Fonestar LIGNUM-8SUB 8" 250W High-Power Passive Subwoofer, 8 Ohm - Black
DETAILS
The Fonestar LIGNUM-8SUB is a compact 8" 250W High-Power Passive Subwoofer delivering 124dB peak SPL and omnidirectional low-frequency coverage — purpose-built to complement LIGNUM full-range speakers in professional fixed installations requiring powerful, controlled bass reinforcement.
The Fonestar LIGNUM-8SUB has been designed to seamlessly extend the low-frequency performance of LIGNUM full-range wall speakers in professional fixed installations across bars, restaurants, gyms, retail environments and other commercial venues.
Where full-range speakers reach the limits of their low-frequency capability, the LIGNUM-8SUB takes over — delivering deep, controlled and impactful bass reinforcement from a compact 330 x 410 x 308mm cabinet that is practical to install in a wide range of environments. With 250W RMS, a peak SPL of 124dB and a frequency response extending down to 46.7Hz at -10dB, the LIGNUM-8SUB adds the low-frequency depth, energy and physical presence that transforms a good-sounding installation into a genuinely immersive one.
High-Performance Transducer
At the heart of the LIGNUM-8SUB is an 8" woofer featuring a pressed paper fibre cone, ferrite magnet and 38mm copper wire voice coil — engineered for consistent, reliable performance in demanding AV and fixed installation applications. With a sensitivity of 94dB at 1W/1m, the LIGNUM-8SUB achieves considerable output levels without excessive amplifier power, whilst its low total harmonic distortion ensures remarkable sound fidelity and a clean, controlled bass response even at high output levels. The built-in bass reflex design optimises low-frequency performance from the compact enclosure, maximising efficiency and extending the bass response for a fuller, more impactful sound.
Omnidirectional Coverage
The LIGNUM-8SUB's omnidirectional low-frequency dispersion pattern ensures uniform bass coverage throughout the listening area — a key advantage in distributed installation environments where consistent low-frequency energy across the entire space is essential. Whether deployed as a single subwoofer in a smaller venue or as part of a larger multi-subwoofer distributed system, the LIGNUM-8SUB integrates naturally with the acoustic environment for seamless, well-balanced bass reinforcement.
Flexible Connectivity
The LIGNUM-8SUB provides comprehensive connectivity options to suit a wide range of professional installation configurations. Both input and output connections are provided via a 2-pin safety Euroblock and a 4-pole speaker connector (1+, 1-, 2+, 2-) on each side, enabling straightforward integration with amplifiers, full-range speakers and other system components, as well as easy loop-through connection for multi-speaker setups.
Durable Construction & Versatile Mounting
The LIGNUM-8SUB's enclosure is constructed from birch plywood with a sprayed polyurea coating for excellent durability and long-term reliability in demanding commercial environments. A reinforced steel grille with acoustic foam and powder-coated finish protects the driver whilst maintaining a clean, professional black finish. Five M8 mounting points provide flexible options for flying, wall mounting and safety anchoring, whilst VESA 100x100 compatibility (4 x M6) enables structured mounting solutions in permanent installation environments. The LIGNUM-8SUB operates reliably across a temperature range of -20°C to +60°C.
