After upgrading main speakers for clear mids and highs, contrast to the muddy bass of old active 8" Jamo210 subwoofer was too much. The Jamo210 has well made box and working amp though, so why not a new woofer only. Weeks of browsing and studying options, i decided on this affordable Dayton 205-4. Soundimport webshopping experience was flawless, and speaker was sent the same day. Installation was straight forward, however a small job to ...

Great Subwoofer - works very well in Mordaunt-Short Alumni 9 Subwoofer cabinet. The original speaker was worn out after 9 years of use. It has a huge magnet with very long throw and was very good for music and a huge hit that could pound the floor (if used as part of Home Theatre) for special effects. The new speaker is long throw but with a much smaller magnet assembly and was slightly smaller than the original (22.5 cm versus 20.8 cm for the...

Ich habe ihn in ein 21l Gehäuse verbaut. Bassreflex Schlitz 44cm lang und eine Oberfläche von rund 33cm². Er hat so eine 3db Erhöhung auf der Tuningfrequenz zwischen 30 und 40Hz. Dafür spielt er mit vollem Pegel bis 27Hz runter. Ich kann keine Fehler feststellen und er tut das was ich erwartet habe. I have installed it in a 21l cabinet.

The speaker replaced a broken speaker in the recently bought Subwoofer Jamo sub 200. The bass is tight and it sounds quite musical as well. I believe it is an excellent choice for such replacements.

Klinkt uitstekend in een kast van 20 liter (netto) met basreflex van 69 * 400mm. Erg diepe bas. Enige planning nodig om die pijp in de kast kwijt te kunnen. PP buis 75mm met een 90 graden bocht.

I ordered 2x4ohm 8" DCS205-4 speakers using the DHL express option. I was happy that the delivery went without a hitch (which is not always the case where I live!) The speakers work very well (although a bit bassey) - particularly considering the price. I am not an audiophile but I found that these speakers provide a near perfect (including the screw holes) .replacement for my Boston Acoustic A70 speakers which are no longer available unless ...
