Bose DesignMax DM8C in-ceiling loudspeaker
Overview

Bose DesignMax DM8C

The DesignMax DM8C steps up to an 8-inch coaxial woofer for larger conference rooms, town halls and multipurpose spaces that need more headroom than a compact ceiling speaker can deliver.

A center-firing 1-inch compression driver keeps vocal clarity high, while a wide 135° conical coverage pattern reduces the number of speaker points needed to cover a large room evenly.
