Descripción
The HK AUDIO FINEO FO-8 is a compact passive 2-way installation speaker designed for speech reinforcement and near-field sound applications. Its 8-inch Sica woofer and 1-inch Sica compression driver deliver balanced mids and clear high-frequency reproduction, making it suitable for a variety of professional installation environments.
The BEM-optimized constant directivity horn provides 80° × 60° dispersion, helping distribute sound across the listening area while limiting unwanted acoustic reflections from walls and ceilings. Its rotatable design allows the speaker to be installed upright or horizontally, with flexible horizontal and vertical dispersion.
Featuring a slim trapezoidal MDF cabinet, the FO-8 offers practical installation flexibility for architecturally challenging spaces. It can also be combined with HK AUDIO S112, S118, or S218 subwoofers for extended low-frequency performance.
