Tang Band W8-2096B 8″ Underhung Midbass Driver 4 Ohm

Overview:

The W8-2096B 8″ woofer is capable of extremely low distortion and high excursion thanks to its massive underhung motor assembly, featuring a huge 1″ thick top plate. With an extensively damped paper cone, this driver is extremely smooth up to 5,000 Hz.

Product Highlights:

• Substantial underhung motor assembly capable of 8.5 mm of excursion
• Heavily damped paper cone produces smooth and natural response
• Underhung design delivers incredible cone control and low distortion
• Large 2″ voice coil with extensive venting minimizes power compression
• Huge ferrite magnet, and underhung motor design.
• Short ring VC = 49.5mm.
• Very low 2nd and 3rd distortion (low THD).
• Long throw, high power loading, X-max = 8.5mm.
• Coated paper cone with wide range temperature of foam rubber surround.

Product Description:

Tang Band designed the W8-2096B 8″ woofer to generate remarkably wide frequency response with particularly low harmonic distortion. To keep distortion low, Tang Band designed this driver around a massive underhung motor assembly with an impressive 1″ top plate, which allows for 8.5 mm Xmax while keeping the entire voice coil inside the magnetic gap. Extensive venting around and through the 2″ voice coil minimizes power compression, even when driven to the limits of excursion. The paper cone has excellent damping characteristics and the rubber surround has additional damping applied minimizing resonant peaks resulting in remarkably flat response all the way up to 5,000 Hz. Holding this all together is a rigid, non-resonant, polymer frame. This 8″ woofer is the perfect choice for use in 2-way speaker systems capable of providing amazing low frequency response.
