Brax Matrix ML8 Midwoofer
Matrix ML8 MID
2 x 8″ / 200 mm High-End Midwoofer
Brax subwoofers are built without cost constraints for installations where bass quality matters more than budget. German engineering from the team behind Helix, designed for custom enclosures with proper amplification and acoustic integration.
These aren’t plug-and-play bass upgrades – they’re reference-grade components that require professional installation and system tuning.
Made for ultimate kickbass dynamics
For those who are not happy with the maximum dynamics of their 165mm front system, the ML8 MID will make a dream come true. Every detail of this exceptional midwoofer is not only designed for perfect tonality but also made to convert even the highest amplifier power into sound pressure without any compression. The combination with the ML10 subwoofer, the ML3 midrange and the ML1 tweeter finally results in the “dream team”, the absolute maximum that can be realised in a vehicle.
Features
- Exceptional stiff hand-scooped paper cone with unique “MicroSphere” coating consisting of micro ceramic hollow spheres embedded in a polymer layer offers best possible impulse response without any sound colouration
- Special shaped rubber surround for long linear cone excursion
- Hemispherically shaped dustcap for optimization of the frequency response in the midrange area
- Optimized voice coil ventilation through large, mesh-protected holes in T-yoke and basket for almost zero compression effects and maximum heat dissipation
- Special developed, aerodynamically optimized and extremely solid aluminium die-cast basket
- Ultra-precise machined magnet system for highest magnetic flux linearity
- Massive push-terminals for large wire gauge
