PLEASE RETAIN MANUAL FOR FUTRE USE AND REFERENCE

Audiobahn’s classic six-leg cast basket model has evolved into a fresh and innovative design for today’s
cutting-edge installation projects. Wholly manufactured with heavyweight high-pressure cast aluminum,
three durable stabilizers provide added durability employing bolt-tight construction linking them to the six
legs and the specially slotted T-YOKE allows for more efficient heat dissipation. But what’s most eyecatching about the six-leg family of subwoofers is its exclusive Crown, which hovers over the woofer’s cone,
providing protection in cramped installation environments and allowing ample space for cone excursion.
This new feature adds an edgy appeal that fits the image Audiobahn has maintained since its inception in
1997. The Crown, as well as the entire basket, features Audiobahn’s multi-textured surfacing of chrome and
satin aluminum making for a striking blend of smooth and rough. In addition, the venting plate is highlighted
with the recognizable Audiobahn anodized blue tone to add an alluring combination in chrome and color.
The AW1805Q however will keep the original 6-Leg Cast Basket and model # AW1805Q
