150 watt RMS.
More cone, more voice.

The 8"/20 cm brother of the best seller: 97 dB, a 31 Oz ferrite motor, a 38.5 mm EISV voice coil and a solid aluminium phase plug. More cone area than a 6.5" means more mid-bass body under the voice, on the same power. Sold as a pair.

Why this midrange

97 dB: it plays loud on little power

Three decibels of sensitivity are worth double the amplifier. At 97 dB a 150 W channel is already a lot of sound inside a car.

The phase plug instead of the dust cap

A solid aluminium plug in the centre of the cone: it keeps the response clean off-axis and pulls heat away from the voice coil.

A cone that keeps its shape

Compressed paper with fiberglass, black painted. Light enough to stay fast, rigid enough not to bend at high volume.

8 inches of cone area

222 cm² of Sd against the 147 cm² of a 6.5": the same music gets more mid-bass body and more presence, before the amplifier works harder.

“Continuous RMS only. No peak, no burst, no marketing watts.”

Before you install it

  • Do not go below 4 ohm per channel. Two speakers in parallel on one channel give 2 ohm: most amplifiers will heat up or go into protection.
  • Use a high-pass filter. This is a midrange, not a woofer: cut below 90 Hz and let the subwoofer do the bass. Feeding it low notes is the fastest way to damage it.
  • Set the gain properly. Clipping kills voice coils far more often than power does.
  • Check the opening first. This is an 8"/20 cm frame, not a 6.5": measure the door or kick panel opening before ordering, or plan an adapter ring.

Questions installers ask

How much power does the SP 8CM handle?150 W RMS continuous and 300 W peak, per speaker. The price on this page is for a pair.
What amplifier does it need?4 ohm nominal (3.2 ohm minimum): an amplifier able to deliver about 150 W RMS at 4 ohm on each channel is the right match.
Will it fit in my door?It is an 8" / 200 mm frame, larger than a standard 6.5" opening. Measure first: some doors take it directly, others need an adapter ring or a kick-panel install.
Where do I cut it?High-pass at 90 Hz or above. It runs to 15 kHz, so pair it with a tweeter for the top octaves.
What is the magnet and the phase plug made of?A 31 Oz ferrite magnet and a solid aluminium phase plug, which helps dissipate heat from the voice coil.
