Manufacturer’s Declarations 1.1 EU Declaration of Conformity This declaration applies to: • Traction Sound - Harrier 8-X Manufactured by: Scicoustic Ltd. Studio 6, The Granary, Fairclough Hall Farm, Halls Green, Hitchin, Herts, SG4 7DP United Kingdom This includes production versions of these passive loudspeakers. They must correspond with the original technical version and not subject to modification.
The Harrier 8-X also makes up part of our 2.1 system, alongside the SW15-SP and the SW15. This system uses one active subwoofer to process and drive up to one extra slave sub and two Harrier 8-X for a full stereo system.

SPL over the entire audience area, whilst maintaining an acceptable frequency response. To make the most of each Harrier 8-X, the speaker should be positioned such that the high frequency horn points directly toward the furthest listening position from that speaker. This approach accounts for the loss of SPL over distance by making use of the difference in HF output on-axis compared to off-axis.

2.2.2 – Pole mount The Harrier 8-X can be placed on a 35mm speaker pole, either in the form of a tripod stand or that of a screw-in distance pole connected to a compatible subwoofer. We recommend using an adjustable pole with a ring-lock for maximum stability.

We recommend using the Traction Engine 4|1000-DSP to power this speaker, or the Traction Engine 2.1 when used as part of a Harrier 2.1 system. Care should always be taken not to clip any part of the signal chain including DSP I/O, amplifier inputs or amplifier outputs, as this will lead to degraded sound quality and ultimately damage to loudspeakers and partnering electronics.
