Four Drivers, One Cabinet

Four eights is how you get cone area without depth. It is a little less cone area than two twelves, in cabinets shallow enough to sit behind a seat that a bigger driver would not clear.

Every cabinet on this page is sealed and holds four 8 inch drivers, each in its own chamber behind a bonded full-height divider. The driver-matched cabinets are cut from the parameters the driver's maker publishes, and the universal cabinets take any set that clears their cutout and mounting depth. Each listing states the net volume for the whole cabinet and the figure per chamber, which is what one driver actually works into.

Sealed quad 8 inch cabinets, wedge and standard front-firing, 38, 40 or 44 inches wide.

Cut, assembled and finished in Tullahoma, Tennessee. Shipping included.

Driver-matched cabinets are cut from the parameters each driver's maker publishes. Enclosure only unless the listing says loaded.

Quad 8 Inch Subwoofer Box Questions

Do the four drivers share one chamber?

No. Every cabinet on this page splits the volume with bonded full-height dividers, so each driver gets its own sealed air space and its own polyfill. The listing states the total net volume and the figure per chamber.

Is the net volume per driver or for the whole box?

The headline figure is for the whole cabinet. Each listing also gives the per-chamber volume, which is what one driver is working into and the number the alignment was solved from.

How wide is a quad 8 inch box?

They are built on 3 platforms, 38, 40 or 44 inches wide, and every listing prints its full external dimensions. Width is the constraint at this driver count, so measure the narrowest point of the opening first.

What impedance will four subwoofers give me?

Each chamber has its own terminal cup, so you choose the coil wiring on each driver and then how the two cups are joined. With the cups in parallel, four dual 4 ohm drivers reach 2 ohms with the coils in series or 0.5 ohms with them in parallel; dual 2 ohm drivers reach 1 ohm or 0.25 ohms. Putting each chamber's pair in series, or the two cups in series, lands on 8 and 2 ohms instead, or 4 and 1. Match the final load to the amplifier's minimum stable impedance rather than chasing the lowest figure. Calculate impedance for multiple subwoofers works through any set.

Can I run different subwoofers in one cabinet?

No. Run four of the same model at the same impedance. Each chamber is cut for a matched pair, so an odd driver changes both the volume its chamber is working into and the load on that chamber's cup.

Are there ported quad 8 inch boxes?

Not from us. At four drivers the extra volume a port needs no longer fits in the space that made the high driver count worth doing. Vented builds are single and dual cabinets, on the ported page.

Is a quad 8 better than two twelves?

They move close to the same air. Four eights spread it over more motors with less moving mass on each, which starts and stops faster and shares the heat; Two twelves get there with fewer drivers to buy, mount and wire, and a simpler final impedance. What will physically go in the space usually settles it. The dual subwoofer setup guide covers the trade in detail.
