Key Features
Key Features
• High-SPL, high-efficiency system for the
sound reinforcement and PA markets.
• BroadBeamHP
®
coverage pattern
providing smooth response and high
SPL across the audio spectrum.
• One 203 mm (8.0 in) concentric coaxial
coated fiber driver, 25 mm (1.0 in)
compression driver with a 50 mm (2.0 in)
titanium diaphragm.
• Weatherized components and sealed
input panel for indoor/outdoor
applications.
• Switchable dual input option for either
voice coil/8 Ohm direct or 70.7/100
Volt applications.
• Multiple installation hardware
options for overhead and surface mount applications.
• Integrated hanging and safety cables
for easier and cleaner-looking installs.
• Fine black or white paint finish.
Applications
Applications
The SoundTube HP8i is a premium 2way low-profile, high-efficiency, high-SPL
speaker with BroadBeamHP
®
technology
providing a wide dispersion pattern for the
sound reinforcement and PA markets.
The HP8i is engineered for installations
requiring full-range background/foreground music plus paging. A smooth and
even coverage pattern makes the HP8i
an ideal choice for use in warehouses,
gyms, aerobic rooms, super stores, theme
parks and other open-ceiling or outdoor
applications where high SPL is required.
Cast Composite Enclosure
Cast Composite Enclosure
SoundTube’s HP8i cast composite enclosure provides a low-resonance platform
with effective self-damping properties for
a clean, tight sound. Compression cast
glass-fiber composite material coupled with
SoundTube’s patented ZeroReflection
™
internal shaping provides extreme stiffness,
eliminating internal standing waves and
external diffraction distortions. The result
is accurate sound and tight bass in a commercial speaker.

Architectural Specifications
rchitectural Specifications
The loudspeaker shall consist of one
203 mm (8.0 in) concentric coaxial coated
fiber driver, 25 mm (1.0 in) compression
driver with a 50 mm (2.0 in) titanium diaphragm, and a frequency-dividing network
installed in a dual-ported enclosure. The
low-frequency voice coil diameter shall be
50 mm (2.0 in).
Performance specifications of a typical
production unit shall be as follows: Usable
frequency response shall extend from
52 Hz – 17 kHz. The loudspeaker shall be
available with a switchable transformer/8
Ohm input, and shall be equipped with
corrosion-resistant gold-plated barrier
strips for both impedance modes. Taps
shall be nominally 8 W @ 70.7 V (16 W @
100 V), 16 W @ 70.7 V (32 W @ 100 V),
32 W @ 70.7 V (64 W @ 100 V) and 64 W
@ 70.7 V (tap position not used @ 100 V).
The frequency-dividing network shall have
a crossover frequency of 1.8 kHz. Rated
power capacity of the components and network shall be at least 125 Watts continuous
RMS power.
The enclosure shall be constructed of a
glass-fiber reinforced composite for maximum performance. The grille shall be constructed of UV-resistant ABS plastic material.
