Product Overview
The Tannoy DVS 8 is an ultra-compact 8-inch coaxial surface-mount loudspeaker finished in black and sold as a pair. Built for distributed background and foreground music, it suits both indoor and outdoor commercial AV installations thanks to IP64 weather-resistant construction. With a 6-ohm direct input, it integrates cleanly into low-impedance surface-mount loudspeaker systems in retail, hospitality, and corporate spaces.
Product Description
The DVS 8 is a full-range 280-watt peak surface-mount loudspeaker engineered for sound reinforcement across a wide range of environments. Its 8-inch mineral-loaded polypropylene driver uses a nitrile rubber surround for long-term durability, paired with a 0.75-inch ferrofluid-cooled soft-dome neodymium high-frequency driver for clear, controlled output. The coaxial layout delivers 80-degree constant-directivity dispersion for predictable coverage when speakers are spaced across a room or facade. This non-transformer model runs on a 6-ohm direct input for low-impedance amplifier channels, and all components are rated IP64 for outdoor use. The UV- and weather-resistant UL 94 V-0 ABS enclosure carries a semi-matt black finish, and the included yoke bracket speeds wall or ceiling mounting. Phoenix-type connectors provide input and link output for daisy-chaining across a zone. It carries UL 1480 certification, a 10-year warranty, and is engineered in the U.K. Explore the full Tannoy collection, or step up to the transformer-equipped version, the DVS 8T, for 70V/100V zones.
