ANNY – your battery-powered sound solution for truly anywhere: whether in the city, in the garden, at gatherings, at sports events, at school and dance events, in bars, at parties, wherever you are, with ANNY you can provide professional sound and create unforgettable moments.

As the lightest and most compact model in the ANNY® series, the ANNY® 8 is equipped with an 8" woofer and a 1" tweeter. Thanks to its balanced weight and practical carrying handle, it is easy to transport. ANNY® 8 thus offers an ideal combination of compactness, mobility, and impressive sound performance.

The Tilt-Back cabinet allows you to tilt your ANNY® 8 when it's on the ground, optimizing sound dispersion or using it as a monitor. To reach a larger audience, the ANNY® 8 can also be mounted on a speaker stand.

With an integrated 5-channel mixer, 3-band EQ, 5 application presets (MUSIC, LIVE, VOCAL, ECO, FLAT) and effects such as reverb & delay, it combines comprehensive features and outstanding sound quality in a compact and timeless design. ANNY® 8 impresses with its versatile connection options: two microphone/line combo inputs, one stereo channel with 3.5mm jack (AUX) and RCA inputs as well as Bluetooth 5.0 with AAC codec.

This array of inputs enables a wide range of setups with a mix of speech and music. The footswitch input allows you to switch the reverb & delay effects easily and hands-free with an external footswitch while playing or singing.

To guarantee clear and audible announcements in any situation, you can use the "Priority" function. To do this, simply select your microphone in the priority settings and the music will automatically be attenuated when you use your microphone.

Further adding to its versatility, True Wireless Stereo (TWS) allows you to link two ANNY® 8 loudspeakers to enjoy your music in stereo – a quick upgrade that creates an impressive sound solution for parties and events.

Don't worry, you can turn your ANNY up all the way, because the built-in DynX® DSP (Gen. 2) produces a distortion-free, clean and powerful sound even at maximum volume.

Thanks to the energy-saving ECO preset, ANNY can last especially long for background music or voice-only applications. At medium volume, this mode enables continuous operation for up to 11 hours. For your party at maximum volume in MUSIC preset, the battery lasts up to an impressive 3.5 hours at full capacity. You can further extend the operating time using the optionally available backup battery; simply replace the empty battery with fully charged one and you're ready to continue.

To ensure that your mobile phone or tablet is always ready for use, you can place it in the integrated holder and charge it via the USB-C port on the back of ANNY.

If you travel a lot with your ANNY® 8, you'll appreciate the optional ANNY® 8 BACKPACK as the ideal protective backpack with versatile carrying options: Shoulder strap, backpack straps and carry handle. The water-repellent backpack offers extra storage space and protects your ANNY® 8 from the elements.

So go ahead and create unforgettable moments. With ANNY by your side, you'll create a great atmosphere and first-class sound – wherever you are.
