-

These subwoofers are capable of delivering very high output levels and
wide dynamic range. When properly placed, these subs will provide
smooth in-room bass response down to approximately 25Hz, with a peak
SPL of over 102dB in a normal sized room.

woofers in sealed enclosures, generates accurate deep bass with a mini
-
mum of distortion.

with virtually all brands of loudspeakers on the market. From the rock-
solid amplifier to the easily accessible controls, this is one of the most
versatile high performance subwoofers you can buy.
