#13 Martin Audio CDD8 eBay
Pros: Medium-quality vendor data shows a 3.4 ideal-subwoofer preference score. The coaxial Differential Dispersion driver gives point-source summation of the LF and HF sections for consistent coverage, and the ultra-compact enclosure mounts horizontally or vertically for on-wall installation use.
Cons: Being passive, it needs an external amplifier and crossover, and its compact on-wall design targets installed foreground music over full PA main duty.
How it compares: Just above it: RCF ART 708-A MK5. Just below it: RCF ART 708-A MK4.
