Legacy Series - TX8
Dynamic yet efficient, the TX8 is a category leader. This seamless three-way enclosure is capable of extremely high output levels with low distortion. The large motor 2" high frequency driver utilizes a titanium diaphragm and is mounted on a custom 60° x 40° horn that starts directly at the driver phasing plug, thus eliminating horn throat 'squeeze'. The proprietary ultra-light mass 8" midrange driver and wave-guide horn combination provide loud, crystal clear reproduction throughout the entire midband.
