Review: 「wander pure. wp-084pb」というダブルバスレフタイプの自作キットに組み込んでの感想です。テーブルトップとしてはかなり大きめのとなりますが、スピーカースタンド等を介さずとも自然な聴取高さとなります。 この箱の低音増幅力といえば、８㌢級でもサブウーファー不要！むしろ抑えるのに悩む程かも（笑） 試聴はクラシック交響楽＋男性＆女性ボーカルＲ＆Ｂ＋90，フュージョン＋渓流から草原界隈のお散歩“生録ロク”音源。 事前に 音工房「Ｚ-modene-MK２」とフォステクス「PW80K」を同箱に装着した上での“個人的比較評価”です。 MK２は中高音域の艶やかな響きや上品な響きは逸品ですが、逆に中低音域の生々しい肉迫感は少し淡白な印象。 そこでPW80ｋを試してみたところ、さすがに低〜中音域の分厚さは増したものの、全体に音像がボケて「Hi-Fi」？と思われて即撤収。 本機は、先ずマグネットがかなり大きくて取り付けの際は端子部分が要注意です。 さて視聴の印象として、小口径フルレンジスピーカーとは思えない高低音の音圧バランスの良さ。８㌢級唯一のウーファーであるPW80Kよりも低いfo＋太いボイスコイル経＋素材？云々…低音〜音声域の再現力は優れていると思います。数十年も聞き馴染んでいた“カシオペア−ライブ”のCD音盤で、ホールの反響音迄が聞き取れるとは!! 中高音域は“艶・響き”の要で、低音フェチであればあるほど拘る音域(笑)ですが、それもかなり緻密な解像度で再現!! 音道楽は、先ず出口と入口を堅める事が８割!! まさにそのセオリーを 今回再体感いたしました。 Review: Fue una adaptación, al final no quedó instalada pero produce buen sonido. ## Features - Smooth response with true full-range reproduction for simple speaker designs - Poly damped woven glass fiber cone controls cone break-up and provides a smooth roll-off - Copper cap keeps inductance under control and extends high frequency response - High energy ferrite magnet increases BL for higher efficiency and more output - Great for MTM bookshelves, car audio, or line arrays ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0751B1Z61 | | Additional Features | Durable | | Antenna Location | car | | Audio Driver Size | 83 Millimeters | | Audio Driver Type | Dynamic Driver | | Audio Output Mode | Surround | | Best Sellers Rank | #161,491 in Electronics ( See Top 100 in Electronics ) #1,968 in Car Coaxial Speakers | | Brand | Dayton Audio | | Built-In Media | 1 x Speaker | | Compatible Devices | Smartphone, Tablet, MP3 Player, Desktop, Television, Projector, Laptop | | Compatible with Vehicle Type | Car | | Connectivity Protocol | Auxiliary | | Connectivity Technology | Auxiliary | | Control Method | Touch | | Controller Type | Button | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 78 Reviews | | Enclosure Material | Poly Composite | | Is Waterproof | FALSE | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 1.97"D x 2.2"W x 1.97"H | | Item Weight | 1.2 Pounds | | MP3 player | No | | Manufacturer | Dayton Audio | | Material | Poly Composite | | Model Name | PC83-8 | | Model Number | PC83-8-S | | Mounting Type | Flush Mount | | Number Of Circuits | 1 | | Number of Audio Channels | 3.0 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Power Levels | 1 | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Speaker Maximum Output Power | 30 Watts | | Speaker Size | 3 Inches | | Speaker Type | Surround Sound | | Subwoofer Connectivity Technology | Wired | | UPC | 848791004018 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Type | Standard | | Woofer Diameter | 7.62 Centimeters | ## Product Details - **Brand:** DAYTONAUDIO - **Speaker maximum output power:** 30 Watts - **Connectivity technology:** Bluetooth - **Audio output mode:** Surround - **Mounting type:** Tabletop - **Model name:** PC83-8 - **Speaker type:** Bookshelf - **Special feature:** Portable - **Recommended uses for product:** car - **Compatible devices:** Laptop, Personal Computer, Projector, Smartphone, Tablet, Television ## Images ![Dayton Audio PC83-8 3" Full-Range Poly Cone Driver - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81P74r9J9KL.jpg) ![Dayton Audio PC83-8 3" Full-Range Poly Cone Driver - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81upx-blgrL.jpg) ![Dayton Audio PC83-8 3" Full-Range Poly Cone Driver - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81Xl-Cbx3PL.jpg) ![Dayton Audio PC83-8 3" Full-Range Poly Cone Driver - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81Q2+1Z1O7L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: What watts is this speaker** A: This is 30watt RMS speaker **Q: Is this a pair?** A: No single soeaker **Q: Is there any enclosure dimensions?** A: No enclosure dimensions are given but if you have a copy of bass box you could input the given specs for this driver to get a given enclosure size. I run two of these in a common .25 sealed enclosure does the job nicely. **Q: What are the overall dimensions?** A: I made a odd shape out of fiberglass mat and resin but internal volume of the enclosure is about .25 shared space between two drivers crossed over at about 90hz high pass ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by 竹***潤 on 25 March 2023* 「wander pure. wp-084pb」というダブルバスレフタイプの自作キットに組み込んでの感想です。テーブルトップとしてはかなり大きめのとなりますが、スピーカースタンド等を介さずとも自然な聴取高さとなります。 この箱の低音増幅力といえば、８㌢級でもサブウーファー不要！むしろ抑えるのに悩む程かも（笑） 試聴はクラシック交響楽＋男性＆女性ボーカルＲ＆Ｂ＋90，フュージョン＋渓流から草原界隈のお散歩“生録ロク”音源。 事前に 音工房「Ｚ-modene-MK２」とフォステクス「PW80K」を同箱に装着した上での“個人的比較評価”です。 MK２は中高音域の艶やかな響きや上品な響きは逸品ですが、逆に中低音域の生々しい肉迫感は少し淡白な印象。 そこでPW80ｋを試してみたところ、さすがに低〜中音域の分厚さは増したものの、全体に音像がボケて「Hi-Fi」？と思われて即撤収。 本機は、先ずマグネットがかなり大きくて取り付けの際は端子部分が要注意です。 さて視聴の印象として、小口径フルレンジスピーカーとは思えない高低音の音圧バランスの良さ。８㌢級唯一のウーファーであるPW80Kよりも低いfo＋太いボイスコイル経＋素材？云々…低音〜音声域の再現力は優れていると思います。数十年も聞き馴染んでいた“カシオペア−ライブ”のCD音盤で、ホールの反響音迄が聞き取れるとは!! 中高音域は“艶・響き”の要で、低音フェチであればあるほど拘る音域(笑)ですが、それもかなり緻密な解像度で再現!! 音道楽は、先ず出口と入口を堅める事が８割!! まさにそのセオリーを 今回再体感いたしました。 ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by L***A on 2 November 2022* Fue una adaptación, al final no quedó instalada pero produce buen sonido. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by A***X on 30 December 2025* Really good drivers for the price.
