ESB Audio 5.PB — 5000 Series Bookshelf Enclosure (pair) | HF Audio

ESB 5000 Series factory-tuned bookshelf enclosure. The correct box for 5000 Series drivers.

Built for the Passionate. Engineered for the Road. The ESB 5.PB is the purpose-built bookshelf enclosure for the 5000 Series — a matched pair of acoustic boxes designed and tuned by ESB for use with the 5000 Series woofers. Sold without speakers, it gives builders the correct enclosure volume, internal damping, and port tuning that ESB's engineers verified for optimal 5000 Series driver performance. Using a manufacturer-designed enclosure eliminates the acoustic guesswork that undermines even the best drivers. Internal volume, damping material, and baffle geometry are all calibrated for the 5.165 woofer's Thiele-Small parameters. The result is measurably better bass response and lower distortion than an approximated custom build. Sold as a pair without speakers. Install the 5.165 woofer in each box and connect to your passive or active crossover. The complete 5000 Series home/car reference speaker solution when used with the full 5000 component set.
