The Bose Professional Panaray 802 Series III is a legendary full-range loudspeaker designed for permanent installations and portable use.

What is the Bose Panaray 802 Series III Loudspeaker?
The Bose Panaray 802 III is a high-output, full-range professional loudspeaker featuring eight 4.5-inch (114mm) drivers in a patented Articulated Array. It delivers a wide 120° x 100° coverage pattern and a frequency range down to 50 Hz, often eliminating the need for subwoofers in speech and light music applications. Its rugged, IP55 weather-rated enclosure makes it the premier choice for stadiums, auditoriums, and outdoor venues in the UAE. Available at Gigstore.
Legendary Performance: Bose Panaray 802 Series III Full-Range Loudspeaker (Black)
The Bose Panaray 802 III is the industry standard for versatile, high-performance sound reinforcement. Available at Gigstore, this loudspeaker is a favorite for major event spaces in Dubai and Abu Dhabi due to its unique ability to provide massive, uniform coverage from a relatively compact enclosure. Whether used for a permanent installation in a house of worship or as a portable PA for outdoor festivals, the 802 III delivers natural vocal clarity and smooth musicality.
The strength of the 802 III lies in its eight-driver Articulated Array® design. By mounting eight full-range drivers in symmetric vertical pairs, Bose achieves a broad 120° horizontal dispersion. This minimizes the "dead zones" found with traditional horn-and-woofer speakers, ensuring that every seat in your UAE venue receives the same high-quality audio experience. Its mica-reinforced structural foam enclosure is not only lightweight for transport but also incredibly durable for long-term use.
Extreme Durability for the UAE Climate
As part of the "Installed Anywhere" series, the Panaray 802 III is **IP55 weather-rated**. For our customers in the Emirates, this means the speaker is specifically built to withstand high temperatures, intense sun exposure, and the fine dust common in the region. The drivers themselves are treated for environmental resilience, allowing the 802 III to be installed in outdoor stadiums, beachfront resorts, and open-air plazas with total confidence. For maximum output and driver protection, it should be used with a Bose professional digital controller or PowerMatch amplifier.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the 802 III require a digital controller?
Yes, for optimal performance and to protect the drivers, the 802 III requires active equalization. This can be provided by a Bose ControlSpace processor or a PowerMatch amplifier with the correct presets.
Is this the same as the Series IV?
The **Series III** is the classic version featuring a protective front cover with a handle, making it excellent for portable use. The Series IV is an updated version primarily designed for permanent installations without the front cover.
Can I use this without a subwoofer?
For speech and many music applications, the 802 III provides enough low-end (down to 50 Hz). However, for high-energy dance music or deep theater sound, we recommend adding a **Bose MB24** or **502B** subwoofer from Gigstore.
