ALL-ENVIRONMENT IN-GROUND
SUBWOOFER
the ultimate subwoofer
for outdoor listening
FULL RANGE, ALL-ENVIRONMENT, IN-GROUND SUBWOOFER
NEAR® has again rewritten the book on all-environment
audio. The all-new NEAR IGS12 all-environment subwoofer
delivers unparalleled low-frequency performance via ground-
breaking engineering and design. Legendary MDT and MLS
technologies have been continuously advanced since their
introduction in late 80’s and early 90’s. Coupled with our new
UDIO woofer design, NEAR woofer technology has reached
a new pinnacle of performance. This powerful woofer
technology is mated with an innovative enclosure design roto-
molded using NEAR exclusive LLDP (Linked Low-Density
Polyethylene) to create the toughest and most beautifully
versatile outdoor subwoofer available, at any price.
The striking design of the IGS12 masks unsurpassed
durability. The handsome yet rugged LLDP enclosure is
“color-through” so garden tools won’t harm its looks. This
ultra-rugged subwoofer is tough as nails and weatherproof,
yet attractive enough to install “free standing.” Its conical
design provides functional rigidity and extra security when
buried.

ALL-ENVIRONMENT IN-GROUND
OUTDOOR SUBWOOFER
FEATURES
• Purpose-built to be extremely durable in all weather
conditions, mounted in-ground
• Stylish design provides functional rigidity and extra
security when buried
• Anodized metal-alloy speaker cones (MDT) are
extremely stable in all environments
• UDIO (upside down/inside out) driver employs inverted
cone diaphragm driven by voice coils wound both inside
and outside the former for extremely accurate linearity,
even at extreme volume levels
• Signal connection via pre-terminated burial grade cable
exiting the bottom of the enclosure; the 8 conductor
cable provides access to 70V taps or select 8-ohm
operation
• MLS spiderless motor uses specially developed
Ferrouid to center the woofer voice coil and
eliminates the distortion generated by spiders
• Sealed magnet gap eliminates corrosion near voice coil
• LLDP (Linked Low-Density Polyethylene) color
through enclosure is acoustically inert and stands
tough under abuse in extreme conditions
• Advanced polymer cone surrounds resist UV rays,
chlorine, fertilizer and salt spray
• 70V multi-tap transformer standard for use with the
NEAR 6XL power amplier in 70V operation (can be
by-passed for 8-ohm systems)
