It combines a Ferrofluid-cooled tweeter with a textured polypropylene woofer for whole-home and light-commercial background audio, and is built for integrators who need a dependable entry point into the VX Extreme performance tiers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe VX80R pairs a 1.2-inch cloth-dome tweeter with an 8-inch textured polypropylene woofer on a rubber surround, delivering a 42Hz–20kHz (±3dB) frequency response at 90dB sensitivity and handling 5W minimum to 125W maximum RMS. Sonance's waveguide design is intended to widen and even out coverage across a room so listening quality stays consistent as a listener moves off-axis, and the CDX crossover is tuned to keep tonal balance steady at both low and high volumes. Installation supports either a standard one-stage mount or an optional two-stage module system, letting a crew rough-in wiring and the mounting frame before drywall and finish the speaker itself later in the project. The 10.125-inch cutout and 4.69-inch mounting depth are typical for an 8-inch round ceiling speaker, so it fits most standard joist bays.
