Tang Band W8-2022 8" RBM Subwoofer 8 OhmTang Band designed their revolutionary RBM (Real Balanced Mode) flat subwoofers for ultra-linear operation, while remaining as thin as possible. The secret to their low distortion performance is in the patented symmetrical suspension system.
While most subwoofers rely upon a spider/surround combination to keep the cone travel linear, Tang Band has developed a new injection molding process that incorporates front and rear cones, as well as dual opposed surrounds.
Similar to an isobaric subwoofer alignment, the two cones work together to modulate a single column of air, reducing non-linear harmonic distortion. The added mass of the rear cone/surround assembly also reduces free air resonance.
Tang Band's W8-2022 8" RBM flat panel subwoofer features extensive venting on the rear cone, voice coil former, and back plate to keep the large, overhung, 3" voice coil cool. A bumped back plate allows for momentary moments of over-excursion without damage. Additionally, it offers low distortion frequency response that reaches down to 25 Hz.
