The DAP DRX‑8 is a compact, professional-grade 8‑inch two‑way passive speaker designed for flexibility in small to medium‑sized venues, clubs, bars, rehearsal spaces or mobile setups. It features a robust 15 mm plywood cabinet with scratch‑resistant black finish, built to withstand the rigours of repeated transport and installation. Internally, the DRX‑8 uses an 8″ low‑frequency driver paired with a 1″ high‑frequency compression driver, mounted on a horn with a dispersion of 50° horizontal × 50° vertical—enabling consistent sound coverage across a wide audience area. Key performance specs include a continuous power rating of approximately 100 W, a peak power handling up to 200 W, a sensitivity of around 90 dB (1W/1m) and a maximum sound pressure level (SPL) of roughly 113 dB at 1 m. The frequency response extends from about 68 Hz to 20 kHz (‑6dB), making it capable of delivering clear mid and high frequencies, with decent bass for its size (though a sub‑woofer may be required for serious low end). The cabinet is equipped with a 35 mm pole mount socket for speaker stand usage, and uses dual SPK4 locking connectors for secure speaker cable connection. Reinforced cabinet construction and high‑frequency driver protection circuitry further enhance its durability and reliability.
In short: the DRX‑8 is a no‑frills, well‑built full‑range passive loudspeaker that provides good value for situations where you need solid sound coverage without going into high‑end large format or sub‑heavy systems. It’s best suited for speech, smaller live bands, DJ sets or installation work in modest spaces. For deeper bass or larger venues, pairing it with a dedicated subwoofer would be recommended.
