Buy Passive Membranes Cheap Online at the Car Audio Online Shop Masori
When searching for precise bass and nuanced sound in the car or home entertainment area, passive radiators are often an underestimated but highly effective component. Whether for car hi-fi, CarHifi, car sound systems, or professional audio applications – in our Carhifi online shop Masori, you will find numerous passive radiators in different sizes and designs. Thanks to manufacturers like Accuton and Dayton Audio, you get reliable chassis that promise high efficiency and flexible applications. Especially in tuning projects for Audi, VW, BMW, Mercedes, SEAT, or Opel, plug & play solutions can be achieved that can be perfectly integrated into the vehicle.
Technical differences and installation options in detail
So that you know from the start what matters when choosing a suitable passive membrane, we have listed some important aspects here:
- Size variety: The common sizes are 8" or 20 cm and 12" or 30 cm. Larger passive radiators like 12" score with deeper bass extension in the lower frequency range, while 8" models are ideal for compact car audio enclosures in sedans or small cars.
- Frequency range: Both Accuton and Dayton Audio offer passive radiators that can often support frequencies down to below 30 Hz. This allows you to create a noticeable punch while maintaining clear mids and airy highs.
- Impedance values: Typical impedances range between 4 and 8 ohms, ensuring seamless operation with a suitable amplifier. Always pay attention to your amp's specifications during planning to avoid overloads.
- Assembly options: For a perfect integration, precisely tailored cutouts, high-quality screws, and sufficient sealing material are recommended. Only with airtight seals can you unleash the full potential of a passive radiator in car audio.
Who wants to play it safe is welcome to use our On-site installation service in Frankfurt Oder use. This way, both car audio beginners and advanced audio enthusiasts receive professional support during installation. For questions regarding compatibility with amplifiers, head units, or specific vehicle models, our team is also available to assist.

Typical performance specifications and designs
To give you a detailed overview, we have compiled a compact table below that displays standard values of many passive membranes. Please note that these values may vary slightly depending on the brand manufacturer – such as Accuton or Dayton Audio.
| Parameter | 8" Passive Radiator | 12" Passive Radiator |
|---|---|---|
| Diameter (inch/cm) | 8" (20 cm) | 12" (30 cm) |
| Frequency response (approx.) | 30 – 200 Hz | 20 – 180 Hz |
| Nominal impedance | 4 – 8 Ohm | 4 – 8 Ohm |
| Sensitivity (dB/W/m) | 85 – 89 dB | 88 – 92 dB |
| Housing types | Compact bass reflex, closed systems | Medium to large bass reflex, larger closed systems |
Many brands use materials such as aluminum or polymers in manufacturing to keep the diaphragm as light as possible while also maintaining torsional stiffness. This combination avoids disturbing resonances and improves bass precision.
Important notes on installation and performance optimization
To ensure your passive radiator can reach its full potential in your car or home setup, the following points are helpful:
- Different housing types: Depending on whether you prefer a sealed or bass reflex enclosure, the acoustic behavior changes. A bass reflex box increases the sound pressure in the low frequencies, while a sealed system provides tight, precise bass.
- Coordination with final stage: Pay attention to the amplifier's power ratings to avoid distortion. An optimal amp power is about 70–110% of the RMS capacity of the speaker cone to have some headroom.
- Adjust crossovers: A careful separation of frequency ranges by high-quality crossovers prevents over- or underloading. Crossover modules in the car audio sector allow precise filter settings, so you can adjust the sound as you wish.
- Cables and Connectors: Thick power cables and high-quality RCA cables are essential to ensure the signal arrives without interference. The higher the available amperage, the more consistent the performance.
- Mechanical stability: Always use vibration-damping materials (e.g., insulation mats in the trunk) to ensure distortion-free sound. Especially with power-hungry subwoofers and passive radiators, the enclosure can move significantly, which can negatively affect sound quality.
Accessories, Performance and Support from Masori
To ensure a smooth installation in the car, we offer a wide range of accessories in our online shop:
- Amplifier: From mono amplifiers to 5-channel amplifiers, you get a variety of power classes tailored to your passive radiator.
- Crossover networks: For fine-tuning in the bass, midrange, and treble ranges, so that your overall system operates harmoniously.
- Assembly materials: High-strength screws, seals, and adapters for different body or housing shapes.
- Insulation material: Special protective films and mats to minimize vibrations in the car and focus the sound.
If you are unsure about choosing the right component, you can always contact our Expert Support wenden. We provide you with individual advice on passive membranes from Accuton, Dayton Audio, and other manufacturers. With the help of our AI chatbot, you can also check which passive membrane suits your music style or your vehicle. Even plug & play solutions for specific car brands can be easily realized. Since we place great value on technical precision, we support you at every step of the planning and installation process.
For all those who do not trust themselves to build it or simply want to leave it to the professionals, we offer our Installation service in Frankfurt Oder. Here you can have your car speaker system upgraded directly on site. This way, you benefit not only from our experience but also from an optimal tuning of the frequency ranges.
Especially in the car audio sector, passive radiators are an underestimated factor, as they can produce an exceptionally deep, clean, and powerful bass when combined with conventional subwoofers. Particularly in compact vehicles, a correctly sized radiator enables a full sound spectrum without the need for additional port openings or large enclosure volumes. For music-loving drivers who value dynamic kick bass as well as precise midrange, passive radiators are a smart choice to fully exploit the car's acoustic potential.

