General Description:
The Electro-Voice® SL8.2 is the new standard of no compromise audio perfor-
mance and versatility in an easy to install, compact sound reinforcement package
for a wide array of cinema and theater surround applications.
The high-tech enclosure uses injection-molded high-impact polystyrene to make
the SL8.2 extremely durable. The enclosure geometry has been engineered to
provide maximum rigidity and acoustic performance. The velocity compensated
port design overcomes the limitation of many small cabinet loudspeakers and
enables exceptional low-frequency response without vent noise.
SL8.2 installation is incredibly simple with the included QuickSAM
system. The QuickSAM TM is a unique, integrated mounting bracket which is
virtually foolproof. It allows the installer to simply snap the speaker onto the
bracket, then tighten it to the desired position. For array mounting, there is an
optional array bracket kit available which allows multiple units to be mounted
together for a variety of configurations.
The horn features 100° x 100° coverage for broad even dispersion needed in many
distributed audio applications.
The SL8.2 molded polymer enclosure is inherently water resistant. The addition of
a multilayer grille with hydrophobic cloth and weatherized components enable the
SL8.2 to perform under many environmental conditions. An optional weatherized
input panel cover with a gland nut is available for additional protection.
The SL8.2's long excursion, high output 8" woofer with a weatherized treated cone
delivers smooth low-frequency performance with exceptional reliability. A sophis-
ticated crossover network integrates it with the DH2005, a 1.25-inch voice coil true
compression driver for maximum output with extended frequency response. Full-
bandwidth overload protection is provided for reliable, long term operation without
audible effect.
