The ESI nEAR i8 is a powerful 2-way active loudspeaker that uses modern DSP-controlled Class D amplifier technology and newly developed drivers to deliver precise sound with a powerful low-mid range. The combination of an 8-inch paper dome woofer and a 1-inch silk dome tweeter ensures a balanced output across the entire frequency spectrum from 35 Hz to 20 kHz.
A special feature is the Character Selection Switch, which allows you to switch between the analytical Reference mode for precise monitoring and the Mix & Listen mode for musical reproduction. In addition, a high- and low-frequency shelf EQ , each with four selectable settings, allows individual adjustment to the room and personal preferences.
The front bass reflex port allows placement close to the wall without sound restrictions. Thanks to professional connection options, including balanced XLR and unbalanced TRS 6.35 mm inputs, the speaker can be integrated versatilely into various setups. A volume control with 21-stage potentiometer facilitates precise level adjustment. With a total output of 120 watts - 65 watts for the bass driver and 55 watts for the tweeter - the nEAR i8 delivers a maximum sound pressure level of 104 dB peak.
