Press release | Lavoce Italiana, the transducer company with over 35 years of heritage in designing and manufacturing high-performance HF and LF loudspeaker transducers, announces the launch of the new WAF082.01, a high-output 8” woofer that further strengthens its low-frequency portfolio for professional multi-way loudspeaker systems.
WAF082.01 is a ferrite magnet 8” woofer developed using Lavoce’s advanced low-frequency design methodologies. Its motor and suspension system have been FEM optimized to deliver a smooth frequency response, controlled excursion, and low distortion, while maintaining high efficiency and robust power handling for demanding professional applications.
Equipped with a 2” copper voice coil, the WAF082.01 delivers 500 W program power handling with a high 97 dB sensitivity, making it an ideal solution for compact, high-energy loudspeaker systems where output, reliability, and cost-effectiveness must be carefully balanced. An optimized cooling system ensures stable thermal behaviour under sustained high-power operation, while an integrated copper ring extends the usable frequency range and contributes to reduced distortion and improved clarity in the upper LF band.
With its combination of high output capability, optimized motor design, and rugged mechanical construction, the WAF082.01 is designed to meet the needs of OEM manufacturers and sound system designers seeking a reliable, high-performance 8” woofer for premium professional audio projects.
Kevin Shove, International Sales Director at Lavoce, comments: “The WAF082.01 reinforces our commitment to delivering well-engineered, high-output LF solutions that address real-world system requirements. It provides our OEM and professional audio partners with a compact yet powerful 8” woofer that combines performance, robustness, and strong value for demanding applications.”
