Installed at Mediocre Customs, Cary IL. It's one of the easiest ways to add real bass to a factory system, and we install it at our Cary shop without giving up your cargo space.
The ESB 3.WB8 is an all-in-one active subwoofer: an 8" (200 mm) fiberglass/paper cone driver and a built-in 600 W Class-D amplifier in an MDF enclosure only 15 cm deep, with a remote control. The 3000 Series ("Research at the Highest Level") is built on ESB's materials research: baskets engineered for torsional rigidity, pressed-paper cones with a waterproof treatment, Y-35 ferrite woofer motors and silk-impregnated fabric tweeter domes for a smooth sound.
