Woofers

Crossovers
Woofers
Woofer Cones: The woofer cones are a lightweight yet rigid
fiberglass laminate, minimizing distortion due to cone flex and improving the bass
response. The rubber surround is resistant to ultraviolet rays, temperature extremes,
and humidity to add to the speaker's reliability and longevity.
Woofer Baskets: The woofers' cast-aluminum baskets are vented
to dissipate heat, allowing them to play louder without the distortion caused by
power compression. A woofer phase plug further reduces heat buildup by allowing
air to move freely within the motor assembly for greater voice-coil cooling.
Terminals: The wire terminals on the woofers are spring posts;
they will accept bare wire up to 12 gauge.
Tweeters
Inverted-Dome Tweeters: The inverted-dome titanium tweeters are
stiff, light, and extremely efficient.
Mounting: The tweeters can be flush mounted or surface mounted
using the included housings. The surface mount housings are angled and offer two
mounting options, approximately 9° and approximately 40°.

Crossovers
External Crossover: The MS-52C system features external 2-way
passive crossovers using wire-wound resistors and polypropylene caps.
Tweeter Output Level: Each crossover allows you to select the
tweeter output level according to system requirements and personal preference. The
tweeter level can be set to 0 dB (flat), -3 dB, or -6 dB.
Tweeter Phase: The tweeter phase can also be easily reversed
using jumpers in the crossovers.
Crossover Connections: The crossover inputs and outputs are
screw terminals; they will accommodate spade connectors up to 0.3" wide.
Crossover Dimensions:
- Width: 3.08"
- Height: 1.15"
- Depth: 5.11"
