PMC 8-2 - Pair - B-Stock (Ex Demo)
The PMC8-2 is the brand new three-way active studio monitor designed to provide critical reference monitoring for the most demanding applications.As with any PMC loudspeaker, thanks to its super-consistent dispersion and tonal balance, the PMC82 may be simply and seamlessly combined with smaller PMC speakers to create larger multi-channel or immersive systems.
These speakers are B-Stock, Ex-Demo. They come in the original packaging and have a full manufacturer warranty.
The twin bass drivers are partnered with the same PMC55 mid-range tweeter, DSP system and four channels of 400W Class-D amplification used in the PMC6-2. Again, the speaker is configurable directly via the rear panel or using the browser-based SoundAlign™ software from a computer or tablet.
Together with the precisely tuned ATL™ cabinet and hexagonal Laminair™ vents, the PMC8-2 delivers phenomenal performance that approaches that of our Main reference monitors, with smooth and consistent bass response down to 25Hz, a revealing mid-range and wide, stable sound-staging. As with the rest of the range, the PMC8-2’s superb definition, fidelity, dynamics and bass accuracy allow mix decisions to be made quickly with complete confidence, and with no listening fatigue even after long sessions.
PMC8-2s can be upgraded through the addition of a PMC8-2 SUB to create an XBD system, enhancing the system’s bass headroom by 6dB. Dedicated short and taller floor-stands are available for the PMC8-2 and PMC8-2 XBD systems which position them on the ideal listening axis.
