Dayton Audio DC130BS-8 5-1/4" Classic Shielded Woofer

The Dayton Audio DC130BS-8 is a 5-1/4-inch classic shielded woofer engineered to deliver accurate mid-bass and bass reproduction in compact enclosures. This versatile driver is ideally suited for high-fidelity audio systems, including bookshelf speakers, centre channels, and small subwoofer designs where space is at a premium but performance cannot be compromised. Its shielded construction makes it particularly well-suited for use near CRT televisions or other magnetically sensitive equipment, ensuring clean integration into home theatre setups.

Technically, this woofer features a copper voice coil and a robust motor assembly that provide excellent control and low distortion. With a total Q factor (Qts) of 0.39 and a maximum linear excursion (Xmax) of 2.5 mm, it offers a balanced response suitable for both sealed and ported enclosures. The sensitivity of 88.9 dB (1m/2.83V) ensures efficient power handling, while the 5.8 ohm DC resistance and 0.82 mH voice coil inductance contribute to stable amplifier loading. The woofer’s nominal diameter is 133.4 mm, with a cut-out diameter of 12 mm and a mounting depth of 77.4 mm, making it easy to integrate into a variety of cabinet designs.

Combining classic design with modern engineering, the DC130BS-8 delivers the precise, controlled bass that discerning listeners demand, all within a compact, shielded package.
