Peerless SDS-983855, 4-inch Woofer, 8 ohm

The SDS-P830855 is a compact 4" woofer from Peerless's SDS series, designed to give a low resonant frequency from a small driver and optimised for sealed enclosures. It pairs a coated paper cone with a durable NBR rubber surround, driven by a ferrite magnet motor and a 25.8 mm voice coil, all housed in a pressed steel basket with a truncated frame that fits narrow cabinets.

With 5 mm of linear excursion and a 66 Hz resonance, it works well as the bass/mid driver in small two-way speakers, as a midrange in three-way systems, or as a compact sealed subwoofer.
