  • Nominal Diameter: 8" (203.2mm) — An 8-inch footprint that fits a wide range of enclosures while delivering substantial cone area for bass output.
  • Nominal Impedance: 4+4 ohms — Dual 4-ohm coils provide wiring flexibility to achieve the desired load for your amp and enclosure configuration.
  • RMS Power Handling: 600W — Continuous power rating for steady bass performance with suitable amplification.
  • Maximum Power Handling: 1200W — Peak capability for brief power demands without damage when used with appropriate equipment.
  • Sensitivity: 89dB (1W/1m) — Indicates how efficiently the driver converts power into audible sound at a standard distance.
  • Frequency Response: 38Hz–1kHz — Extends into deep bass and integrates with mid-bass ranges for cohesive low-end performance.
  • Voice Coil Diameter: 2.5" (63.5mm) — Large coil aids heat dissipation and control under high-power conditions.
  • Voice Coil Former Material: Black Aluminum — Provides structural rigidity and thermal handling for long-term reliability.
  • Winding Material: SV — Winding material chosen for electrical damping and heat management under load.
  • Diaphragm Material: Non-Pressed Paper + Glass Fiber — Combines stiffness and light weight for accurate bass reproduction.
  • Dust Cap Material: Fiberglass — Adds rigidity to the cone assembly and protects the voice coil area.
  • Surround Material: Foam — Supports controlled excursion and durable movement in various enclosures.
  • Basket Material: Aluminum — Rigid chassis helps minimize unwanted resonances; Basket Color/Finish: Glossy Red for a distinctive look.
  • Magnet Material: Ferrite — Provides a robust magnetic structure suitable for high SPL in car environments.

Recommended Monoblock Amplifiers

Power-matched options for one subwoofer or one complete loaded enclosure. We aim to include same-brand choices when their ratings qualify.

Loading amplifier suggestions…

Suggestions use 75–125% of the subwoofer’s RMS rating at the wiring load shown. Check wiring, enclosure needs, electrical capacity and installation space. Set gain and filters correctly to avoid overpowering the subwoofer. Buying more than one subwoofer changes the match.
