Most of today’s car audio products consist of several custom tooled parts, all which cost extra money. The design goal for RF-8W was to engineer a phenomenal audiophile-grade subwoofer that did not cost a fortune. If you're looking for chrome or something really flashy, look somewhere else. If you're all about performance, look no further.

We used simple, classic materials for the best sound quality; non-pressed pulp paper cones, foam surrounds, and Conex suspension.

RF-8W is also a great fit in a factory 8” subwoofer location...



Reference woofers… Designed with the audiophile in mind. Perfected to a high tolerance of fit and finish, these woofers are engineered to produce accurate, uncolored bass. Dual 2.5 4 Ohm voice coils wound on aluminum formers keep the moving assembly cool while taking the power you throw at ‘em. The 1-piece rubber gasket/ surround and the Nomex spider keep everything aligned and straight to make sure you only hear what you’re supposed to.
