SKU: NB2-8D4
The Prodigy Audio NB2-8d4 is a precision-engineered 8-inch subwoofer designed to bridge the gap between space-saving integration and high-output performance. Built with a focus on efficiency and linear control, the NB2-8d4 features an optimized motor assembly that provides a balanced Qts of 0.448, making it highly effective in both compact ported and sealed applications. With an FS of 37.33Hz, this driver is tuned to deliver authoritative low-end extension that belies its 8-inch diameter.
Reliability is driven by a robust motor structure featuring a BL of 17.879, ensuring the Dual 4-ohm voice coil maintains absolute control over the 117.4g moving mass. The NB2 series utilizes a vented backplate to facilitate direct cooling of the coil assembly, mitigating thermal compression during extended high-output sessions. This thermal stability, combined with a 14mm Xmax, allows the NB2-8d4 to maintain its sonic character and "slam" even when pushed toward its mechanical limits in demanding daily-driver environments.
Designed for the modern installer, the NB2-8d4 features a mounting depth of exactly 5.000 inches, making it a viable solution for custom enclosures where traditional high-excursion woofers are too deep. The 7.250-inch cutout and 8.500-inch overall diameter allow for seamless fitment into standard 8-inch baffles. Equipped with heavy-duty terminals and a displacement of only 0.07 ft³, the NB2-8d4 maximizes internal enclosure volume, ensuring that every cubic inch of your air space is working toward maximum acoustic output.

Pro Tip: EBP is just one factor in enclosure design. Always use complete Thiele-Small parameters and modeling software for optimal results. Our custom enclosures are engineered specifically for each subwoofer's parameters.
The Efficiency Bandwidth Product (EBP) is calculated by dividing the subwoofer's resonant frequency (Fs) by its electrical damping (Qes). This single number helps predict which enclosure type will work best with your subwoofer.
