Product Overview
The Biamp Community W2-2W8T is a two-way 8-inch wide-coverage installation loudspeaker with a true 120-degree horizontal pattern and a factory-installed 200W autoformer for 70V/100V lines. It is built for sound reinforcement, down-fill, under-balcony fill, and monitoring. This black loudspeaker suits houses of worship, auditoriums, and multi-purpose venues needing wide, even coverage. Primary keyword: wide-coverage installation loudspeaker; long-tail: 120-degree under-balcony fill speaker, 70V/100V 2-way install loudspeaker, down-fill loudspeaker.
Product Description
The W2-2W8T uses a unique molded Super-V configuration of its LF drivers with a centrally placed 120-degree HF pattern-control horn to provide uniform coverage over a wide bandwidth, preventing the horizontal pattern collapse common in conventional under-balcony designs, especially in the voice range. A factory-installed 200W autoformer supports 70V/100V distributed lines with selectable taps at 200, 100, 50, and 25 watts. The enclosure and faceplate are multi-layer glass composite for high structural strength, with a three-layer WeatherStop grille, stainless-steel and powder-coated aluminum hardware, and an included stainless-steel mounting yoke. It is finished in black.
