WCX-8

Weather resistant coaxial cabinet

Compact & versatile, easy to use, easy to install speaker. 8” coaxial speaker offering a coverage of 70º conical dispersion and 126 dB SPL.

The WCX-8 is a two-way coaxial speaker part of the WCX series. The WCX-8 is a compact, modular and powerful cabinet designed for outdoor applicatios. Line transformer optional.

This is a weather resistant speaker, designed to withstand harder weather conditions, where the cabinets are exposed to the elements.

The WCX-8 uses a 8” coaxial speaker (2.5” LF voice coil and 1.75” HF voice coil) offering a coverage of 70º conical dispersion and 126 dB SPL (600 W program).

Weight has been left as low as possible providing easy set ups in fixed installation as well as easy transport. It can also be powered from an external amplifier using the ARK optimised preset.

The enclosure is made from premium grade birch plywood and finished with a polyurea coating for longer durability & weather protection.

The WCX-8 has a stainless steel 1 mm grill also available in aluminum with protective layer and micro textured paint and a weatherstrip edging for extreme protection.

This enclosure has an acoustex filter, a hydrophobic polyester sheet to prevent the penetration of water and external elements produced by extreme weather conditions. Also, 35 ppi Acoustic foam to protect against dust particles, M8 stainless steel 316 L screws and a waterproof protected cone on both sides.

An aluminum back plate with pressure gland is included for an extra tight connection and easy installation.

Although this cabinet can be used without a processor, the best performance is achieved when using our presets, optimised for LUKA processors and GTX amplifiers. Please note that using the cabinet without our recommended processors or amplifiers may affect the product warranty.
