• KV2 Audio reinforces ESD range with ESD8

    The ESD range of two-way and three-way passive loudspeakers from KV2 offers a wide variety of loudspeaker solutions ranging from the compact ESD Cube through to the full-sized ESD15 and ESD36. KV2 has extended the range with the addition of the ESD8, which slots into the range between the existing ESD6 and ESD10.

    As its name suggests, the ESD8 is a compact passive 2-way, high full-range loudspeaker incorporating an 8" woofer (with modulation ring) and a 1" compression driver coupled to a wide dispersion horn. Presented conservatively like the rest of the range in an angled low-profile Baltic birch enclosure and reportedly "designed to present exceptional speech and music definition", the ESD8 provides a smooth hi fidelity response and delivers a natural sound quality and level that is superior to many larger competing products, says KV2.

    Targeting use as a main system speaker or as an in-fill for larger systems, the ESD8 can be applied on podiums, stands or suspended. Proposed applications range from corporate presentations and functions to infill, close monitoring or installation. Combined with subwoofers – of which there are four to choose from in the ESD range – ESD8 offers full range performance.
