8" All-Purpose Passive Subwoofer

CA-800TSW

Put the finishing touches on any great commercial sound system with the CA-800-TSW all-purpose, indoor/outdoor subwoofer. This compact and rugged passive subwoofer with an internal multi-tap transformer nicely complements the Klipsch CA Series and other small to medium-sized full-range speaker installations by adding high-impact, robust bass.

Building on the success of our popular CA-SW-8T model, the new CA-800-TSW version features enhanced cosmetics, added mounting flexibility and even better performance.

The re-voiced CA-800-TSW shakes things up and delivers a deep, driving sound through an 8-inch, long excursion driver that has a high-temperature voice coil attached to an IMG cone that is light weight and offers excellent rigidity and water resistance.

Available in black or white, this model has a durable UV-resistant all-weather enclosure and internal multi-tap transformer that allows 70-volt, 100-volt or pass through 6 ohm operation. It also features a re-designed grille that stays securely fastened and incorporates a new paint formulation for increased weather resistance and years of maintenance-free protection regardless of the climate or environment.

The included heavy gauge zinc C-bracket provides added mounting strength. It attaches to the enclosure’s integral “center-of-gravity balanced” threaded studs that are positioned inside the speaker and to the oversized knobs, ensuring positive position-lock.

The CA-800-TSW’s improved input cup allows for easier drainage and the added 3/8”-16 threaded inserts for use with optional mounts offers better placement flexibility.
