DESCRIPTION

Martin Audio's W8VDQ is a compact yet powerful 3-way loudspeaker system engineered with the brand's acclaimed Differential Directivity technology. Purpose-built for touring and portable production, this enclosure delivers remarkably consistent SPL coverage from the front to the back of the audience area — eliminating the common problem of excessive levels near the stage while maintaining intelligibility at distance.

Differential Directivity works by progressively narrowing the vertical dispersion as frequency increases, ensuring that high-frequency energy is projected further while lower frequencies cover the near field naturally. The result is a smoother, more even tonal balance throughout the entire listening environment without the need for extensive delay systems.

  • 3-way design featuring dual 12" LF drivers, a midrange horn, and a 1.4" exit HF compression driver
  • Differential Directivity provides consistent front-to-back SPL coverage
  • Compact, tour-ready enclosure with integrated rigging hardware for flown or ground-stacked deployment
  • Rotatable HF horn for flexible orientation options
  • Bi-amp or passive operation for versatile system integration
  • High power handling with exceptional output-to-size ratio

Ideal for small-to-medium venues, corporate events, and festival side stages, the W8VDQ delivers main-system performance in a highly portable format that audio professionals can deploy quickly and confidently.
