- Class D two channel amplifier 250 W LF + 100 W HF
- One 8" loudspeaker with neodymium magnet assembly
- New M-60N Neodymium compression driver
- SERPIS BPS-191 high frequency plane wave generator
- Captive rigging system integrated in the cabinet design
Equipped with the latest in Class D power amplification and digital signal processing, the amplifier offers 250 W for the low frequency loudspeaker and 100 W for the high frequency driver. A two position HF EQ compensation switch which adjusts the high frequency response for arrays of 4 or 8 or more units is located on the rear panel.
The Aero 8A incorporates the D.A.S. 8MN, 8" low frequency transducer. The 8MN employs a 62 mm (2.5") voice coil and neodymium magnet motor assembly. High frequency reproduction relies on the exceptional characteristics of the new M-60N neodymium compression driver. Each motor system is attached to a new BPS-191 waveguide-horn assembly.
The extremely compact enclosure is manufactured using birch plywood protected with the durable Iso-Flex black paint. The Aero 8A´s 5º trapezoidal shape and rear located splay angle adjusters keep the front spacing between adjacent elements the same, providing the array with a "seamless" front baffle, for improved array performance. The captive rigging system splay angles range from 0º to 10º and can be adjusted in 1º increments allowing a wide range of column curvatures to be accomplished.
