Through years of engineering expertise, hand craftsmanship, and critical testing procedures, we have created a wide range of products that reproduce music with all the clarity and richness you deserve.

[. . . ] This greatly improves the clarity of the speakers frequency response. The narrow surround also allows for greater surface area of the cone, thus increase efficiency for SPL. Flat Spider The speakers linear compliance is balanced through the use of a flat spider design. A flat spider provides symmetrical control of the voice coil through it's cone excursion. Linear cone excursion reduces harmonic distortion for improved sound quality. This allows for reduced mechanical distortion for better sound quality. Chrome Finish Chrome has long been an industry standard in terms of durability in protective metal finishes. We have spared no expense in this area, and not only is it a protective finish, but it is also a great addition to any plexi style enclosure. Convex Dust Cap The use of a convex dust cap is used to increase the cone rigidity and improve power handling by forcing more air through the voice coil. Added benefits include smooth frequency response. 6 Audiobahn Woofer Parameters AWIS10P AWIS12P AWIS15P Model # Vas does not represent the volume of a Box.

Port velocity translates to port noise, so the lower the number, the less port noise you will incur. An EBP of less then 45 is SUGGESTED for only a sealed box and greater then 65 for a ported box. EBP 114 104 85 The larger a sealed box is, the lower the sub will play, but the less power it will handle. The smaller a sealed box is, the higher the frequency the sub will play, and the more power it will handle. Model # AWIS10P NR AWIS12P NR AWIS15P NR Sealed Minimum (Cu.

For optimum performance, we recommend using 3/4" MDF (Medium Density Fiberboard) and internal bracing. The enclosure should be glued together along with support of screws or nails. [. . . ] If you are having problems with your system, we recommend you check the product carefully and thoroughly to confirm that the product truly has a manufacturer defect; as opposed to abuse, or other components in the system causing the failure. This might include having an Authorized Audiobahn Dealer look at the product to confirm the source of the problem. Any product found to have a manufacturer defect will be replaced with a new piece of the same or similar model, or repaired at the discretion of Audiobahn. Any product found to have no manufacturer defect will be returned to the sender at their cost. [. . . ]
