FaitalPRO 5FE100-8F Bass-midwoofer

The FaitalPRO 5FE100-8F is a meticulously engineered 5-inch bass-midwoofer that delivers exceptional clarity and dynamic mid-bass reproduction, making it an ideal choice for discerning audio enthusiasts and professional system designers. This 8-ohm driver is perfectly suited for compact, high-fidelity loudspeaker designs, including two-way bookshelf monitors, small-format sound reinforcement systems, and automotive audio installations where space is at a premium but performance cannot be compromised. Its robust construction and carefully optimised parameters ensure it excels in sealed and ported enclosures, providing tight, controlled low-end response and articulate midrange presence.

Technically, the 5FE100-8F features a 127 mm nominal diameter with a 114 mm cut-out and a 133 mm bolt circle for straightforward installation. The 5.25 mm linear excursion (Xmax) allows for impressive dynamic range, while the 88 dB sensitivity (1m/2.83V) ensures efficient power handling. The driver’s total Q factor of 0.45, derived from a mechanical Q of 8.2 and an electrical Q of 0.48, indicates a well-damped alignment suitable for accurate bass reproduction. A copper voice coil with 0.53 mH inductance and a DC resistance of 5.4 ohms contributes to low distortion and excellent thermal stability. With a mechanical loss factor (Rms) of 0.52, this woofer delivers reliable, high-quality performance in any demanding audio application.
