Ideal for system designers adding LF extension to outdoor installations, its sealed terminals and double dura-coated grille ensure durability, even in coastal conditions. The rugged enclosure offers reliable performance in all-weather setups, making it a dependable choice for resorts, stadiums, and public outdoor spaces. Built for both performance and protection, this subwoofer combines clarity, strength, and resilience in challenging outdoor applications.
CRAFTSMANSHIP
Painstakingly Perfect Production
Over the years, craftsmanship has been closely linked with small scale individualistic production. Back in 1972, we started the same way. As we grew in scale & size, it was difficult to build each speaker individually, but quality control was of utmost importance as so switching to a general assembly line was simply not an option. So we wrote up a code, one quite like enigma, to ensure quality control. We selected the right partners, got the right tools, and in cases where those weren't available, we invented them. We grew slower than most as our aim was to last longer than most.
