Martin Audio CDD Live 8

The CDD-LIVE 8 is an ultra-compact, self-powered, two-way system featuring an 8 inch (200mm) LF/1 inch (25mm) exit HF Coaxial Differential Dispersion driver which can be easily rotated for horizontal or vertical orientation. Its small size gives no indication of its high output capability and exceptional fidelity. As a stand-alone loudspeaker, it has a multitude of professional applications - from small-medium scale sound reinforcement, AV presentations and HoW to distributed systems, frontfill/infill and use as a micro stage monitor.
