XY-2E 8" 2-Way Passive/Bi-amp mid-high loudspeaker 270W Black

Developed to allow more versatile use of Pioneer Pro Audio's flagship XY-3B, the XY-1 and XY-2E represent the LF and MHF sections respectively. Using these individual enclosures enables installers, rental houses and touring companies to easily build ground-stacked point-source arrays and deploy systems in venues with low ceilings via a wide variety of configurations.

The XY-2E is much more than an XY-2 in an enclosure. We’ve kept the X-phase system but we’ve enabled individual control of the 8-inch cone driver and 1-inch compression driver, which wasn’t previously possible.

The 8-inch mid-range driver and the 1-inch compression driver are attached to the integrated waveguide with their depths perfectly aligned to minimise the difference of physical distance and reduce cancellation around the crossover frequency. This unique Bi-horn combines mid and high frequencies in a deep position inside the waveguide, improving the blend of the sounds compared to the performance of a conventional separated horn structure. The waveguide’s curved shape perfectly controls dispersion at 50 degrees horizontal and 35 degrees vertical, providing natural sound with high SPL in the targeted area while reducing the sound pressure outside that area.
