SoundTube Entertainment RS800I Overview

The white RS800i 8" Coaxial Open-Ceiling Speaker from SoundTube Entertainment is a two-way ported speaker with an open-ceiling enclosure design that delivers effective low-end response (from 58 Hz to 22 kHz @ -10 dB). The BroadBeam technology in this speaker incorporates a high-frequency waveguide mated to a 1" convex titanium tweeter. The BroadBeam high-frequency waveguide delivers a consistent dispersion pattern across the operating bandwidth that offers optimum edge-to-edge coverage and reduced power needs.

The RS800i Speaker incorporates a low-profile grille, motor-board, and a six-position tap switch with transformer bypass position. It features a SpeedClamp self-locking cable grip for fast, easy, and secure installation. Designed for indoor and outdoor background to foreground SPL applications, the RS800i Speaker includes a single-point mounting system for rapid open-ceiling installations. The broad dispersion pattern of 105° and high sensitivity of 89.5 dB 1W/1m makes this speaker suitable for big box stores, fitness centers, sports bars, multi-purpose rooms, places of worship, airports, theme parks, ballrooms, convention centers, casinos, and other open-ceiling applications.

BroadBeam waveguide technology delivers a consistent dispersion pattern for maximum intelligibility and edge-to-edge coverage (up to 10 kHz, independently verified)

SoundTube Entertainment RS800I Reviews

Probably should have used them as 70 volt rather than 8 ohm

Plenty of hardware to help in hanging these bad boys. Disappear into the rafters like ghosts. Have 8 of them in our gym of 400,000 cubic feet. Probably will add four more and switch them all to 70 volt; will get a higher SPL in the process. Also will be installing them in our competition gym. This was a good purchase for us.

Surprisingly compact and clean

Just wish they were a bit more sensitive and moved a bit more air. Otherwise, sturdy in construction and great to have all needed hardware included in the price.
