Scan-Speak Discovery, 22W/4534G00, 8" Midwoofer, 4 ohm

• NRSC Fibre Glass Cone; Scan-Speak Patented Technology
• Fibre Glass dust cap
• High sensitivity 92dB
• Long Linear excursion
• 30Hz Resonance Frequency
• Diecast Aluminium basket
• Vents below spider
• Low damping rubber surround

• 0.55 cubic foot (15.5 ltrs) sealed, F3 70
• 1 cubic foot (28 ltrs) vented, 2" x 6“, F3 49

The GF series is designed for the discerning audiophile customer. To meet the needs of this audience, several new technologies were developed with the goal of lowering distortion and damping in the speaker. The coated fiberglass cone reduces vibration and standing waves, and the vented motor system minimizes power compression. The combined result is a very open and dynamic sound.

The 22W/4434G has the same frame size and should be considered as a replacement for the PL22WO09-04 or the MG22WO09-04.
