Biamp 920-00334-10000 Desono DX-S8-UB-B Black

Product Overview

The Biamp Desono DX-S8-UB in black is an 8-inch, two-way high-output coaxial surface-mount loudspeaker rated for indoor and direct outdoor exposure. It delivers high efficiency, high output, and low distortion for distributed audio in demanding commercial spaces, and its IP54 weather-resistant enclosure lets it move from a lobby to a courtyard without changing platforms. The included U-Bracket with ClickPlug provides theft- and tamper-resistant mounting in either orientation. A built-in 70V/100V autoformer and low-impedance input give integrators flexibility across system designs.

Product Description

The DX-S8-UB shares the same components and voicing as the Desono DX ceiling loudspeakers, so surface and ceiling coverage match across a building. An 8-inch low-frequency driver and a 1.25-inch exit compression driver mounted coaxially provide uniform coverage with strong output and extended bass, and the speaker is Zoom Certified for conferencing use. The built-in autoformer offers 70V taps of 120W, 60W, 30W, and 15W and 100V taps of 120W, 60W, and 30W, plus a low-impedance mode for high-fidelity zones. The U-Bracket version mounts low-profile in vertical or horizontal orientation, rotates 200 degrees on the bracket, and includes the ClickPlug with an integrated gland nut for weather-resistant terminations. A lever-actuated four-position terminal block with pass-through simplifies daisy-chained wiring. The enclosure carries an IP54 environmental rating and is ETL listed to UL 1480A.
