<strong>ACS</strong>-<strong>8P</strong><br />
DESCRIPTION:<br />
CONTRACTOR SERIES<br />
LOUDSPEAKER SYSTEM<br />
TYPE:<br />
SINGLE AMP/TWO-WAY<br />
(bi-amp model <strong>ACS</strong>-8B also available)<br />
ENCLOSURE:<br />
30 Degree Trapezoidal<br />
®<br />
FREQUENCY RESPONSE:<br />
54 Hz - 16 kHz ±3 dB<br />
POWER HANDLING:<br />
500w cont. / 2000w peak<br />
into 8 ohms<br />
SPL @ 1m:<br />
124 dB cont. / 130 dB peak<br />
The <strong>ACS</strong>-<strong>8P</strong> (Passive crossover) employs a large format HF horn driven by a 2" (51mm)<br />
fluid treated compression driver, mated with a rugged 15" (380mm) LF cone driver. This fully<br />
arrayable loudspeaker can fill the largest churches, theaters, sports venues, convention<br />
centers and theme parks with clean, articulate sound. Large systems may be easily built<br />
up from multiple <strong>ACS</strong>-8 units, resulting in well behaved arrays that can provide high level<br />
coverage in vast spaces.<br />

POWER<br />
The <strong>ACS</strong> Controller consists of a MAIN FRAME which accepts<br />
four voicing modules. Modules are available for each of the<br />
different <strong>ACS</strong> loudspeaker types, with two module bays required<br />
for bi-amplified speakers. The controller provides factory-set<br />
equalization curves to smooth the response, protective limiting,<br />
and active crossovers (for bi-amplified models and subwoofers).<br />
Inputs and outputs are available with either XLR connectors or<br />
barrier strips. Mic input & EQ modules are also available.<br />
