With an impressive peak power of 500 watts and a continuous power rating of 250 watts combined with a 4-ohm voice coil, this subwoofer offers the perfect balance between power and efficiency. Its maximum 500 watts enables it to reproduce low frequencies with impressive volume and clarity. At Masori.de, you can count on our lowest price guarantee to ensure you get this outstanding device at the best price. The APBX 8 R is perfect for integration into any car, as its bass reflex design is optimally matched to the efficiency of the 4-ohm configuration to extract maximum power from any amplifier. This specific design effortlessly harnesses the natural power rise below 60 Hz to provide a powerful compression chamber effect.

The innovative bass reflex design of the 8-inch subwoofer explains

At the heart of the Prima APBX 8 R from Audison is its sophisticated bass reflex design, which ensures powerful and precise sound in the lower frequency range. By efficiently utilizing the natural power increase below 60 Hz, this subwoofer offers enhanced bass reproduction that raises the standard for compact car hi-fi. The reflex enclosure positively influences excursion across the entire audio spectrum, resulting in improved bass optimization. Thanks to the bass reflex technology, resonances, which can often lead to unwanted distortion, are kept in check. A closed design would result in a less present and dynamic bass, as the natural frequency amplification of the bass reflex principle is eliminated.

An ultra-slim case with impressive sound

The Audison Prima APBX 8 R impresses with its ultra-slim cabinet, measuring just 109 mm in height, which is remarkable for its performance. This slim design allows for easy integration into the trunk without wasting unnecessary space. Despite its shallow depth, the cabinet delivers impressive bass performance thanks to its precise port design. Often, a more voluminous cabinet allows for better bass development, but in the APBX 8 R, the cabinet has been optimally tuned to ensure no compromise on sound volume despite its compact design. A taller cabinet could potentially achieve even deeper bass, but the current design already provides an excellent balance between size and sound quality.

Flexible mounting options for individual sound

A highlight of the Audison Prima APBX 8 R is the innovative 2S² design, which offers two different sound characteristics depending on the mounting option. Choose between down-firing installation to enhance the low frequencies or up-firing installation for more punch and definition. This flexibility allows you to perfectly adapt the sound signature to the acoustic conditions of your vehicle. Having only one mounting option available could significantly limit the adaptability of the sound. Down-firing installation optimizes the low bass in your vehicle, whereas up-firing installation ensures a more dynamic bass response.

Additional accessories for safe and convenient installation

The Audison Prima APBX 8 R's Velcro-type leveling feet ensure both secure support on carpeted surfaces and easy removal. This clever feature not only provides stability while driving, but also flexibility when positioning the subwoofer in the trunk. Without these mounts, the subwoofer could slip while driving on uneven roads, potentially compromising sound quality or even becoming damaged. The robust yet easily removable mounting keeps the subwoofer firmly anchored while allowing it to be quickly repositioned if necessary.

The durable construction of the subwoofer motor explains

The motor assembly of the Audison Prima APBX 8 R has been optimized using the finite element method (FEM) to ensure maximum control over excursions. This advanced technology ensures that the subwoofer always operates precisely and with control, even in demanding bass passages. A less optimized motor assembly could lead to faster wear or inaccurate bass reproduction. Thanks to FEM optimization, the subwoofer remains stable even at high excursions, which positively impacts both the longevity of the unit and the sound quality.

Intelligent connection options with SSP (Sub Smart Plug)

The Audison Prima APBX 8 R features the innovative Sub Smart Plug (SSP) system, which offers traditional pressure contacts and a plug-and-play terminal block. This allows for instant impedance matching during installation, ensuring quick and easy setup. Such a flexible connection system saves valuable installation time and allows for quick integration into the existing car hi-fi setup. Without this functionality, connection could take longer and be less seamless, potentially compromising the overall user experience.

Aerodynamic design to reduce resonances

The rounded corners of the Audison Prima APBX 8 R not only lend a sleek appearance, but also fulfill the important function of minimizing resonance. This aerodynamic design deflects disruptive sound waves that could otherwise negatively impact the sound. Solid edges could create unnecessary vibrations, which would be particularly audible at higher volumes. The optimized shape helps keep the sound pure and undisturbed, which is especially crucial in a confined space such as a vehicle interior.

High-quality materials for superior sound quality

The subwoofer of the Audison Prima APBX 8 R utilizes a water-resistant, pressed paper cone reinforced with cotton fibers to ensure both durability and accurate sound reproduction. This material combination allows for greater control and precision in the low-frequency range than conventional paper mesh. A less robust material could negatively impact the subwoofer's durability and condition over time. The material also ensures consistent bass even in challenging weather conditions.

Can be combined with various amplifier options

The Audison Prima APBX 8 R was specifically designed to work optimally with amplifiers such as the AP8.9 bit or AP4.9 bit / AP4 D in bridged mode. The bass boost function and the DSP's integrated parametric equalizer enable exceptionally fine-tuned bass reproduction. These compatibility features offer a wealth of adjustment options to optimally tune the bass to your preferences. Without the option of using a high-quality amplifier, the bass reproduction might seem less powerful. Pairing with these specialized amplifiers increases the subwoofer's versatility and allows you to fully exploit its sonic potential.

Metal grille to protect the subwoofer driver

The Audison Prima APBX 8 R's sturdy metal grille reliably protects the sensitive subwoofer driver from external influences and damage. The protective grille effectively prevents damage caused by objects in the trunk and ensures the longevity of the unit by fending off potential physical impacts. Without this protective measure, the speaker and its performance could potentially be compromised, which in turn would negatively impact the sound quality. The robust grille also ensures that the sound remains consistently clear even under adverse conditions. On-site installation in Frankfurt (Oder) Expert Support FAQ & Help Audio Blog
