Built around an 8\" coaxial 2-way driver delivering consistent, focused point-source sound in any placement position, the EZ-8A is powered by a 100W continuous Class-D amplifier with a 90dB sensitivity rating for efficient acoustic output, and features integrated FIR filter DSP — genuine FIR filtering providing precise magnitude and phase control for a level of sonic detail and accuracy that significantly exceeds what standard DSP processing can achieve in a portable speaker at this size and weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eA high-capacity lithium battery provides up to six hours of operation at mid-high volume, rechargeable via USB-C for convenient universal charging between sessions. Comprehensive connectivity includes balanced XLR and 1\/4\" jack inputs with dedicated level controls per channel, a 3.5mm stereo input for media players and smartphones, a balanced XLR line output for pass-through to additional speakers or recording equipment, and TWS Bluetooth for wirelessly linking two EZ-8A speakers in stereo. HF and LF level adjust EQ controls on the rear panel allow quick and intuitive tone shaping without external processing, and a 35mm pole mount socket, floor monitor angle and tilt-back positioning support multiple deployment configurations to suit any application. A tour bag is included as standard for protective carrying and storage on the road.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiscover The Wharfedale Pro EZ-8A In More Detail...\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/_J3eUXrS0RM?si=KtfZRveMM7pOe8KI\" title=\"YouTube video player\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e8\" Coaxial Driver \u0026amp; FIR Filter DSP\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe EZ-8A's 8\" coaxial 2-way driver places the HF driver concentrically within the LF driver for a single point-source design that delivers consistent, focused coverage regardless of placement angle or position. The larger 8\" format provides greater low-frequency output and extension compared to the EZ-6A, with a higher sensitivity of 90dB for more efficient acoustic output. Integrated FIR filter DSP goes well beyond the capabilities of standard DSP processing, delivering precise simultaneous magnitude and phase control for a refined, accurate and detailed sound that is exceptional for a battery-powered portable PA speaker at this size and weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6 dir=\"ltr\"\u003eUp To 6 Hours Battery Life \u0026amp; USB-C Charging\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe high-capacity lithium battery provides up to six hours of operation at mid-high volume — enough to cover a full day of performances, presentations and events without a mains supply. USB-C charging offers convenient and universal top-up from a wide range of power sources between sessions, and the speaker also operates on mains power via the included AC cable (100–240V, 50\/60Hz) for fixed installation use. Together, these power options make the EZ-8A a genuinely flexible and self-sufficient portable PA solution for a wide range of professional applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6 dir=\"ltr\"\u003eComprehensive Connectivity \u0026amp; Versatile Deployment\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eBalanced XLR and 1\/4\" jack inputs with dedicated level controls handle microphones and line-level sources, a 3.5mm stereo input accommodates media players and smartphones, and a balanced XLR line output enables signal pass-through to additional speakers or recording equipment. TWS Bluetooth allows two EZ-8A speakers to be wirelessly linked for stereo operation without additional cabling. The 35mm pole mount socket, floor monitor angle and tilt-back positioning cover the full range of common deployment scenarios from front-of-house PA through to stage monitoring and close-range presentation use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eKEY FEATURES: Wharfedale Pro EZ-8A Bluetooth PA Speaker\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e8\" Coaxial 2-Way Driver:\u003c\/strong\u003e Consistent, focused point-source sound with improved low-frequency extension and higher sensitivity than the EZ-6A.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFIR Filter DSP:\u003c\/strong\u003e Genuine FIR filtering for precise magnitude and phase control — far beyond standard DSP processing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e100W Continuous \/ 200W Peak Class-D:\u003c\/strong\u003e 115dB maximum SPL from a portable 8kg enclosure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUp To 6 Hours Battery Life:\u003c\/strong\u003e High-capacity lithium battery for a full day of cordless operation at mid-high volume.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSB-C Charging:\u003c\/strong\u003e Convenient universal charging; mains operation also supported (100–240V).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTWS Bluetooth:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wirelessly link two EZ-8A speakers for stereo operation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBalanced XLR \u0026amp; 1\/4\" Jack Inputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dedicated level controls per channel for microphones and line-level sources.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3.5mm Stereo Input:\u003c\/strong\u003e For media players and smartphones.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBalanced XLR Line Output:\u003c\/strong\u003e Signal pass-through to additional speakers or recording equipment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHF \u0026amp; LF Level Adjust EQ:\u003c\/strong\u003e Intuitive rear panel tone shaping for quick sound adjustment without external processing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e35mm Pole Mount:\u003c\/strong\u003e Compatible with standard speaker stands for front-of-house deployment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMultiple Placement Options:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pole mount, floor monitor and tilt-back for versatile deployment across any application.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTour Bag Included:\u003c\/strong\u003e Protective carrying bag supplied as standard for use on the road.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePortable At 8kg:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single carry handle and compact dimensions for easy single-operator transport.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Wharfedale","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59012505665871,"sku":"EZ-8A","price":289.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0891\/3344\/9551\/files\/162c6a6d-2fdf-49b3-b14f-03d025ca787e.webp?v=1791217826","url":"https:\/\/www.audiodirect.co.uk\/products\/wharfedale-pro-ez-8a-8inch-battery-powered-bluetooth-pa-speaker","provider":"Audio Direct","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
