RetroSound R-TW84 Shallow Mount 4 Ohm Subwoofer
Bring powerful, full-bodied bass to your classic without sacrificing space. The RetroSound R-TW 84 is an ultra-thin 8-inch (20cm) subwoofer engineered for vehicles where every inch counts. With a mounting depth of just 2 inches / 5 cm, it's the perfect solution for classic cars and trucks that have limited room for modern audio upgrades. Built around a rigid cast aluminium basket and driven by a high-performance neodymium magnet structure, the R-TW84 delivers a tight, accurate low-end that complements your music rather than overpowering it. A durable polypropylene cone and Santoprene surround ensure smooth, natural bass reproduction, while the 1¾ inch voice coil with Kapton former keeps performance consistent under heavy load. Optimised for sealed enclosures from 3.4 to 28.3 litres (0.12 to 1 cubic foot), this subwoofer adapts easily to under-seat, behind-seat, or custom-fit installations, giving you flexibility without compromising sound. With 250 watts RMS (500 watts peak) of clean, controlled power handling, the R-TW84 brings modern performance to your classic ride in a design built for tight spaces.
For the ultimate setup, match the R-TW84 with the RetroSound Technophonic 5-Channel Class D Amplifier or the Stereophonic 3-Channel Class D Amplifier. These powerhouses deliver dedicated subwoofer output along with four or two full-range channels to drive your entire system. Together, the Technophonic and R-TW84 create a seamless balance of clarity and low-end punch, perfect for enthusiasts who want modern performance without taking away from their vehicle's classic character.
