Musway MG8

The Musway MG8 is a powerful 20 cm (8-inch) subwoofer that combines high-quality craftsmanship, precise bass reproduction, and a sophisticated design. With a 300-watt RMS power handling capacity, a generously sized dual-magnet design, and a sturdy cast-aluminum basket, it provides the ideal foundation for powerful and controlled bass.

The meticulously crafted cast aluminum basket features large ventilation openings that support efficient cooling of the driver. The specially developed dual-polycotton centering spiders ensure controlled cone movement even at high excursion levels. A lightweight CCAW voice coil and the robust paper diaphragm enable dynamic and precise bass reproduction.

Thanks to its optimized Thiele-Small parameters, the MG8 is suitable for both compact sealed enclosures and high-performance bass-reflex designs. While sealed enclosures deliver particularly precise bass, bass-reflex designs offer more powerful low-frequency response. The pre-installed protective grille rounds out the high-quality construction.
