Kicker 47KBRW8 ReFLEX 8" Passive Radiator Subwoofer For Sub Box Enclosures
Are you searching for a way to achieve impressive bass in your vehicle's audio system without sacrificing space? Look no further than the Kicker 47KBRW8 ReFLEX 8" Passive Radiator Subwoofer. Designed to deliver a big boom even in boxes with low internal volumes, this passive radiator allows you to experience the punch of a ported box in a compact sealed enclosure.
The Challenge of Ports and Limited Space
When it comes to subwoofer enclosures, ports are commonly used to enhance bass response. However, ports require larger enclosures to be effective, which can be problematic if you have limited space in your vehicle or prefer a smaller subwoofer box. Additionally, ports can sometimes produce unwanted noise and turbulence, affecting the overall sound quality.
Unlocking Powerful Bass with the Kicker 47KBRW8 ReFLEX
The Kicker 47KBRW8 ReFLEX 8" Passive Radiator Subwoofer addresses these challenges by offering an innovative solution to enhance bass performance in smaller enclosures. By utilizing a passive radiator, this exceptional product allows you to experience the deep, resonant bass typically associated with larger ported enclosures.
When paired with a compatible 8" subwoofer, such as the Kicker CompRT subwoofer, the 47KBRW8 ReFLEX unlocks the potential to create an impactful audio experience within a confined space. With a recommended box volume of just 0.4 cubic feet, this combination seamlessly integrates into your vehicle without compromising audio quality.
How Does a Passive Radiator Work?
Unlike traditional subwoofers that rely on ports, a passive radiator generates sound through the movement of air within the enclosure. The passive radiator consists of a woofer cone and a weighted mass attached to the back. As the active subwoofer produces sound, the passive radiator resonates and moves in response, effectively amplifying the low-frequency output.
Tuned for Optimal Performance
The Kicker 47KBRW8 ReFLEX Passive Radiator is meticulously tuned to enhance bass response in a 0.4 cubic feet air space. With a specific tuning frequency of 49 Hz, it ensures that you experience deep, powerful bass notes that enrich your music and elevate your audio system.
Seamless Integration and Optional Grille
The Kicker 47KBRW8 ReFLEX Passive Radiator is designed to work harmoniously in a dual 8" enclosure or with a single 8" subwoofer in a 0.4 cubic feet enclosure. Its compact size provides flexibility in installation, making it ideal for vehicles with limited space.
Please note that the grille is not included with the passive radiator. However, you have the option to enhance the appearance and provide additional protection by purchasing a compatible grille separately.
Unleashing Powerful Bass in Compact Enclosures
The Kicker 47KBRW8 ReFLEX 8" Passive Radiator Subwoofer is the ultimate choice for enhancing your vehicle's audio system with powerful bass. With its unique design, it enables you to experience the impact of a ported box in a compact sealed enclosure, allowing for more placement options within your vehicle. With precise tuning, exceptional performance, and the option to add a grille, this passive radiator takes your audio experience to the next level.
