Dayton Audio 8" Ultimax Subwoofer and Cabinet Bundle

About the Cabinet

This particular cabinet is designed specifically for the Dayton Audio 8" Ultimax subwoofer, but works for any subwoofer with an overall diameter of 209.5 mm or less, and a cutout requirement of 190.5 mm or less. When used together with minimal fill, the box and subwoofer combine for a Qtc of 0.68 and an f3 of 45 Hz.

During the CNC manufacturing process, rabbets and dadoes are cut into the back panel for precise panel alignment. A unique two-piece brace adds superior rigidity without affecting the subwoofer's performance. Both side panels feature 18 mm rabbeted extensions with rabbeted recesses to perfectly install the first piece of the two-part, double thick baffle.

The end result is a resonance-free, sealed subwoofer cabinet that is purpose-built to extract the best performance from Dayton Audio's 8" Ultimax subwoofer without taking up much floor space. All that's left to do is finish it to match your décor or paint it to stand out. When your friends ask about it, you get the pleasure of saying, "I built it myself!"

About the Subwoofer

The Ultimax Series of dual voice coil subwoofers, from Dayton Audio, are not for the faint of heart. Built using the latest in subwoofer technology, Ultimax subwoofers are the pinnacle of low frequency driver design. An Ultimax subwoofer tests the strength of your foundation with fast, articulate, gut-wrenching bass.

Over 1-1/4" of travel (16 mm Xmax) is kept completely linear through the use of dual spiders that also limit distortion and rocking modes. "Tall-boy" rubber surrounds with integrated gaskets maintain driver surface area during extreme excursion moments. Thick, one-piece Nomex honeycomb covered cones are covered with woven, heavy-duty glass fibers creating ultra-still cones that resist deformation.

The products of this premium DIY audio brand are produced in North America, Europe, and Asia. Dayton Audio products have received acclaim worldwide throughout the years and are often compared favourably to similar items costing far more.

Dayton Audio woofers

The dominant component in a majority of loudspeaker designs, woofers are responsible for much of a system's tone and character. Don't underestimate this cornerstone element—Dayton Audio has the perfect woofer for every application and budget. Discover some of Dayton’s high-quality audio woofers, such as the popular Dayton Audio Ultimax UM18-22 from the powerful Ultimax Series, the Dayton Audio RSS390HF-4 featuring ultra-low distortion or check out the never-failing Dayton Audio PS95-8 full-range woofer.

Tweeters from Dayton Audio

Although they are the smallest driver in most loudspeakers, tweeters play an important role in our auditory information perception. Clarity, articulation, imaging—Dayton Audio tweeters make your speaker system come alive! Discover the immense popular Dayton Audio air motion tweeters and dome tweeters! Dayton Audio tweeters, such as the Dayton Audio AMTPRO-4, provide ultra-clean, detailed, and dynamic treble output.

Dayton Audio Drivers by Series

Dayton Audio Reference Series

Dayton Audio Designer Series

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 the Dayton Audio DS135-8 5" Designer Series Woofer can handle full rated power at the lowest possible frequencies—without exceeding Xmax. The series combines useful performance parameters with elegant style.

Dayton Audio Ultimax Series

Most low-frequency drivers smear, distort, or alter their input waveform. Ultimax DVC subwoofers by Dayton Audio, such as the Dayton Audio UM12-22 woofer, sweep a higher volume of air while preventing false, deceptive reproduction. They are designed to deliver powerful low-end response from modest-sized enclosures.
