D&B V8

D&B V8 Rental in Ibiza

Rent the D&B V8 in Ibiza for concerts, live performances, corporate productions, large private events and professional sound systems.

The V8 is a high-performance passive three-way line array loudspeaker developed by d&b audiotechnik for medium and large-scale sound reinforcement.

It combines two 10-inch low-frequency drivers, one horn-loaded 8-inch mid-frequency driver and two 1.4-inch compression drivers inside a compact touring cabinet.

Professional D&B V8 Line Array Loudspeaker

The D&B V8 uses a symmetrical driver arrangement designed to provide consistent horizontal directivity and smooth interaction between frequency ranges.

Its two low-frequency drivers are positioned around the centrally mounted mid- and high-frequency components. This configuration maintains useful horizontal directivity control down to approximately 250 Hz.

The cabinet provides a nominal horizontal dispersion of 80°, making it suitable for controlled long-throw coverage in professional line array systems.

Controlled 80° Horizontal Coverage

The D&B V8 is the narrower-dispersion cabinet within the mobile V-Series line array range.

Its 80° horizontal coverage directs more energy towards the intended audience and reduces unnecessary sound outside the coverage area.

It is particularly suitable for:

• Concerts
• Corporate productions
• Live music events
• Large weddings
• Outdoor productions
• Festival stages
• Long audience areas
• Main PA systems
• Professional temporary venues
• Events requiring controlled sound dispersion

The V8 is especially effective in the upper and long-throw sections of an array, where narrower coverage and greater projection are required.

High Output for Professional Productions

The D&B V8 reaches a maximum sound pressure level of 142 dB when powered by compatible D40, D80, D90 or 40D amplifiers.

Its standard frequency response extends from 67 Hz to 18 kHz. In CUT mode, the response starts at 100 Hz for integration with compatible subwoofer systems.

This output capability makes the cabinet suitable for medium and large productions where headroom, vocal clarity and consistent coverage are essential.

Adjustable Vertical Array Configuration

The V8 supports splay angles from 0° to 14° in one-degree increments.

Up to 24 cabinets can be flown in a vertical column when the system is designed and rigged using approved d&b hardware.

This allows the array curvature to be adapted to different venue heights, audience depths and coverage requirements.

For acoustic and safety reasons, d&b specifies that its line arrays must be designed using ArrayCalc simulation software.

Combine V8 and V12 Cabinets

The D&B V8 is mechanically and acoustically compatible with the D&B V12.

The V8 provides 80° horizontal dispersion, while the V12 offers wider 120° coverage. Therefore, both cabinets can be combined within the same array to adapt coverage to different audience areas.

A common system design may use V8 cabinets for longer throw and V12 cabinets towards the lower sections of the array, where wider near-field coverage is required.

Compatible D&B Amplifiers

The following d&b amplifiers can be used with the V8:

• D&B D20
• D&B D40
• D&B D80
• D&B D90
• D&B 40D for installation applications

Up to two standard V8 cabinets can be powered from one compatible amplifier channel.

The correct amplifier preset, channel configuration and processing must always be selected before operating the loudspeaker.

The D&B V8 can be supplied as part of a complete professional line array system.

Depending on the production, the package can include:

• D&B V12 loudspeakers
