Features
Vented Enclosure: The Audio Control Spike Series SPK-V8 Vented Enclosure is constructed of high-density wood fiberboard with internal bracing, providing maximum durability and resonance control. A dual-front mounting baffle provides additional strength and rigidity to the enclosure, while keeping the driver firmly in place. The vented subwoofer enclosure is filled with poly-fiber for controlled sound and tight, accurate bass response. The outside of the SPK-V8 is coated in Roadkill Armor and wrapped in marine-grade vinyl for a sleek finish.
SPK-8S2 Subwoofer: The Audio Control SPK-V8 Vented Enclosure is loaded with a single 8″ SPK-8S2 subwoofer. The high-excursion driver features a fiber matrix paper cone, with mica coating, and a dual dust cap system for enclosure compression control. The heavy-duty motor system features a 2″ diameter voice coil with a 3-layer, high-temperature former for maximum efficiency. The SPK-8S2 subwoofer is protected by a removable metal-mesh grille.
Power Handling: Audio Control’s power range for the 2-ohm subwoofer is 200-500W RMS (350W recommended).
Connections: The SPK-V8 features two connection methods:
- Spring Posts: A pair of spring posts can accept speaker wire up to 8-gauge in size.
- Quick-Plug Harness: A removable 6″ 2-pin harness, with bare-ended 12-gauge wires, provides a quick-connection method that can easily be plugged and unplugged from the enclosure.
Mounting: Two mounting brackets, left and right, are provided. Threaded holes on either side of the enclosure let you attach each bracket using the provided machine screws. Additional self-tapping screws can be used for attaching the brackets to a trunk or floor pan.
