Audio Code AXC ZRO 8 8" Midrange Loudspeaker

Product Overview

Add focused midrange output to a multi-way car audio system with the Audio Code AXC ZRO 8 8" midrange loudspeaker. It handles 250W RMS at 4 ohms and covers 100Hz–12kHz. As the largest driver in the Audio Code ZRO midrange series, its 8" cone offers more cone area than the 6.5" ZRO 6.

Use it in an active or passive system with a subwoofer and tweeter. It is sold individually, so order two for a stereo pair.

Key Features & Benefits

• 8" cone: More cone area supports greater midbass output and presence in the lower midrange.
• 250W RMS power handling: Suits high-output system builds when paired with an appropriately rated amplifier channel.
• 100Hz–12kHz response: Covers the stated midrange range for integration with a subwoofer and tweeter.
• 4-ohm nominal impedance: Helps you match the speaker to an amplifier channel rated for a 4-ohm load.
• Single-speaker package: Each order contains one speaker; order two for a stereo pair.

Technical Specifications

For comparison, the AXC ZRO 6 is listed with a 6.5" cone, 250W RMS handling, 4-ohm impedance, and 100Hz–12kHz frequency response. It includes an integrated bullet phase plug; the ZRO 8 is the larger-format option.

Why Choose This Product?

The AXC ZRO 8 is a dedicated midrange driver, not a coaxial speaker. Its larger format is intended for builds prioritizing midbass output and acoustic presence, including custom door pods, kick panels, and enclosures. Its stated frequency response reaches from upper-bass range through lower-treble presence, for use as one part of a multi-way system.

Installation & Compatibility Notes

Use the ZRO 8 with an active or passive crossover alongside a subwoofer and tweeter. The source recommends a high-pass setting of 100–150Hz and a low-pass setting of 4–6kHz. It also recommends a dedicated amplifier channel rated 125–250W RMS at 4 ohms.

A DSP amplifier with active crossover capability is suggested for system processing; the source names the JBL DSP4086 as an example. Check that your intended pod, kick panel, or enclosure can accommodate an 8" driver before planning the installation.
