CB-8 | MODE Audio 8" High-Fidelity Passive Full-Range Loudspeaker with Italian FaitalPRO Neodymium Driver, Birch Plywood, Black

The MODE Audio CB-8 is a passive full-range loudspeaker designed for high-fidelity sound reinforcement in professional applications. It features a premium 8" Italian FaitalPRO coaxial neodymium driver with an integrated 1.46" HF compression driver for precise, balanced, and detailed sound reproduction, rated at 250W RMS / 500W program power (8Ω). A phase-coherent design with uniform 100° conical dispersion ensures even coverage across the listening area, making the CB-8 ideal for vocal reproduction while serving effectively as a primary or fill speaker in live sound, installed systems, and immersive audio configurations. With a maximum SPL of 127 dB and a sensitivity of 97 dB (1W/1m), it delivers clean, low-distortion output with consistent tonal balance. The CB-8 is housed in a compact, tour-grade birch plywood enclosure engineered to minimize unwanted resonance while maintaining durability for both portable and permanent installations. Optional U-bracket mounting options (CB-8UH for horizontal or CB-8UV for vertical, sold separately) enable flexible deployment across stages, venues, and installed sound environments such as schools, restaurants, lounges, and performance spaces. For optimized system performance, the MODE Audio CB-8 integrates seamlessly with the MODE Audio NTA3.4DSP amplifier (sold separately), supporting configurations of up to four CB-8 loudspeakers per channel. This allows for scalable, phase-aligned systems with consistent output and professional sound quality.
