This seamless three-way enclosure is capable of extremely high output levels
with low distortion. The large motor 2" high frequency driver utilizes a
titanium diaphragm and is mounted on a custom 60°x40° horn that starts directly
at the driver phasing plug, thus eliminating horn throat 'squeeze'. The
proprietary ultra-light mass 8" midrange driver and wave-guide horn combination
provide loud, crystal clear reproduction throughout the entire midband.
Two low cone mass B&C 15" woofers are mounted in a quasi-horn loaded
configuration resulting in astonishing lowband efficiency. The small footprint
Baltic birch enclosure uses high rigidity bracing and incorporates an extremely
flexible top and bottom ATM Fly-Ware™ flytrack and internal bumper system for
accurate yet cost effective 'flying'.
A specific analog stereo four-way processor (TX8P) has been engineered
and is available for the TX8 to ensure maximum system performance
