| MAIN FEATURES
A fully time-aligned, 3-way active system utilising Dual Concentric™ plus SuperTweeter™ drive units, the Ellipse 8 has a frequency response extending to above 50kHz for monitoring of wideband programme material.
Ninety degree horizontal dispersion gives you a wide sweet spot for practical working across the console, while analogue signal processing achieves an exceptionally flat frequency response in use.
Discrete MOSFET power amplifiers, with generous power supply, provide more than ample power with extremely low noise and distortion.
The unique cabinet shape not only has a striking appearance but is inherently stiff. Constructed of laminated birch with a massive MDF baffle and rear panel, the enclosure is non-resonant acoustically and mechanically.
