Description
The Designer Series DSA135-8 from Dayton Audio brings great audio fidelity and superior cosmetics to the 5" woofer category.
The Designer Series by Dayton Audio was developed specifically with the speaker designer in mind. It is an affordable, attractive line of drivers that puts performance first. Careful engineering ensures that each speaker in the series is capable of handling full rated power at the lowest possible frequencies—without exceeding Xmax.
These speakers combine useful performance parameters with elegant style. Carefully optimised to provide superb audio reproduction when incorporated into a wide variety of enclosures and alignments, the Designer Series transducers put a beautiful face on audiophile excellence.
Features
- Cosmetic frame with low profile lip, designed for front mounting—no countersinking required!
- Low distortion motor system with copper shorting ring
- Black anodised aluminium cone, half roll rubber surround for durability and accurate reproduction
- Optimised to yield the smallest possible box volume and lowest 3 dB down point
- Smooth frequency response and linear roll-off simplify filter design, guaranteeing good results with off-the-shelf crossovers
- Vented pole piece for minimised power compression and maximised reliability
- Retains the same "family look" as the popular Dayton Audio DVC Series subwoofers and passive radiators
