The installation of the Horizon HZ800A subwoofer is simple and space-saving thanks to its compact dimensions of 289.6mm x 209.6mm x 75.0mm. You can easily mount the subwoofer in the trunk or under a seat, depending on the vehicle design. Your vehicle's battery must support the maximum current draw of 13 A, and the connection is made via low-level or high-level inputs. Note the input sensitivity of 0.1 V to 4.0 V for low-level and 0.25 V to 20 V for high-level inputs to ensure optimal performance.
The Horizon HZ800A from ESX is equipped with a built-in amplifier that provides an RMS power of 100 watts and achieves short-term peak power of up to 200 watts. This power is optimally matched to the 8-inch subwoofer to produce rich and precise bass. Thanks to the intelligent electronic design of the amplifier, exceptional performance is ensured even under intense use.
The frequency response of the Horizon HZ800A ranges from 30 Hz to 150 Hz, making it ideal for reproducing deep bass. With a steep crossover frequency of 12 dB per octave, the subwoofer allows for precise bass reproduction and a clean separation from the higher frequencies of other speaker systems. The bass boost can be adjusted from 0 dB to +12 dB at 50 Hz to tailor the sound to personal preferences and different music styles.
The aluminum die-cast housing of the Horizon HZ800A significantly contributes to sound quality by reducing unwanted vibrations and rattling noises. Aluminum is not only lightweight and robust, but also ensures efficient heat dissipation. This keeps performance stable even at high volumes. This compact housing allows for placement in small spaces without compromising bass quality.
The ESX Horizon HZ800A comes with a Bass Volume Remote Control. This control allows you to conveniently adjust the bass volume from the driver's seat. This way, you can dynamically adapt the sound to your preferences or different music genres. The flexibility of the remote control ensures that you achieve the optimal sound without physical changes to the subwoofer, a clear advantage when audio requirements change.
The 15A fuse included in the Horizon HZ800A protects the amplifier and the subwoofer from overload and short circuits. It is an important component of safety technology and ensures reliable performance even under intense use. Maintenance is simple: if the fuse blows, it can be easily replaced, restoring system safety. This is especially important in vehicles to avoid system failures or damage due to electrical overload.
The high-pass filter in the ESX Horizon HZ800A ensures that frequencies below a certain threshold are filtered out to minimize distortion and enhance sound quality. This is particularly useful to avoid unnecessary strain on the subwoofer at extremely low frequencies that it could not reproduce efficiently. The use of a high-pass filter helps the subwoofer deliver precise and clear bass by focusing on the optimal frequency range.
The ESX Horizon HZ800A weighs 3.73 kg, making it not a significant burden for the vehicle. This lightness, combined with its compact dimensions, facilitates installation in a variety of vehicles. You can integrate the subwoofer into the designated space with little effort, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. The low weight also ensures that the vehicle's center of gravity is not significantly affected.
The idle current consumption of less than 600 mA is crucial as it describes the energy consumption of the subwoofer in standby mode. This low current consumption minimizes the load on the vehicle battery when the subwoofer is not active, which is particularly important for vehicles that remain stationary for extended periods. Therefore, low idle power consumption not only contributes to energy efficiency but also helps extend the lifespan of the vehicle battery by avoiding excessive discharges.
The limiter in the Horizon HZ800A provides protection against signal clipping by preventing the output power from exceeding a defined maximum. Especially at high volumes, the limiter protects the subwoofer from damage and preserves sound quality. By cutting off signal peaks, it allows the amplifier to operate continuously at the power limit without producing distortions. This way, you can enjoy precise and clear bass even at maximum volume, significantly enhancing your audio experience.

100-watt RMS amplifier of the ESX Horizon HZ800A

The integrated amplifier in this ESX subwoofer delivers 100 watts RMS and reaches a maximum power of 200 watts. This power is optimally matched to the 8 subwoofer, achieving precise and intense bass reproduction. The amplifier ensures that clear sound is always produced at different volume levels without distortion. The ability to achieve higher power levels ensures sufficient power is available even in demanding sound environments.

Bass control with the Bass Volume Remote Control of the ESX subwoofer

A highlight of the HZ800A is the included Bass Volume Remote Control. This feature allows you to individually adjust the bass from the driver's seat. Whether you're boosting or cutting the bass, the operation is intuitive and efficient. The ability to precisely adjust the bass opens up a variety of sound options that enhance the listening experience. A versatile bass boost from 0 dB to +12 dB at 50 Hz allows the user to respond flexibly to different music genres.

Frequency response from 30Hz to 150Hz for full sound

With a wide frequency response of 30Hz to 150Hz, the ESX subwoofer covers all the low frequencies critical for rich bass. This frequency range allows for the reproduction of deep bass notes, creating a full and vibrant soundstage. Expanding the frequency response would allow the subwoofer to project even deeper bass. The current setting provides a balanced sound that works perfectly in any vehicle interior.

Robust die-cast aluminum housing for clear bass

The Horizon HZ800A's robust die-cast aluminum enclosure not only provides a sleek appearance but also prevents unwanted rattling. This construction ensures clear and distortion-free bass reproduction. An aluminum enclosure also offers the advantage of better heat dissipation, allowing the subwoofer to maintain peak performance for longer periods. The compact design, measuring 289.6 mm x 209.6 mm x 75.0 mm, fits perfectly into a variety of installation locations and allows for flexible mounting options.

High-pass filter and limiter integrated in the Horizon HZ800A subwoofer

The subwoofer's intelligent design incorporates high-pass filters and limiters. These features protect the subwoofer from overload and distortion by eliminating frequencies outside the desired range. This ensures consistent, high-quality performance even under heavy loads. While a high-pass filter only allows frequencies above a certain point to pass through, a limiter minimizes disruptive distortion at high volumes.

Electronic modes with high and low impedance inputs

The ESX subwoofer offers both high-level and low-level inputs, providing versatile connectivity. The high-level input supports voltages from 0.25 V to 20 V, while the low-level input covers a range of 0.1 V to 4.0 V. These flexible inputs enable connectivity with a wide variety of car stereos and signal sources, facilitating integration into the existing sound system. Should expanded input options be required, the subwoofer would be even more compatible with more exotic systems.

Input transmission with crossover frequencies and filter slope

The ESX Horizon HZ800A features a variable crossover frequency adjustable between 50 Hz and 150 Hz with a slope of 12 dB/octave. This crossover frequency allows for fine-tuning of the subwoofer to existing speakers, achieving seamless integration. A steeper filter slope could help filter out unwanted frequencies with even greater precision.

Power consumption and protection in every scenario

With a 15A fuse and a maximum current draw of 13A, the subwoofer is well-positioned for a wide range of power supply scenarios. The quiescent current draw of less than 600mA ensures that the subwoofer doesn't consume unnecessary power even when the vehicle is stationary. A stronger fuse could increase protection, but the current configuration balances performance and safety sensibly.
