Tang Band W8-2314

Tang-Band W8-2314 – High-End 8″ Coaxial Loudspeaker Driver

The Tang Band W8-2314 is an exceptional 8-inch coaxial speaker that combines a high-performance woofer with a 25 mm (1″) hi-res concentric tweeter at its center. Designed for true audiophile sound reproduction, this point-source driver delivers an incredible frequency response from 38 Hz up to 40,000 Hz while completely avoiding the phase and lobing issues typical of standard 2-way setups.

Key Features & Engineering Highlights

• 25 mm Al/Mg Dome Tweeter with Back Chamber: The tweeter features an aluminum-magnesium alloy membrane paired with a dedicated rear resonant chamber (enhanced with ferrofluid for optimal electrical and mechanical performance). It performs effortlessly from 800 Hz up to 40,000 Hz, offering silky-smooth high-frequency extension both on and off-axis.
• Bamboo Fiber Paper Cone: The 8-inch woofer utilizes Tang Band’s famous lightweight yet rigid bamboo fiber paper cone, fitted with a durable, specially damped rubber surround for natural, uncolored midrange and deep, precise bass.
• Advanced Underhung Neodymium Motor: Built with a powerful neodymium magnet system utilizing aerospace-grade alloy and meticulously optimized polar plates. This advanced underhung voice coil architecture drastically reduces 2nd and 3rd harmonic distortion (THD) for maximum transparency.
• Rigid & Lightweight Basket: The driver is housed in a robust chassis made from a specialized nylon and glass fiber composite, guaranteeing both extreme rigidity and minimal weight.
