DK 8 - 100 V/20 OHM

Speakers Overview

The DK 8 - 100 V/20 OHM is a general-purpose horn loudspeaker manufactured by Visaton GmbH & Co. KG. It features an impedance of 20 Ohms and operates within a frequency range of 400 Hz to 5 kHz. The unit delivers a sound pressure level of 107 dBA, measured at 1W/1m. Designed for top mounting, it has a circular shape with a maximum seated height of 9.094 inches (231.00 mm).

Speakers Feature Summary

• Horn-loaded design optimized for high intelligibility in ambient sound environments.
• Robust construction suitable for reliable performance in public address applications.
• Top-mounted configuration facilitates direct installation on walls or ceilings.

Speakers Applications

• Ambient sound systems requiring clear speech intelligibility.
• Public address installations where reliability is critical.
• Wall-mounted audio distribution networks.

Speakers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific impedance and voltage rating against system requirements before integration. Confirm mechanical dimensions, particularly the 231.00 mm height, to ensure adequate clearance for the horn structure. Check RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply to the deployment site.

Speakers Selection Notes

Select this component when high speech clarity is prioritized over full-range music reproduction. The 20-ohm impedance suits constant-voltage distribution systems. Ensure the mounting surface can support the physical weight and that the horn's projection pattern aligns with the intended coverage area.

Speakers Part Context

This model belongs to Visaton's line of general-purpose horn loudspeakers designed for voice reinforcement. It complements other Visaton drivers by providing a dedicated solution for mid-frequency speech transmission. The product is distinct from wide-range cone speakers due to its directional horn characteristics.

Speakers Replacement Considerations

No publicly confirmed substitute part numbers are available in the provided documentation. Verify compatibility with existing transformers or amplifiers if replacing legacy units.
