Lavoce Italiana, the premium transducer company with a heritage of over 35 years designing and manufacturing high performance HF and LF loudspeaker components, are presenting their new weather-resistant 8” common HF/LF magnet coaxial with ABS basket at ISE 2025.
CPF082.00K is the ideal high performance 8” coaxial component solution for OEM manufacturers looking to design a high-powered permanent outdoor speaker. Features include a corrosion resistant ABS basket, waterproof acoustically transparent dust cap and waterproof treatment on the front side of the cone and surround. The common motor magnet structure adopts component parts from LAVOCE’s industry-leading range of compression drivers and features a single magnet low distortion ‘dual gap’ motor designed by their Italian R&D team using proprietary advanced linear modelling techniques.
Adapted from their successful steel basket version CSF082.00K, the weather resistant CPF082.00K maintains a similar premium performance with 400W Program power handling and 95.5dB sensitivity for the LF and 70W Program power handling and 103.5dB sensitivity for the HF. The LF woofer uses a 2” edgewound copper voice coil on a glass fiber former and the Polyimide diaphragm and surround employed for the HF uses a 1.4” copper-clad aluminium voice coil on a Kapton former. This combination offers a frequency range of 90-20000Hz with low harmonic and intermodulation distortion due to the addition of two demodulating rings.
Kevin Shove, International Sales Director, says, “CPF082.00K comes from a version we created for our Group’s marine audio division which has been very successful, so we decided to show this strength and capability in our LAVOCE catalogue. We think it is quite a unique device considering its weather-resistant features and high-performance specification and is already gaining a lot of interest from our OEM partners.”
