8" All-Purpose Passive Subwoofer
CA-SW-8T
■
Rugged, weather-resistant, and efficient, the
CA-SW-8T is a great way to add warmth and
body to a wide variety of indoor and
outdoor audio installations. A built-in multitap transformer with 70-volt (7.5 to 60
watts), 100-volt (15 to 60 watts), and 6ohm-bypass settings makes it compatible
with all types of distributed-sound systems.
The subwoofer also has a 150Hz,
12dB/octave low-pass crossover to simplify
setup, whether with matching Klipsch CA
Series speakers or with other small fullrange models. And it requires only modest
amplifier power to deliver satisfying
output levels.

The CA-SW-8T’s 8-inch, long-excursion
driver produces extended, powerful bass
from its front-ported enclosure. The driver
uses a rigid, water-resistant injectionmolded graphite (IMG) cone joined to a
high-temperature voice coil for consistent,
reliable performance.
Available in black or white, the subwoofer’s
paintable, UV
removable, powder
-resistant ABS cabinet has a
-coated aluminum grille
for long, trouble-free service. It is compact
and light enough for easy movement,
handling, and installation. For wall- or
ceiling-mounting, the CA-SW-8T comes
with an aluminum C
-style bracket that
attaches with oversize, positive-lock knobs
to threaded stainless steel studs in the sides
of the cabinet. A safety retainer on the
cabinet allows a secondary attachment point
to prevent drop damage.
