Dynaudio LYD 8 - 8" Active Nearfield Monitor
The Dynaudio LYD 8 is the largest nearfield monitor in the LYD series, built to deliver pitch-perfect performance, precision, and powerful bass heft suitable for any home or project studio. Featuring an 8-inch MSP woofer and state-of-the-art DSP, the LYD 8 provides astonishing accuracy across the board. Like the rest of the range, these monitors utilize high-end handmade drivers, contain advanced 24-bit/96kHz Class-D amplification, and offer comprehensive tuning controls to ensure accurate, clean sound even in untreated rooms.
Key Features
-
Powerful Bi-Amplification: Features a bi-amped speaker design with asymmetrical power distribution (80 W Woofer / 50 W Tweeter) utilizing state-of-the-art Class-D amplification. This combination delivers a potent Maximum SPL of 112 dB (at 1m) and incredible dynamic capabilities.
-
8-Inch MSP Woofer: Equipped with an 8-inch Magnesium Silicate Polymer (MSP) woofer, the LYD 8 provides deep, honest low-end reproduction and powerful performance, essential for genres requiring bass heft.
-
Advanced DSP Tuning: The 24-bit/96kHz signal path includes advanced DSP with a crossover frequency of 3.9 kHz. This processing ensures 100% consistency between pairs and delivers a neutral, uncoloured sound that prevents ear fatigue during long sessions.
-
Low-End Control (Bass Extension): Features a 3-way ‘Bass Extension’ switch that allows you to control the low end in 10Hz increments (+10 Hz / +5 dB, 0, -10 Hz / -5 dB). This is crucial for adapting the monitor's low-end frequency response to your room size and acoustic environment.
-
Acoustic Position Control: Includes a Position switch with two different tunings: one for free standing and one designed for wall-mounted installation (speakers within 50 cm of a wall). This filters reflective interference for greater accuracy in challenging acoustic environments.
-
Sound Balance Control (Tilt Filter): The 'Sound Balance' selector is a tilt filter (dark, neutral, bright) that increases or limits brightness depending on the acoustic characteristics of your room, allowing you to compensate for treated or bare walls.
-
Professional Connectivity: Features both XLR balanced and RCA unbalanced inputs for versatile integration into any professional or project studio setup.
