K-Gear GH8 - 300W 8-inch Passive 2-Way Point Source Loudspeaker with 90 x 90-Degree Coverage in Black Finish

The K-Gear GH8 is a high-performance, ultra-compact passive point source loudspeaker designed to deliver exceptional sound quality and coverage in a versatile, sleek package. Building on the success of the GH4, the GH8 incorporates cutting-edge features to offer powerful and clear sound, even in the most challenging acoustic environments. Featuring an 8-inch ferrite magnet dual-cone driver, the GH8 is capable of producing high-quality audio across a wide frequency range of 120 Hz to 18 kHz (-6dB), ensuring clear, balanced sound reproduction across the entire audio spectrum.

The GH8's unique cabinet design and cardioid dispersion pattern ensure that sound energy is directed forward, with much lower emission on the backside of the speaker. This results in enhanced sound control, reducing the loss of energy and minimizing residual noise, making the GH8 an ideal choice for environments where precise audio coverage is required. With a maximum SPL of 129 dB per single box, the GH8 delivers powerful output that can easily fill medium to large spaces with clear, consistent sound.

Built for durability, the GH8 is encased in a robust stainless steel enclosure that ensures reliable performance, even in harsh environments. The speaker features an IP64 rating (with the G-IPCAP1 and K-IP65KITA accessories), providing protection against dust and water, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations. The GH8's durable construction ensures it can withstand the elements while delivering exceptional audio performance in demanding settings.

The GH8 incorporates K-Gear's Pure Array Technology (PAT) and Slim Array Technology (SAT), which together provide a perfect balance of sleek design and powerful performance. These technologies allow the GH8 to be used as a point source speaker in distributed audio applications, or integrated into larger arrays for even higher performance and optimized sound coverage. The dedicated joining hardware ensures that multiple GH8 units can be easily combined to create longer arrays, offering enhanced sound control and coverage for larger venues or events.

Whether used as a standalone speaker or integrated into a larger array, the GH8 delivers exceptional sound quality, making it ideal for live performances, events, or fixed installations. Its compact size, combined with its impressive output, makes it a versatile and reliable choice for any application, setting a new standard in K-Gear's audio excellence and bridging the gap between the successful GH4 and the powerful GH12.
