The Peerless by Tymphany PL14WJ09-08 is a meticulously engineered 5-inch mid-woofer from the renowned Scan-Speak brand, designed to deliver exceptional clarity and detail in the midbass region. This 8-ohm driver is an ideal choice for audiophiles and DIY enthusiasts seeking to construct high-fidelity loudspeakers, whether for a two-way bookshelf design or as part of a multi-channel home theatre system. Its compact form factor makes it equally suited for use in automotive audio installations where space is at a premium but performance cannot be compromised.

Technically, this driver boasts a sensitivity of 86 dB (SPL 1m/2.83V), ensuring efficient power handling and dynamic response. The total Q factor (Qts) of 0.38, combined with a mechanical Q (Qms) of 2.2 and an electromagnetic Q (Qes) of 0.46, indicates a well-damped, controlled behaviour ideal for sealed or ported enclosures. With a resonance frequency (Fs) of 47 Hz and a maximum power handling of 25 watts, it reproduces deep, articulate bass without distortion. The 5.8-ohm DC resistance and low voice coil inductance (Le) of 0.49 mH further enhance transient response and detail retrieval. Measuring 149 mm in overall diameter with a mounting depth of 70.9 mm, this driver integrates seamlessly into your next project, delivering the refined, accurate midbass performance that discerning listeners demand.
