DescriptionSpecificationsrelated itemswarranty
The Dayton Reference Series subwoofers take the quality and performance of the much acclaimed RS line into the subwoofer realm. As with the rest of the Reference Series, the main focus of these subwoofers is ultra-low-distortion. Second, third, and intemodulation distortion are kept extremely low by utilizing three short-circuit paths within the motor structure. A durable aramid fiber spider and extensive venting throughout provide quiet and uniform excursion. The black anodized cone, rubber surround, and custom basket give this driver a unique, high-end look. Choose the high fidelity version for home systems when you are looking for clean, low bass and are not restricted by cabinet size. Specifications: * Power handling: 400 watts RMS/700 watts max * VCdia: 2-1/2" * Le: 1.04 mH * Impedance: 4 ohms * Re: 3.3 ohms * Frequency range: 23 - 1,000 Hz * Fs: 25 Hz * Magnet weight: 150 oz. * SPL: 89 dB 2.83 V/1m, 86 dB 1W/1m * Vas: 3.00 cu. ft. * Qms: 3.12 * Qes: .58 * Qts: .49 * Xmax: 14.3mm * Dimensions: A: 12-3/8", B: 11-1/8", C: 5-3/8".
  • Extensively vented motor eliminates compression and allows quiet excursion
  • Lightweight black anodized aluminum cone for rigidity and lower moving mass
  • Triple shorting ring motor for ultra-low distortion
  • 2-layer coil for reduced back EMF
  • Suitable for sealed or vented enclosures
  • Highest quality materials throughout for long-lasting performance

Awesome subwoofer driver
Wednesday, January 27, 2010
Doug Bailey from Franklinton, LA  

Built a 3.3 cu.ft. box for it, tuned to it's free air resonance. Measures flat in my largish room to below 20Hz. Very musical bass, great LFE. I was leaning toward getting the Titanic, but I'm glad I chose this one instead. It's really well built, very stout.
Literally shakes the room like an earthquake, and it's very efficient. At the moment I'm only running 100W into it. I can't imagine what it will do if run at it's rated power, but I intend to find out!

Very Nice Driver
Tuesday, December 1, 2009
Mark from Mount Shasta, CA  

Installed this driver in a 3.2 cuft. cabinet (WinISD modeled for best sealed Q) but added a floor-firing, slot-loaded 12" Dayton passive radiator tuned to be -3db at about 18 Hz. (WinISd models that to achieve similar response from a ported design would require a 4" x 11" port in a 5.8 cuft cabinet - 80% larger!). Completely satisfied with outcome. No extra weight added to passive to keep it light and fast, 1 1/4" all around, all sides braced, with Dayton 240 watt amp installed. Weighs 118 lbs and lined with 1" Sonic Barrier - very solid, deep, powerful, clean sound. Very impressed. One audiophile friend says 'best bass he has ever heard!'. Highly recommend this driver.

LOW CLEAN BASS
Friday, October 2, 2009
ATAYLOR61802 from URBANA, IL  

I HAVE 2 OF THESE IN MY SYSTEM EACH ONE IN IT'S OWN 4CUFT BOX PORT TUNED TO -3DB AT 15HZ AND I'M ONLY USING THE DAYTON SA-240 CUSTOM SET TO FLAT DOWN TO 15HZ WITH A 3DB ROOL OFF AT 9HZ.
FOR MOVIES THIS THESE THINGS WILL START MOVING MY COUCH BEFORE THEY PRODUCE ANYTHING THAT CAN ACTUALLY BE HEARD AND FOR MUSIC THE BASS IS VERY TIGHT AND CLEAN. THE CONSTRUCTION IS VERY GOOD FOR $140 I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE I COULD USE.
