Product Description
Manufacturer Part Number: PCX12-8
The PCX12-8 is highly versatile and can be used in car audio and home theater, while also performing as expected in PA and live audio configurations thanks to its coaxial design. The flat response up to the crossover point makes it easy to pair with your favorite compression driver for reliable and predictable performance out in the field.
Dayton Audio PCX12-8 12" Pro Coaxial Woofer
This 200-watt woofer will cruise, distortion-free in low power applications. The PCX12-8 is highly versatile and can be used in car audio and home theater, while also performing as expected in PA and live audio configurations thanks to its coaxial design. The flat response up to the crossover point makes it easy to pair with your favorite compression driver for reliable and predictable performance out in the field.
The Dayton Audio PCX12-8 has a response that matches a large number of horn drivers due to its high efficiency in the frequency range of human voices and midrange detail of stringed instruments. The impedance curve of the PCX12-8 makes it easy to pair up with your favorite compression driver without taxing your power amplifiers!
The Dayton Audio PCX12-8 employs an 80-degree conical dispersion horn from behind the screened dustcap. Dayton Audio takes advantage of a coaxial design to bring you better response through the combined range of the woofer and compression driver by aligning the outputs of both drivers so they reach your ears at the same time. This minimizes peaks and nulls in the frequency response created by misaligned sources, and the 80-degree dispersion of the conical horn ensures you preserve high-frequency performance off-axis both vertically and horizontally.
When using a coaxial driver in a design, the outputs of each driver appear as a single point in space. This lends itself well to many uses in the home audio and car audio spaces with the ability to use compact and low-profile enclosures when space is at a premium. A QTS value of 0.53 is in the perfect sweet spot to work well in both vented and sealed cabinets. When combined with the nearly endless selection of horn drivers available right now, the PCX12-8 enables you to truly personalize your sound!
