EVID C8.2HC Ceiling

8” Two-Way

Coaxial High-Ceiling

Loudspeaker System

General Description:

The Electro-Voice ® EVID C8.2HC is an 8" coaxial transducer
featuring an innovative waveguide (patent pending) that provides
directivity control to 1 kHz. It provides much better music fidelity
and speech intelligibility in spaces with high ceiling heights than
typical flush units are capable of. Its 75° coverage pattern
provides the same coverage area when used in a 21’ ceiling as a
typical flush mount mounted unit in an 8’ ceiling. This loudspeaker
system is a complete two-way ceiling loudspeaker package. The
package consists of a bezel/waveguide assembly, grille, rear
enclosure, 8-inch coax two-way loudspeaker with waveguide
coupled titanium coated dome tweeter and internal line-matching
transformer. The C8.2HC utilizes a transformer that offers a
selection of 7.5 (70-V only), 15, 30 or 60 watts delivered to the
loudspeaker system using either 70-V or 100-V lines, or 8-ohm
bypass. Selection is via a convenient switch on the front of the
waveguide. The perforated grille is finished in semi-gloss white
powder-coated enamel. The baffle and bezel are constructed from
UL 94V-0 rated ABS. The rear enclosure, with fiberglass damping
material, provides an optimum internal volume for extended low­frequency performance. A rear cover, with provisions for a
junction box fitting, provides access to a 4-pin terminal block that
allows direct connection to the speaker with 12 gauge wire and
provides pass through to additional speakers. A tile bridge is
included for safe suspension of the C8.2HC ceiling system in a
drop ceiling that uses mineral wool, or other fiber-based ceiling
tiles. The EVID line of ceiling speakers has been designed to work
together as a complete system in a wide range of different ceiling
constructions. They provide controlled dispersion, high-efficiency,
high-maximum output, ease of installation, and wide-range
reproduction of music or voice.

Architects’ & Engineers’ Specifications: Frequency Response:

The EVID C8.2HC loudspeaker system shall be comprised of a UL 94V-0
fire rated ABS baffle/bezel assembly, zinc plated steel rear enclosure,
powder coated grille with safety tether, transformer with 8 ohm bypass and
waveguide loaded 8-inch polypropylene low frequency transducer with
coaxially-mounted waveguide coupled 1-inch titanium dome tweeter. Both
the low frequency and high frequency drivers shall be waveguide coupled
to provide dispersion control over the specified frequency range. The
loudspeaker shall meet the following criteria: power rating shall be 100
watts of EIA RS-426A pink noise (6 dB crest factor). Frequency response,
uniform from 50 Hz to 20 Hz. Pressure sensitivity, 93 dB SPL at 1 meter
(3.3 feet) on axis with one watt of pink noise (ref. 20µPa). Minimum
impedance, 6.0 ohms. The loudspeaker shall be 320 mm (12.6 in.) in
diameter and 303 mm (11.9 in.) deep. Weight shall be 6.0 kg. (13.2 lb).
