Key Features
• Patented BroadBeamHP ® waveguide
technology delivers a consistent disper-
sion pattern for maximum intelligibility
and edge-to-edge coverage (up to 8 kHz,
independently verified).
• One 203 mm (8 in.) treated fiber woofer
and one 36 mm (1.42 in.) compression
driver (1.0 inch exit) mounted to a pro-
prietary cast-aluminum M8 ™ baffle and
heat sink.
• High output (115.0 dB) and 120-watt
transformer for the sound reinforcement
and PA markets.
• Average sensitivity of 94.0 dB offers
high output capabilities and reduced
amplification costs.
• Weatherized components for indoor and
outdoor applications.
• Patented ZeroReflection™ enclosure
technology for optimal sound reproduc-
tion and cabinet rigidity.
• Includes hanging hardware with
aircraft cables and integrated Speed-
Clamp ™ self-locking wire grip for
fast, easy and secure installation. Also
includes Euroblock connector and ter-
minal weather boot.
• UL 1480 and 2239 (hanging cable)
approved.
• Easy-access five-position selectable tap
switch for 25-, 70.7- and 100-volt applica-
tions with voice coil direct position sim-
plifies ordering and inventory tracking.
• Optional accessory: AC-RS-SM8 bracket
for surface-mount applications.
• High-quality black or white paint finish.
Custom paint colors optional.
Description
The HP890i is a premium 8-inch, two-
way, ported, high-efficiency, high-SPL
loudspeaker for distributed or 8 ohm
applications. The HP890i incorporates a
dedicated 8-inch treated-fiber driver and
high-power compression transducer with
a BroadBeamHP® waveguide to deliver a
consistent dispersion pattern and superb
intelligibility for the foreground music,
sound reinforcement and PA markets.
The HP890i incorporates a 120-watt trans-
former with a five-position rotary switch
with a voice coil direct position. Hanging
hardware is included and features a fast-
action SpeedClamp™ for easy and secure
installation.