Massive 4 inch voice coil and ton of power handling, great venting around voice coil, also this vega series has black voice coils. Price/value ratio is very high with vega series.
What a Minimonster, 18Liter ported box,tuned to 32hz and plays very loud and even good on lows. Even when i'm underpowering and only giving 350-400watts max. I really love this 6,5 monster, also the aluminium basket is very strong and solid and has great venting for the voice coil. Having rubber surround and carbon fiber cone just makes this even more indestructible

👌 superr
Super Subwoofer mit extrem tiefem Bass. Die Kabel sind dick und hochwertig verarbeitet. Es gibt nichts zu beanstanden. Absolut empfehlenswert.
Un sacré caisson de basses , j'ai eu un 46 cm killer 454 de l'époque année 90 , qui tapait vraiment bien , mais ce tube est bien plus fort et plus ample, toutes les basses passent sans problème, avec une télécommande à réglage multiples taramps eq bass , et un ampli Machete de masori , le couple est parfait, personnellement j'en ai deux tubes et ça donne énormément, avec l'ampli 2 x 530 en 4 ohms . Parfois le plus simple est bien meilleur et plus durable .
Hallo. Sehr freundlicher Kundenservice und schnelle Auftragsabwicklung. Der Lautsprecher ist brandneu und unbenutzt. Ich habe ihn vor einiger Zeit gekauft, aber erst kürzlich das Gehäuse fertiggestellt. Die Parameter entsprechen den Herstellerangaben: 42,5 Liter Nettovolumen, abgestimmt auf 32 Hz und 21 mm starkes Sperrholz. Ich hatte noch nie einen 10-Zoll-Lautsprecher und wusste nicht, was mich erwartet, aber das Ergebnis hat meine kühnsten Erwartungen übertroffen. Der Bass aus einem so kleinen Lautsprecher in einem so kleinen Gehäuse ist einfach unglaublich. Um den X-10 zu kaufen, habe ich meinen DD 712f in einem 70-Liter-Gehäuse verkauft, und der war ein Volltreffer. Der Sundown ist in jeder Hinsicht besser. Ich kann diesen Lautsprecher und den Händler, bei dem ich ihn gekauft habe, wärmstens empfehlen. Beste Grüße.
Est arrivé à la maison très rapidement 👌🏽
Geht echt gut und leicht zum einstellen
