Two-Way 8" On-wall System
Compact
The ADORN A80T is a two-way passive speaker with an elegant design that is perfect for architectural environments that require high fidelity sound from an unobtrusive, compact enclosure. It brings class-leading performance, reliability and value to a wide range of commercial sound applications — from retail outlets, bars and restaurants to corporate offices and convention centres.


A80T is the perfect choice for background and foreground systems which require superior performance. Its Martin Audio signature sound characteristic also provides a seamless sonic transition within a multi-zoned complex using larger Martin Audio systems such as CDD or BlacklineX.
Comprising an 8” (203mm) LF driver and a 1” (25mm) polymer dome HF compression driver on a 90° x 50° horn, it handles 200W AES, 800W peak and can produce 120dB peak output at 1 metre. It has a smooth frequency response and strong bass reproduction that extends down to 63Hz.
With a nominal impedance of 8 ohms, multiple speakers can be driven in parallel from a single channel of a low impedance amplifier, such as the Martin Audio VIA2502 or VIA5004, thereby maximising efficiency and minimising cost. A80T also incorporates a high-quality transformer for 70V/100V line operation, with transformer taps selected by a rotary switch. For 70V/100V line, we recommend the VIA5002.
For full bandwidth protection, the low and high-frequency sections are individually protected against overload. Available in black or white as standard, it can be readily painted to match any décor and can be wall-mounted vertically or horizontally using the supplied accessory WB6/8 bracket.
For outdoor use, the cabinet has an IP rating of IP54 when fitted with an optional weatherised connector cover. The VIA2502 or VIA5004 (or VIA5002 for 70V/100V line) in combination with a Martin Audio DX0.4 or DX0.6 controller will be perfect partners for small-scale efficient installations. Combine these amps with the DX4.0 controller for larger more complex installations managed by Marin Audio’s VU-NET control software.
The Martin Audio SX112 subwoofer will extend the bandwidth of A80T and is ideal for foreground music applications which require increased impact and low frequency performance.
This speaker is certified compliant with UL 1480A and UL 2043 safety standards.
