Description
FINEO FO 8
The compact FINEO FO 8 is designed as a passive 2-way system and has a modern, ultra-slim and space-saving trapezoidal cabinet. With its 8″ cone speaker with 1.75″ voice coil, the FO 8 provides a solid foundation for speech or near-field sound reinforcement and balanced mids in combination with the S112, S118 or S218 subwoofers. The BEM-optimized constant directivity horn with the powerful 1″ compression driver, which is well-known from the CONTOUR X series, specially developed for the rough and tumble of touring, has a dispersion angle of 80° x 60° and thus delivers a large sound area without causing excessive acoustic excitation on the walls or ceilings. The horn can be rotated, meaning that the FO 8 can be used upright, on its side or with altered horizontal and vertical dispersion. The compact speaker can therefore always be positioned optimally, even in small or architecturally complex rooms.
FINEO is the new HK Audio product family for the daily business of professional indoor fixed installations. FINEO offers many detailed solutions, is uncomplicated to use with high sound quality, solid mounting accessories and easy integration.
Based on feedback from installation professionals with many years of experience, many product features were implemented for FINEO that guarantee easy integration in practice. The broad product family consists of five passive Mid/High-units and five subwoofers, available in black and white as standard. Sophisticated and extensive accessories offer simple and safe solutions for all conceivable installation scenarios.
New formats, maximum flexibility
The FINEO loudspeaker series, rethought from the ground up, offers features and formats that are particularly important and in demand for modern installations. Like the coaxial 5″/1″ compact speaker FO 5 and the flyable subwoofers FO S112 F and FO S118 F. The powerful, rotatable tweeters are familiar from the professional touring mid/high unit CONTOUR CX 8.
Easy integration and comprehensive documentation
A standardised VESA hole pattern is available as standard on the rear of all FINEO Mid/High-units. Inside the enclosure, this is supported by generous steel reinforcements. In addition to the new, sophisticated FINEO accessories, installation material from third-party suppliers can also be used, which greatly accelerates and facilitates integration into existing systems.
DSP presets for Lab.gruppen IPX and LEA Professional as well as filter sheets for many other DSP platforms are available in the download area. Simulation data in GLL format for EASE and EASE FOCUS 3 are also available, as well as detailed installation instructions, tender documents and many other details on all products.
Accessories – comprehensive, clever, robust and safe
The FINEO series offers the right accessories for the most diverse, even unusual, application scenarios. From finely adjustable U-brackets to 360° brackets, pan and tilt brackets to tripod mounts and L-brackets – there are hardly any limits to the ideas. And all this with maximum safety, perfectly tailored to the FINEO speakers. The VESA hole pattern on each top unit means that installation material from any third-party manufacturer can also be used.
Ball impact-proof
All FINEO speakers are ball impact-proof as standard. They thus meet the strict requirements of the German standard for sports facilities (DIN 18032-3). The enclosures are extremely robustly built. Massive protective grilles and additional steel reinforcements cope with even the greatest mechanical demands.
