FAQ
What is the difference between passive and bi-amp operation?
In passive mode, this speaker connects directly to a powered amplifier output through a high-slope passive crossover. In bi-amp mode, separate dedicated amplifiers drive the low-frequency and high-frequency sections independently, allowing for more precise control and equalization of each frequency band.
What mounting and suspension options are available?
This speaker features multiple M10 threaded suspension points on top, bottom, sides, and rear for array flying, overhead suspension, and wall mounting. Optional U-bracket and MultiMount hardware kits are available—contact Procure.ae for accessory details.
Is this speaker suitable for outdoor installation?
Standard models are designed for protected indoor fixed installation. Weather-resistant WRC and WRX finish variants are available for humid, coastal, or outdoor environments. Contact us to discuss options for your specific deployment.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the AC895 8-inch full-range system differ from the compact AC28 variants?
The AC895 is marketed as a full-range loudspeaker versus compact, suggesting optimized frequency response and performance across the entire audio spectrum with the same 8-inch driver and compression tweeter.
What venues would benefit from an 8-inch full-range system like the AC895?
Medium-sized venues such as churches, clubs, auditoriums, and performance spaces with 200-500 seat capacity find the AC895 provides balanced full-range reproduction without requiring subwoofers for most applications.
