LD Systems STINGER 8 A G3 Active 8 Inch 2-Way Bass-Reflex PA Loudspeaker

Engineered for rock-solid reliability day in, day out this active 2-way system is a truly professional performer. With its multi-purpose bass reflex construction and carefully contoured, user-friendly presets it is equally suitable for fullrange, satellite or floor monitor applications. The Stinger 8 A G3 is powered by high efficiency Class D amplification with a hefty 300 watts RMS output.

It reduces floor and ceiling reflections, effectively eliminates side lobes and achieves a controlled uniform coverage pattern. The Stinger 8 A G3 incorporates LD Systems’ proprietary DynX DSP technology to ensure top-level performance with maximum clarity and punch at all times. Processing includes crossover and multiband limiter functions for accurate time alignment and pristine, distortion-free audio. Designed to be a real workhorse throughout, the enclosure is made of rigid birch ply and coated with ultra tough polyurea for extraordinary strength and durability. Sporting a steel front grille, Dual-Tilt pole receptacle, multiple suspension points and ergonomic handles the Stinger 8 A G3 is an attractively priced choice for truly professional sound reinforcement. A large selection of accessories facilitate live and installed applications.
