Steg - Handcrafted To Perfection In Italy Since 1983
Music is a powerful form of emotional expression, conveyed through sound waves. It has a unique ability to deeply affect individuals, more so that any other form of media. Steg is an Italian electronics manufacturer that has dedicated itself to creating these audio experiences, experiences that are authentic and faithful to the original source; conveyed with the intention of capturing the true essence of music. Steg strives to ensure that nothing hinders the pure enjoyment of music, not even the less-than-ideal acoustic conditions of a car interior. Since its conception in Italy in 1983 Steg has been designing and manufacturing high quality audio components specifically for automotive applications, with the sole aim of delivering unparalleled sound quality. With an unwavering commitment to breaking the limit of what's possible, Steg is the definitive solution when it comes to achieving world-class audio reproduction in vehicles.

SQ Series - For Those Chasing Quality Over Oblivion
When talking high-performance sound systems, not everyone wants to be overwhelmed to the point of tapping out. Matter of fact there's a entire cohort of audiophiles who're far more interested in a coherent and controlled rendition of their music. One that's enhanced with rich subsonic depths, articulate and linear middle registered and crystal-clear treble. It's for this market that Steg designed its SQ range of equipment. Speakers and subwoofers crafted to deliver exceptional control and precision; without the burden of hefty price, hefty weight and hefty power requirements.

Design Ideologies
When it comes to producing subbass without consuming vast amounts of space it takes a certain level of competence and cutting-edge designed to bring the concept to fruition. With decades of subwoofer design experience, Steg has combined innovation and engineering excellence to create a subwoofer that delivers high-performance bass, even in limited installation space. Thoroughly tested for durability and reliability, the SQW-8 and SQW-6 subwoofers offer an outstanding listening experience that meets the needs of both audiophiles and casual listeners alike.

One Powerful Performer
In the evolving world of car audio the demand for serious subsonics from increasingly compact spaces has never been greater. Punters want the depth, texture and impact of a true subwoofer without surrendering valuable cabin or boot space. Enter the SQW-8 and SQW-6 drivers; diminutive subwoofers engineered for audiophiles who demand uncompromising low-frequency performance from a remarkably compact footprint. Despite their size, these stellar subwoofers employ premium materials and sophisticated engineering. This allows them to deliver fast, controlled and authoritative bass where installation space is at a premium.

Superb Design
Underpinning their performance is a rigid aluminium alloy basket designed to minimise unwanted resonance and structural vibration, even when the driver is pushed hard. The lightweight yet exceptionally stiff aluminium honeycomb composite cone combines rigidity with low mass, while the flexible rubber surround allows the cone to respond quickly and accurately. Power handling is equally impressive, backed by a substantial magnet structure and a sizeable aluminium voice coil. The latter provides generous surface area for heat dissipation, helping the SQW-8 and SQW-6 units maintain stable and reliable performance during extended high-volume listening.

Design For Modernity
The SQW-8 and SQW-6 subwoofers are well suited to modern mono and multi-channel amplifier systems, while their compact dimensions open the door to a host of discreet installation possibilities. Under-dash enclosures, centre consoles and stealthy fibreglass boot panels are all viable options; allowing these subwoofers to be positioned closer to the cabin and integrated more seamlessly with the front sound stage. The result is a space-conscious bass solution that punches well above its diminutive dimensions. Adding genuine low-end authority without demanding a boot full of real estate.

Design Features
The brilliant engineering team at Steg are without peer. The sheer amount of technologies this astute team incorporates into each and every single design is astounding. Some of these design elements include:
– Reduced depth design.
– Works very well in under-seat, console, floor, door and many other installation mounting types.
– High efficiency due to large cone surface area.
– Very high volume output, due to extremely powerful motor structure.
– Exceptional low range performance, due to very low resonance frequency.
– Renders every detail of the music, due to minimisation of mechanical losses.
– Very high long-term power handling due to optimum voice coil ventilation and heat dissipation.
