Woofer Specifications

Aluminum Voice Coil Former

The voice coil former is black, anodized aluminum for highly efficient thermal transfer. This allows winding
high temperature copper wire in multiple layers for improved efficiency. This allows improved power
handling by effectively dissipating heat.

Extended Pole Piece

The pole piece has been extended to provide a more linear magnetic field for the operation of the woofer. This
lowers distortion and provides the woofer with better low frequency response.

Vented Oversized Back Piate

The back plate has been stepped deeper to allow the woofer more excursion without bottoming out. Additionally,
the back plate is vented with a radius aerodynamic back vent which efficiently and quickly circulates cool air
around the voice coil. This allows for more excursion and higher power handling without damaging the sub.

Voice Coii

The 4-layer, edge wound voice coil design of the speaker allows for a variety of impedance loads to be
configured when matched with multiple subs. Please continue to the wiring diagram portion of this manual for
possible configurations you can run. The Natural Sound subs have a dual 4 ohm voice coil operation.
