Description

The Dayton Audio Reference Series subwoofers take the quality and performance of the much acclaimed RS line into the subwoofer realm. As with the rest of the Reference Series, the main focus of these subwoofers is ultra-low-distortion. Second, third, and intermodulation distortion are kept extremely low by utilising three short-circuit paths within the motor structure. A durable aramid fibre spider and extensive venting throughout provide quiet and uniform excursion. The black anodised cone, rubber surround, and custom basket give this driver a unique, high-end look. Choose the high fidelity version for home systems when you are looking for clean, low bass and are not restricted by cabinet size.

Features

  • Extensively vented motor eliminates compression and allows quiet excursion
  • Lightweight black anodised aluminium cone for rigidity and lower moving mass
  • Triple shorting ring motor for ultra-low distortion
  • 2-layer coil for reduced back EMF
  • Suitable for sealed or vented enclosures
  • Highest quality materials throughout for long-lasting performance
