The ARTEC-508A incorporates a single 8” loudspeaker for low frequency reproduction. The 720 W peak power of the Class D amplifier provides extended bandwith, improved dynamic range and exceptionally low distortion-features hard to find on other systems in this market segment. The DAS 8C loudspeaker provides accurate low frequency reproduction. High frequencies are handled by the M-34 compression driver with 1″ exit offering excellent HF performance. The birch plywood cabinet construction offers an ultra-compact design which is available in black or white.
