The V2-8W is a compact, two-way, full-range 8-inch loudspeaker designed for a wide range of fixed installations. Despite its modest size, it delivers powerful, high-fidelity sound suitable for distributed audio systems in cafes, restaurants, shopping centers, airports, and other public venues. Its 90° x 70° rotatable constant-directivity horn, DYNA-TECH driver protection, and Carbon Ring Cone Technology ensure consistent clarity, extended excursion, and reliable performance in any environment.
Ideal for delay fill applications or to augment front-of-house systems in theaters, auditoria, and houses of worship, the V2-8W helps even out sound coverage from front to rear. It can be mounted on walls or ceilings with the included yoke bracket, suspended from M6 rigging points, or installed using third-party mounts. Paired with a subwoofer like the Community VLF208LV, it produces a broad-spectrum, full-range audio experience that belies its compact size.
For optimal performance, Community Amplified Loudspeaker Controllers (ALC) are recommended, including the ALC404D, though higher-power ALC models may also be used safely. Ruggedly built with a sleek white finish and versatile mounting options, the V2-8W delivers professional-grade sound reinforcement backed by a 5-year warranty.
