Lightweight Carbon Fiber with Efficient Motor Cooling

A woven carbon fiber cone gives the CFC120-8 a stiff, lightweight diaphragm that helps maintain clarity across its broad operating range. Its rigid construction helps resist unwanted flexing as output increases, keeping vocals, instruments, and other critical midrange content clean and detailed. The distinctive woven finish also gives the driver a premium appearance that stands out well beyond its affordable price.

A 25 mm 2-layer voice coil wound on an aluminum former provides a lightweight and responsive foundation for the moving assembly. The vented pole piece provides airflow through the motor to improve voice coil cooling and help reduce power compression during demanding use. Combined with the ferrite magnet, this design helps the CFC120-8 maintain consistent performance as listening levels increase.

Useful Bass Extension with Versatile Mounting

With 2.5 mm of Xmax and response extending down to 50 Hz, the CFC120-8 delivers useful low-frequency capability for a compact 4-1/2" driver. Its low-loss rubber surround and large-diameter flat spider provide stable suspension and allow smooth, controlled cone movement throughout its excursion range. A poly dust cap adds damping to help control unwanted resonances.

The CFC120-8’s broad frequency response makes it an excellent choice for compact 2-way speaker designs, providing useful bass extension while reaching high enough to integrate with a wide variety of tweeters. Its low-profile stamped steel frame is suitable for both flush and surface mounting, giving builders additional flexibility when enclosure depth or installation space is limited. The 8Ω impedance also provides convenient options for single- and multiple-driver system configurations.
