About the Classic 8
The Audio Physic Classic 8 is a compact floorstanding speaker based on the Classic 5, adding a dedicated woofer with extra-strong motor for significantly improved presence and power delivery. This 2½-way bass reflex design fills large rooms (20 sqm+) with high-quality sound. Woofer and midwoofer use woven glass fibre cones for low weight and high damping, preventing partial oscillations. The midwoofer has a fixed phase plug to reduce mid-range compression and cool the motor. Silk dome tweeter in horn-shaped indentation ensures wide, balanced imaging off-axis. Slim front baffle minimizes reflections. Black plinth with M8 bushings for spikes or optional VCF II M8 feet. Handmade in Germany with direct-wired crossover. Includes fabric grilles, spikes, spirit level, certificate, and manual. Currently manufactured.
