Arriving today in fact!
The 8M is the younger sibling to the absolutely superb Dutch&Dutch 8C Which are undoubtedly amongs tthe finest loudspeakers I have heard so the bar is set high!.

I apologise about the quality of photography it is a bit gloomy here, the 8Ms are exactly the same dimensions as the 8Cs!

What do the C and M suffixes signify?

I hope you don't mind me brightening the image. My eyes are not good enough to see it as is. :)

Thanks Amir, I will take some more tomorrow in what passes for daylight !
Ray I don’t know but I will ask, they are really good though.
They share many qualities with the 8Cs extremely transparent, wide dispersion , all parameters set by app.

C probably for Cardioid, so M is for Muddy?
 
C stands for Cutout in the cabinet and M stands for Monolithic cabinet.

No I am not being serious.
 
Ummm ... what are the magic, measurable parameters that make it clear why these speakers are superior?
 
P- privileged
M- middles

Marketing hierarchy? ;)
 
Are there any plans to re-release this 8m speaker?

I think that the 8m at a lower price point than the 8c will be a very nice offer for many and they will probably increase Dutch & Dutch sales and built the brand further.

I have a pair 8m and love them! Beautiful too.

OK it doesn’t have the cardioid design and no double subwoofers in the back, but still has many of the qualities at a more affordable price.

don't understand why they didn't include the cardioid, the cardioid is passive and shouldn't add too much to the cost?

dutch and dutch has too many orders they probably cannot keep up with the 8c production anyway.
