Celestion Expands Truvox Series with New 0820 Midbass Loudspeaker

April 9 2025, 02:10
Celestion continues to expand its Truvox product family, relaunched in 2024, drawing on Celestion’s long tradition of producing high-performing general-purpose speakers. Celestion announced the availability of the new Truvox 0820 8-inch ferrite magnet midbass driver, designed as a drop-in replacement and upgrade solution for a wide range of 8-inch midbass applications, including automotive aftermarket.
 

A fundamental part of the company's history, the Truvox brand was known for public address (PA) speakers throughout the mid 20th century. In 1949, Truvox purchased the company then known as Rola Celestion. Thus, the Celestion brand added a broad range of PA drivers to its stable, which continue to be found in the market. Now celebrating its 100th anniversary, Celestion continues to revitalize the Truvox brand and boosting an interesting strategy of creating a dedicated range of upgrade and replacement drivers. Celestion says it aims to make Truvox speakers the obvious choice when end users and installers alike are in search of outstanding value that refuses to sacrifice quality.
 
The Truvox 0820 is promoted as being equally capable as the principal woofer in two-way cabinets or as the mid-bass/midrange element in larger, three-way systems, restoring clarity and punch to existing setups. The Truvox 0820 is also an ideal choice for door placement in cars as it shares common mounting specifications. Its industry-standard fixing dimensions ensure simple drop-in replacement, and it is supplied with front and rear mounting gaskets for added positioning flexibility.
As with all Celestion Professional Audio products, the Truvox range features FEA optimized magnet assemblies to maximize performance while minimizing size and weight. The Truvox 0820 offers the lightest weight in its product class at just 3kg / 6.6lb, with a nominal diameter of 200mm/8”. The Truvox 0820 features a ferrite magnet, a 50mm/2” copper voice coil with a polyimide former, and a cellulose cone with a cloth-sealed surround. The triple roll surround enables a greater Xmax of 5mm/0.2” while ensuring stability at extremes of excursion, while the a robust pressed steel chassis ensures maximum energy transfer.
 
“The lightweight yet robust, Celestion Truvox 0820, represents the ideal upgrade for a multitude of 8” driver applications,” comments Nigel Wood, Managing Director at Celestion. “Whether in two-way, three-way, or automotive applications, the Truvox 0820 delivers the clarity, punch, and versatile integration you’ve come to expect from Celestion.”

The Truvox 0820 is rated for 250W @8Ω with a sensitivity of 96dB, operating in the 70Hz to 6kHz frequency range. The driver's mounting hole dimensions are 5.5x9.4mm with a mounting hole PCD of 193-201mm. Now shipping worldwide.
